About the ingredients:

Hemp Seed Oil is an anti-inflammatory and has been shown to relieve neurological pain associated with headaches and migraines.

Argan Oil is full of antioxidants and is added here for its soothing properties.

Jojoba Oil is another soothing antioxidant oil used to dilute the potency of some of the essential oils to make them safe for use on the face.

Camphor essential oil has been shown to suppress pain-signaling pathways and weaken neurogenic inflammation.

Menthol helps to relax muscles and soothe pain as well as clear chest and nasal congestion.

Cajeput is beneficial for the relief of coughs, colds and congestion. It also may assist in relieving headaches that accompany the flu. It is a natural remedy for managing pain. The oil contains a compound called cineole (21.1%). When applied to the skin, the cineole can create a warming sensation and promote blood circulation, which has been found to assist in relieving pain beneath the skin.

Peppermint oil is one of the most commonly used essential oils to treat tension headaches and migraines. It contains menthol, which can help relax muscles and ease pain.

Rosemary oil has powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain-relieving) properties. It's been used in folk medicine for hundreds of years for stress reduction, pain relief, and improved circulation, which can all help headaches.

Wintergreen oil is primarily methyl salicylate, an active ingredient which is closely related to aspirin and has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.

Eucalyptus oil is used to open up the nasal passages, clear the sinuses, and help relieve sinus tension that can cause headaches.

Lavender essential oil is commonly used for stress relief and relaxation. There's also strong evidence that lavender can help treat headaches and migraine. Breathing in the scent from lavender essential oil can help acute management of migraine attacks.
