Our organic Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil (Blue Gum) is steam distilled from the long, waxy leaves of Eucalyptus globulus trees growing right here in sunny South Africa.
A towering evergreen that can reach up to 90 metres in height, the Blue Gum is the most recognised and widely referenced Eucalyptus species worldwide. When “Eucalyptus Oil” is mentioned without specification, this is most often the variety being referred to.
Each and every batch of Amala essential oils is tested by an independent international laboratory before being sent to us. A Certificate of Analysis is issued, stating the purity of the oil.
REPORTED BENEFITS AND USES
AROMATHERAPY
Respiratory & Immune Support
Eucalyptus Globulus is renowned for its powerful, clarifying aroma and is especially valued for respiratory wellness. Ideal for diffusion, it is often used at the first signs of seasonal discomfort to help support healthy lung function and overall immune resilience. It also assists in creating a fresher, cleaner environment by helping to reduce unwanted bacterial, fungal, and viral presence.
Body & Muscle Support
This invigorating oil may help ease minor pain, inflammation, and muscle tension, while gently stimulating circulation to bring warmth and comfort to the body.
Skin & Home Care
With its natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, Eucalyptus Globulus is often included in skincare formulations for troubled skin, minor burns, or irritation. It can also be used in natural cleaning blends or spritzers, and as a plant-based insect repellent.
EMOTIONALLY & ENERGETICALLY
Refreshing and mentally clarifying, Eucalyptus oil helps cut through mental fog, reduce negative thought patterns, and restore focus. Its revitalising aroma is especially supportive during times of fatigue, overwhelm, or emotional heaviness — bringing clarity, energy, and renewed vitality.

Diffuse & Inhale: Breathe in your favorite essential oils using an essential oil diffuser or apply to your wrists and inhale. You can also add a few drops to your hands and form a 'tent' over your nose and inhale. A great way to diffuse when you are on the go is to use diffuser jewellery or a car diffuser.
SAFETY
Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant or under a doctor’s care, consult a physician. Avoid contact with eyes.
Do not use internally unless instructed by a licensed aromatherapist or physician. Essential oils are highly concentrated and powerful oils and can cause serious harm if ingested without the necessary expertise required - for this reason, ingestion of essential oils is NOT recommended.
We do not recommend using essential oils on pets, unless under the care of a veterinarian or aromatherapist.
