Cinnamon Leaf Oil
A long time ago, I became fascinated with cinnamon as a bactericide/fungicide, due to the contained cinnamaldehyde. The powder is great if carefully dabbed on a fresh wound, as it is a tremendous desiccant as well, so "seals off" the cut and protects it from infection. Warning: DO NOT use on roots, as the desiccation will kill them. That led to me concocting both alcohol and water extracts, that can be used as sprays.
Later, I discovered cinnamon leaf oil, which contains the much more powerful bactericide and fungicide, the alcohol eugenol. (I know it's more powerful as I used it to eradicate a toenail fungus in about 2-3 weeks, while even prescription treatments take a year...)
I have made two extracts with that, one with alcohol (~1/4 tsp/quart of rubbing alcohol), and another with liquid lanolin when you need a mostly waterproof compound to dab.
Anyway, I finally ran out of the 2 ounce bottle I originally purchased, so have just bought a few more and am offering them for sale at my cost with shipping included.
