How to Use Our Kids Lavender Pillow Mist
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the kids lavender pillow mist made from?
It's a 60ml pillow mist scented only with our own lavender essential oil, the same formula as our adult Sleep Spray in a kids' cat or dog bottle. The oil is Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), grown and steam-distilled on our family farm in Newstead, Waikato.
Will the kids pillow mist stain my child's pillowcase?
No, it's non-staining on pillowcases and sheets when you mist lightly. Spray the pillowcase a few minutes before bed and let it dry before your child lies down. It comes in a cat or dog bottle, so they can choose their favourite.
How do I use the kids pillow mist?
Hold the bottle about 20–30cm away and lightly mist your child's pillow, bedding or sleepwear before bedtime. Let it settle for a few moments before they lie down. Don't spray it onto skin or near their face, and store it somewhere cool and dry.
Does the kids pillow mist contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
No, it doesn't contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk. Lavender essential oil is the only scent in it, with no fragrance oil. The full ingredient list is on this page.
Who is the kids pillow mist suitable for, and is it a good gift?
It suits children who enjoy a bedtime story-and-cuddle routine, and parents who'd like a soft lavender scent on the pillow. Letting them pick the cat or dog bottle makes it a sweet birthday or Christmas gift. If you're pregnant or buying for a young child, check with your healthcare provider first.
Where does the lavender in this kids pillow mist come from?
It comes from our own family farm in Newstead, Waikato, New Zealand. We grow Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super') spray-free and steam-distil the oil ourselves on the farm, then use it in this gentle kids' pillow mist.
How long does delivery take, and can I order from overseas?
We send every order by tracked courier within New Zealand: usually 3–5 working days in the North Island and 5–7 in the South Island and rural areas. You can order from anywhere in the world for delivery to a New Zealand address, but we only deliver within New Zealand.
