Blue/German Chamomile
Blue Chamomile is also called German Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla). The blue color of this essential oil comes from the chamazulene during the distillation process. Chamazulene is what gives this oil its anti-inflammatory properties. Blue oils will get the best shelf life when they are refrigerated. When the oil starts turning green, that means the anti-inflammatory properties are not as strong anymore.
