Salvia officinalis oil, is the essential oil obtained by steam distillation from the dried leaves of Salvia officinalis, the sage plant (Red sage; Garden sage; Sage), an evergreen shrub from the labiate family.
Salvia officinalis oil is used in cosmetic formulations. The extract acts as a tonic (creates a pleasant feeling on skin or hair). Sage oil also has a masking effect (reduces or inhibits an undesirable inherent odour or taste of the product).
