The extraction of the aromatic fraction (hydrolat, essential oil) fresh aerial part of Lavandula vera was accomplished by steam distillation. The average yield of essential oil is 1-2%. The anti-inflammatory cream BIO obtained has interesting dermal properties. This cream is endowed with remarkable healing properties and anti-infectious. It leads to dermatological applications and opens the way eventually fruitful research. During this work we have formulated an anti-inflammatory cream 100% BIO whose active ingredient is the essential oil of lavender with these attractive properties. Optimization of formulation parameters made it possible to have a stable cream. Physicochemical analysis, sensory (with diagram properties evaluation) and comparative study with a reference cream (conventional) was able to show the qualities of our BIO cream.
