How to use

For aromatherapy, add a few drops to the water dish of an aroma lamp or to a diffuser. For facial care, the oil is diluted to a concentration of about 1–1.5% in a carrier oil, that is roughly 3–4 drops per 10 ml of base. For body and hair blends, a higher concentration of about 2–3% is used, that is roughly 6–9 drops added to the carrier oil. Do not apply the oil neat to the skin.

Suitable for

Suitable for those who enjoy citrus aromas and wish to prepare their own cosmetic blends or refresh the atmosphere at home through aromatherapy. It can be combined with carrier oils in the care of oily skin and hair.
