The scientific magic behind it
Before we dive into the many uses, let's take a closer look at the science. Lemon Essential Oil is obtained by cold-pressing the peel of lemons, extracting the precious aromatic compounds in liquid form.
The result is a vibrant and refreshing oil, rich in monoterpenes such as limonene, which are not only responsible for the characteristic scent but also offer numerous health-promoting properties.
Essential lemon oil has proven itself during cold and flu seasons, as it reduces the germ load in the air. It also works against skin impurities and is therefore used in skin care.
Lemon oil is also a good degreaser and is therefore used in many cleaning agents.
Application examples, Ahoy!
We have put together a few application tips for natural lemon oil for you:
Natural energy boost: Do you know that feeling when the alarm clock rings and you could just flee back to dreamland? That's where lemon essential oil comes in! Add a few drops to your fragrance lamp and the invigorating scent will waft through the room to awaken your senses. This refreshing aroma can give you the boost you need to start the day off with a bang.
Mood lifter: A cloudy day can dampen your spirits - but not when you have lemon essential oil in your arsenal! The fruity aroma has been shown to have mood-enhancing properties. Whether you use it in your diffuser or add a few drops to your bathwater, you'll feel like the sun is shining into your soul.
Spice up cleaning: Cleaning is often a tedious task, but lemon oil makes it a little more enjoyable! Mix a few drops of lemon oil with water, vinegar, and baking soda, and you have an effective, naturally scented all-purpose cleaning product. Not only will your surroundings shine, but the fresh citrus scent will also delight your senses.
Skin love: Your skin deserves love, and lemon oil can give it to you. Mix a few drops of lemon essential oil with a carrier oil like jojoba or coconut oil, and you have a refreshing body oil blend that not only hydrates your skin but also leaves a subtle citrus scent. Note, however, that lemon oil can be photosensitizing, so it's best to use it in the evening or in combination with sunscreen.
Concentration turbo: Whether at work or while studying - we can all use a little concentration boost sometimes. That's where lemon oil comes in! The refreshing scent can improve your mental clarity and focus. A few drops in your desk diffuser and you'll be ready to face the challenges of the day.
Picnic Party: Summer time equals picnic time, but mosquitoes can crash the party. Don't worry, lemon oil has a solution!
