Citronella Essential Oil

• Invigorating lemony scent


• Often used as a natural insect repellent


• Used to treat the symptoms of colds and flu

Citronella essential oil has a distinctive fragrance that people love and insects hate! Its scent is sweet with a hint of lemon and has an invigorating effect that is used in aromatherapy to soothe headaches and migraines, as well as to relieve the symptoms associated with the common cold and flu. It is a popular natural insect repellant when used in candles or burned in a diffuser. It can also be effective when added to lotions or creams and applied to the skin. Citronella is a natural astringent with antiseptic properties which makes it a great addition to facial cleansers and toners, especially for those with oily skin and acne. It is also though to reduce perspiration and be effective in eliminating the odour of perspiration, particularly smelly feet.

Blends beautifully with:

Bergamot, cedarwood, chamomile, geranium, lavender, lemon, and lime
