Lemon Oil Expressed - Certified Organic
Citrus limon (L.) Burm.F.
Country of Origin Italy / Spain
SKU 0062
The aroma of this organic oil has more depth and complexity compared to the conventional one
Lemon essential oil is a versatile, cold-pressed extract from lemon peels known for its uplifting aroma, natural cleaning properties, and skincare benefits. It's widely available from reputable brands and can be used in diffusers, diluted for topical application, or added to homemade cleaners.
Key Uses and Benefits
Lemon essential oil is renowned for its versatility and is often nicknamed "liquid sunshine" due to its bright, purifying properties.
- Aromatherapy & Mood: Diffusing lemon oil can help reduce anxiety, combat mental fatigue, improve concentration, and uplift your mood. Studies have shown it can be an effective stress reliever.
- Cleaning: The oil possesses natural antiseptic and antibacterial properties, making it an excellent ingredient in homemade, eco-friendly cleaning solutions for surfaces, cutting boards, and laundry. It is effective at cutting grease.
- Skincare & Wellness: When properly diluted with a carrier oil, it can help tone, cleanse, and brighten the skin, control acne-causing bacteria, and nourish hair for added shine. It also has antifungal properties.
Phototoxicity Warning: Like other citrus oils, lemon oil is phototoxic, meaning it can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight and UV light, leading to irritation or burns. Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 12 hours after topical application, or apply it only at night.
Perfect for: freshening the home, air purification, morning focus, afternoon slumps, creating atmosphere
How to Use Lemon
In a diffuser: Add 4–6 drops to your diffuser with water. Run for 30–60 minutes to fill your space with natural aroma.
Topical application: Dilute 2–3 drops in 10ml of a carrier oil such as our Organic Jojoba Oil. Apply to pulse points, temples or the area of concern for general wellbeing. Always patch test before first use.
In the bath: Blend 4–6 drops with a tablespoon of carrier oil, then add to warm running water for a therapeutic aromatic soak.
For massage: Add 12–18 drops per 30ml of carrier oil (2–3% dilution) for a therapeutic full-body massage.
Blends well with: Lavender, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Tea Tree.
Safety: For external use only. Always dilute before skin application. Not recommended during the first trimester of pregnancy without professional advice. Keep away from children and pets.
Important: Lemon contains furanocoumarins that increase skin sensitivity to UV light. Avoid direct sunlight or UV exposure on treated skin for 12 hours after topical application.
