Lemongrass Essential Oil 10 ml

Lemongrass essential oil (Cymbopogon flexuosus) is a favorite in spas and wellness centers for its clean, spa-like aroma. It is a powerful "functional" oil, known for its ability to tone the skin, soothe tired muscles, and provide an instant mental refresh.

Key Benefits and Uses

Mental Clarity & Focus: The sharp, citrusy scent with earthy undertones acts as a powerful morning "wake-up" oil, helping to clear the mind and sharpen concentration.

Post-Workout Muscle Relief: Widely used in sports massage; when diluted, it helps soothe sore muscles, tendons, and joints after intense physical activity.

Natural Insect Repellent: Similar to its relative Citronella, Lemongrass is highly effective at deterring mosquitoes and other outdoor pests while offering a more "culinary-fresh" scent.

Skin & Pore Toner: Its natural astringent properties help minimize the appearance of pores and balance oily skin. It is frequently added to DIY facial cleansers and soaps.

Natural Deodorizer: Lemongrass has potent antifungal and antibacterial properties, making it excellent for neutralizing stubborn odors in the kitchen, bathroom, or gym bag.

Digestive Support: Traditionally used in aromatherapy to help soothe the digestive tract and relieve occasional feelings of bloating or gas.

Safety and Directions

⚠️ High Skin Irritation Risk: Lemongrass is a "hot" oil due to its high citral content. Always dilute to a maximum of 0.7% (about 1–2 drops per tablespoon of carrier oil) to avoid skin sensitization or burning.
