Lemon Essential Oil

Energizing, cleansing, balancing



Lemon essential oil is a terrific energizer and cleanser. It balances your nervous system, calming racing, jittery nerves while boosting healthy energy and clearing your mind.


Aromatherapy lemon oil is famous for being a great cleanser, and it's used in everything from skin and hair care to homemade cleaning recipes.


Lemon strengthens the immune system and cleanses the body. It can help bring down a fever and is good for throat infections, bronchitis, asthma and flu symptoms. (Use with lavender for phlegmy coughs.)


Lemon oil soothes nerves and may relieve headaches and migraines.


In skincare, it's used for clearing up acne, cleaning greasy skin and hair, as well as removing dead skin cells and easing cold sores, mouth ulcers and insect bites.
