lime cold-pressed - italy
botanical name: citrus aurantifolia
Cold-pressed Lime essential oil's aroma is strong, sharp and refreshing, like the fresh cut fruit. Lime's odour effect is uplifting & cooling. Reminds me of a fresh lime, cut to run around the rim of the margarita glass.
Lime essential oil is astringent, antibacterial, and antiseptic; Lime oil balances overactive sebaceous glands that lead to oily or blemished skin, & helps clear acne. It revitalizes under-active and mature skin and helps with cellulite by improving circulation and encouraging the elimination of wastes. Lime oil exfoliates dead skin with a slight peeling action enlivening the complexion. Long-term treatment with lime oil reduces broken capillaries and varicose veins, softens scar tissue and minimizes warts and corns. Lime oil can also strengthen brittle nails and hair.
Lime essential oil blends well with, Geranium, Bergamot, Grapefruit, Lavender, Lemon Myrtle, Patchouli, Petitgrain, Rosemary, Sage, Tea tree, Ylang Ylang and most other citrus and herb essences.
