BENEFITS OF USING THE OIL

Fresh, fluffy and fragrantly assertive, lime essential oil shares much of its therapeuticprofile with its citrus cousin, lemon, and shares many of the same astringent, toning and mood-enhancing properties.

Lime oil is often used in facial and body cleansers for its purifying properties and uplifting scent. Lime essential oil can help promote a youthful appearance, reducing the appearance of fine lines, uneven pigmentation and loss of elasticity.

Calcium has a tightening effect, making it perfect to use to help rejuvenate the skin. Calcium in hair care products helps improve shine by allowing the outer layer of the hair strand, the cuticle, to lie flat and reflect more light.

In aromatherapy, the refreshing but not too sweet properties of lime oil can assist in increasing mental clarity and alertness and can also promote feelings of positivity, calmness and harmony. It is often used in blends with other cleansing and uplifting oils for greater refreshing power and to enhance emotional balance and well-being.

Lime essential oil is also effective against mosquitoes and insects, as these buzzing nuisances react negatively to citrus scents and stay away from areas where these scents are present.
