Lime Essential Oil

Common Name: Lime (Key Lime)

Latin Name: Citrus aurantifolia

Aroma: Over the years, I have become a fan of lime and this particular essential oil really sings to me! It reminds me of margaritas with its fresh, tart citrusy aroma. It has just a hint of sweetness behind the fruit forward notes.

Blends with: Citrus oils, Clary Sage, Geranium, Ginger, Alligator Juniper, Lavender, Lemongrass, Nutmeg, Palmarosa, Petitgrain bigarade, Mandarin Petitgrain, Rose absolute, Rosemary ct cineole, and Ylang Ylang.

Energetic Qualities: Refreshes and uplifts, eases anxiety and fear, brings sunshine and light to fight feelings of depression.

Recommended applications: Diffuse, topical application using safe dilution ratios, steam inhalation.

Aromatherapist notes: Previously, I chose to offer a steam distilled lime for many reasons, one of them being the concern of phototoxicity. However, I have found the cold pressed essential oil to be more therapeutic, particularly in its uplifting actions and wonderful in supporting the immune system.
