Oil of the Week ::: Geranium

Spring has sprung & the Geraniums are in bloom!
Geranium ::: Pelargonium Graveolens
Earlier this week I shared a tip using Geranium in a
hair-strengthening de-tangler. Well, here are some more
amazing Geranium facts!

PRIMARY BENEFITS
• Promotes healthy skin & hair
• Helps calm nerves & lessen stress
• Naturally repels insects 

USES
• Use in an aromatherapy steam facial to beautify skin.
• Add a drop to your moisturizer for a smoothing effect.
• Geranium is great for both dry and oily hair. Apply a few drops to your shampoo or conditioner bottle, or make your own deep hair conditioner.
• Diffuse aromatically for a calming effect.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE 
Diffusion ~ Use three to four drops in the diffuser of your choice.
Internal use ~ Dilute one drop in 4 fl. oz. of liquid.
Topical use ~ Apply one to two drops to desired area. Dilute with Fractionated Coconut Oil for sensitive  skin.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Uses of Geranium essential oil date back to ancient Egypt when Egyptians used Geranium oil to beautify skin. In the Victorian era, fresh geranium leaves were placed at formal dining tables as decorative pieces and to be consumed as a fresh sprig if desired; in fact, the edible leaves and flowers of the plant are often used in desserts, cakes, jellies, and teas. (I've even had them in salad!)

A member of the Pelargonium genus of flower species, Geraniums are grown for their beauty and as a staple of the perfume industry. While there are over 200 different varieties of Pelargonium flowers, only a few are used as essential oils.

As an essential oil, Geranium has long been used to promote the appearance of clear skin and healthy hair — making it ideal for your own skin and hair care products. It calms nerves and lessens feelings of stress. Geranium is known to naturally repel insects.
