Description
Citrus aurantifolia
Lime Essential Oil is cold-pressed from the peel of the lime fruit. It possesses a fresh, sharp, intensely citrus aroma that is bright and zesty. Just a drop or two of Lime Essential Oil can add vibrant, uplifting energy to any blend, making it a refreshing alternative to lemon with a slightly sweeter, more tropical character.
Lime Essential Oil can be useful in diffuser blends intended to help uplift mood, ease mental fatigue, boost concentration, and create an energizing, purifying atmosphere. It is valued for its astringent and cleansing properties and is often used in diluted topical applications to support oily skin and improve circulation. Lime is phototoxic and should not be applied to skin that will be exposed to sunlight within 12 hours (see safety notes below).
Emotionally, Lime Essential Oil is refreshing and revitalizing, helping to ease apathy, mental exhaustion, and mild depression, while promoting feelings of clarity, joy, enthusiasm, and renewed vitality.
