GERANIUM OIL USES

Used in aromatherapy applications, the sweet scent of Geranium Oil is uplifting, energizing, and inspiring, offering a sense of positivity and good health, both physically and mentally. To diminish feelings of sadness and stress and to enhance cognitive function, diffuse 2-3 drops of Geranium Essential Oil in an essential oil diffuser. This has the added benefit of soothing a sore throat and addressing sinus infections.

For a cosmetic fragrance that balances the mood and that can be applied to the wrist, the inside of the elbows, and the neck in the same way as a regular perfume, first select a Carrier Oil of a personal preference. In a dry glass container, pour in 2 Tbsp. of the chosen Carrier Oil, then add 3 drops Geranium Essential Oil, 3 drops Bergamot Essential Oil, and 2 drops Lavender Essential Oil. Cover the container and shake it well to thoroughly blend all the oils together. To use this natural, homemade perfume, simply dab a few drops onto the aforementioned pulse points. Alternatively, a cosmetic fragrance can be made in the form of a natural deodorant by combining 5 drops of Geranium Essential Oil and 5 Tbsp. of water in a spray bottle. This refreshing and anti-bacterial body spray can be used daily to eliminate body odors.

Used in topical applications, Geranium Oil’s astringency makes it beneficial for tightening skin that is affected by symptoms of aging, such as wrinkles. To firm the appearance of sagging skin, simply add 2 drops of Geranium Essential Oil to a face cream and apply it twice daily until there are visible results. To tighten larger areas of skin, create a massage oil by diluting 5 drops of Geranium Essential Oil in 1 Tbsp. of Jojoba Carrier Oil before massaging it into the affected areas, concentrating especially on muscles that are likely to sag. Geranium Oil is reputed to not only tone the abdomen and support the growth of new skin, but to also facilitate the efficacy of the metabolism.
