Geranium Oil

The essential oil of Geranium is steam distilled from the leaves. Throughout the centuries it has been used for skin care and is considered a valuable oil because it revitalizes skin tissue, balances the production of sebum, and can be used for all skin types.

Geranium's fragrance is delightful and applying some in the morning can set a great tone for the day as emotions are balanced, spirits are lifted, and tension and stress are relieved. Science would probably describe Geranium as an adrenal cortex stimulant which regulates and balances the body's hormones.

Besides these anti-depressant qualities, Geranium has a stimulating effect on the lymphatic system and can help eliminate fluids in the body. It is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, astringent, haemostatic, antispasmodic, and antibacterial.

All in all, it is a wonderful essential oil that can be applied topically.
