Essential Oil Blend Benefits:

  • Uplifting

Safety Precautions:

This blend contains two essential oils which are photosensitive, meaning it may make your skin more sensitive to the sun than usual for 12–24 hours after topical application.

When using essential oils topically, it is important to dilute them properly. Essential oils can be strong and may cause skin irritation or other adverse reactions if applied to the skin without diluting.

Completing this trio is spearmint essential oil.

Let's explore and highlight the uses and advantages of each essential oil found in Mellow Mint.

1. Grapefruit Essential Oil

Grapefruit essential oil is extracted from the peel of the grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) fruit. Its aroma is refreshing, citrusy, and uplifting. Here are a few benefits of grapefruit essential oil:

Extracted from the peel of the lemon fruit (Citrus limon), lemon essential oil offers a fresh, citrus scent that invigorates the senses. Here are some notable benefits of lemon oil:

a) Cleansing and Detoxifying: Lemon essential oil is known for its purifying qualities, making it an excellent choice for cleaning surfaces around the house. In addition, it can support detoxification processes within the body, aiding in digestion and promoting a healthy liver.
