HEM Mystic Citronella Aroma Oil

Citronella aroma oil, derived from the leaves and stems of the Cymbopogon plant (often Cymbopogon nardus or Cymbopogon winterianus), is known for its fresh, citrusy scent with earthy undertones. The key benefits of using citronella aroma oil:

Natural Insect Repellent:  Citronella aroma oil is most commonly recognized for its ability to repel insects, particularly mosquitoes, flies, and ants. The strong citrus aroma of citronella masks the scents that attract insects and helps to keep them away. This makes citronella oil a popular choice in diffusers during warmer months.

Promotes Mental Clarity and Focus:  The invigorating scent of citronella aroma oil can help boost alertness and improve concentration. It is known to help clear mental fog and promote focus, making it an excellent choice for use in workspaces or during study sessions. Citronella’s refreshing fragrance has a stimulating effect on the mind, helping to improve productivity and cognitive function.

Mood Uplifting and Stress Relief:  Citronella aroma oil has mood-enhancing properties that help uplift the spirits and alleviate feelings of anxiety or stress. The fresh and bright aroma is invigorating and can have a positive impact on your emotional well-being. It can help to relieve feelings of mental fatigue, reduce tension, and create a calming atmosphere, especially in stressful situations.

Antibacterial and Antifungal Properties:  Citronella aroma oil has natural antibacterial and antifungal properties that can help purify the air and fight infections.  When diffused, it can help remove harmful bacteria and fungi from the environment. 

Improves Respiratory Health:  Citronella aroma oil can help improve breathing and relieve symptoms of respiratory congestion. It has a fresh, cleansing effect on the airways, which can help clear nasal passages and reduce coughing. Diffusing citronella oil can also be beneficial for people suffering from colds, allergies, or sinus congestion by easing respiratory discomfort and promoting easier breathing.

Acts as a Natural Deodorizer:  The fresh, citrusy fragrance of citronella oil makes it an excellent natural deodorizer. It helps to neutralize bad odors and freshen the air. 

Precautions: Pregnant women and young children should consult with a healthcare provider before using citronella oil, as it can have stimulating effects and may not be suitable for everyone.  This oil is not for topical use nor for ingestion.
