Geranium Uses and Benefits


Geranium Oil Product Description

In Ancient Egyptian times, the essence of geranium flowers was used as a beautifying agent and for its divine floral perfume. The same is true today with Geranium essential oil, which holds incredible benefits for the hair and skin. The primary chemical component found in Geranium oil, geraniol, is the same compound that gives Rose essential oil its famed floral fragrance and powerful skincare properties. This shared component helps to give Geranium essential oil its fresh, rose-like, herbaceous aroma. When applied topically, Geranium oil can promote the appearance of clear skin and clean-looking hair. Whether you simply choose to diffuse it or add it to your personal care routine, Geranium essential oil is sure not to disappoint.
