Extraction method: cold expression

Lime essential oil is obtained from Citrus aurantifolia. The oil is extracted from the peel of the unripe fruit by cold expression. Lime oil has a strong citrus aroma that instantly uplifts the mood.

Lime oil, when used in an oil burner, stimulates a tired mind and helps relieve anxiety, apathy, and depression. It is useful in reducing fevers associated with colds, sore throats, and flu. It boosts immunity while relieving coughs, bronchitis, sinusitis, and asthma. It is said to be useful for arthritis, rheumatism, and poor circulation, as well as obesity and cellulite. This oil is good for the skin, reducing oiliness and acne, and helps with herpes, insect bites, and cuts. However, cold-pressed oil can cause photosensitivity and irritate more sensitive skin.

Lime is native to Asia, was introduced to Europe by the Moors, and from there migrated to the Americas.
