Geranium Essential Oil

Pelargonium graveolens

Plant and Oil Description

Originally hailing from southern Africa, rose geranium oil is widely used for repairing and restoring healthy skin, aromatherapy, and a variety of physical and mental health benefits. The plant blossoms with pale pink and white flowers, but the soft, velvety leaves are the source of the plant’s rose-like floral aroma. Both the leaves and the flowers are edible and are often included in lavish desserts.

What’s it Good For?

1. Oily skin – Rose geranium oil can help control breakouts due to its antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antiseptic properties. Use SenseLAB’s rose geranium oil as an astringent or to spot treat problem areas.
2. Anti-aging properties – Rich in age-defying antioxidants, add SenseLAB’s rose geranium oil to a facial lotion, serum, or carrier oil to help reverse the damage caused to your skin by free-radicals, environmental toxins, and exposure to sunlight. 
3. Anxiety and depression – Clinical studies have shown that rose-like scents can lower anxiety levels, promote relaxation, and help foster a positive mood. In fact, hospitals have even studied the relaxing effect of rose geranium oil on women in first-stage labor. Add our rose geranium oil to a diffuser, warm bath, or massage oil when you need extra support during a stressful day.
4. Women’s health – Women suffering from reduced estrogen levels and other symptoms caused by menopause may benefit from aromatherapy treatment using rose geranium oil, which studies have shown increase levels of salivary estrogen.
5. Anti-inflammatory – Rose geranium oil may soon be a staple in anti-inflammatory treatments! A recent study showed the oil to be effective at reducing swelling without the harmful side-effects caused by current pharmaceutical medications. Apply SenseLAB’s rose geranium oil with a carrier oil to soothe irritated skin or sore muscles.

How to Use It?

Use as an astringent or as a spot-treatment to fight acne. Add to a facial lotion, serum, or carrier oil to benefit from our rose geranium oil’s anti-aging properties.
