Benefits and Uses of Lemon Oil
Lemon Essential Oil (Citrus Limonium)
The lemon essential oil, which has earned the nickname ‘Liquid Sunshine’ due to its yellow color and refreshing scent, has been used as Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years. Lemon trees that are native to Asia are sourced from the peel of the lemon from the Citrus Limonium plant.
The peel, rind, or skin of the lemon fruit, which contains volatile oil glands, is cold-pressed. The process pricks and rotates the peel as oil is released. Nearly a thousand lemon rinds are used to produce 1 lb. of Lemon Oil. The extracted oil has a pale, greenish-yellow color, and is thin with water viscosity, but the fragrance is fresh and sharp.
‘Lemon’ is a name derived either from the Persian word ‘limun’ or the Arabic word ‘laimun,’ or both, which means citrus fruit. It is believed that lemon trees are a cross between Bitter Orange and Citron. They were initially used for decorative purposes but were cultivated later for its resourcefulness.
The lemon essential oil has active chemical components that play a huge role in giving it a reputation for being a stimulating, cleansing, and purifying oil. The oil offers a wide range of uses and benefits that includes, but not limited to, the following:
