Ancient Apothecary Geranium Rose Essential Oil 

For topical, aromatherapy or dietary purposes.

Used in ancient times by the Egyptians for promoting radiant skin, geranium rose oil is still used for skin health support today. This sweet-smelling oil can also be uplifting and energizing.

Geranium rose oil is often a favorite in aromatherapy, since it is pleasant-smelling with a lovely mix of rose and citrusy scent. Delivering a balancing effect to the skin and more, geranium rose oil also functions as a grounding and calming essential oil.  

Geranium rose can offer a variety of beautifying purposes, including promoting healthy, smooth skin and healthy, shiny hair, along with its sweet, floral aroma.

The plants from which geranium rose essential oil is derived have their origins in South Africa, Madagascar, Egypt, Morocco and Réunion, but became known to European countries such as Spain, France and Italy during the 17th century.

With a sweet and rosy smell plus a hint of mint, it is mostly colorless, although it can sometimes have a light green hue to it. It’s a crisp, fresh-smelling essential oil comprised of many powerful components, including a-pinene, myrcene, limonene, menthone, linalool, geranyl acetate, citronellal, geraniol and geranyl butyrate.

Cautions: Possible skin sensitivity. Consult your physician before use, especially if pregnant, nursing, taking medication or if you have a medical condition. Avoid eyes, mucous membranes, and sensitive skin. Keep out of reach of children.
