Product Details

Name: Geranium

Scientific Name: Pelargonium graveolens

Method of extraction: Steam distillation

Part of plant: Leaves

Country of origin: Egypt

Geranium essential oil is derived from the leaves and flowers of the geranium plant, a fragrant perennial herb. It has a rose, sweet and slightly earthy aroma, much appreciated in perfumery, known for its natural balancing and uplifting properties.

Ideal for skincare, this oil is a wonderful skin tonic. In addition to being astringent, it brightens the skin and purifies, treating imperfections and preventing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is also used in aromatherapy to promote emotional balance and ease stress and anxiety.

Unlike roses, geranium essential oil is extracted from the leaves and stems.

\nThis oil has a very strong anti-infective property, whether against bacteria, fungi or mites. It has antistaphylococcal activity (Staph doré), even in resistant germs. Also effective against several germs responsible for urogenital infections. 

Precautions

Not recommended for pregnant women and children under 3 years of age.

Its use in wounds can cause a tingling sensation, thus its diluted use is indicated, and according to the guidance of a professional.

It is preferable to carry out a skin test to verify possible allergic effects due to the concentration of geraniol, citronellol and linalool.
