Lemon Eucalyptus for Congestion
Lemon eucalyptus essential oil is commonly inhaled to help clear blocked airways and allow easier breathing.
Its cleansing properties also make lemon eucalyptus oil useful for cleaning and maintaining a hygienic home.
What is the difference between citriodora essential oil and regular lemon essential oil?
Citriodora oil, also known as lemon eucalyptus oil, has strong citrus notes but no botanical relation to lemons themselves. The Eucalyptus citriodora tree is native to Australia and is actually closer to citronella in terms of similarities.
How can citriodora essential oil be used for aromatherapy?
Citriodora oil can be added to an electric diffuser to help ward off insects and clear the airways. It can also be combined with a carrier oil and used as an all-natural bug repellent.
Can citriodora essential oil be used to repel insects?
Yes, citriodora oil is a highly effective insect repellent and can be used in sprays, diffusers, or topically applied to the skin with a carrier oil.
Our 100% Pure Lemon Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus Citriodora) Essential Oil is pale yellow in colour. Its scent lies somewhere between eucalyptus and citronella - it has a sharp, cleansing aroma with strong citrus notes.
This oil is extracted from the lemon eucalyptus tree, a subspecies of the eucalyptus tree native to Australia.
