Lime Hydrosol acts as a natural refresher, helping to tone and brighten your skin, leaving you feeling revitalized. Lime’s zesty scent cuts through confusion and fog, symbolizing clarity and a fresh start. It’s about shedding what no longer serves you and embracing the new with open arms and a clear mind.
Lime is cleansing, stimulating to lymph, and both antimicrobial and antiseptic. It is also astringent and leaves your hands feeling clean without stripping your skin. Lime is uplifting and refreshing adding a little lift to your mood every time you spray it on.
Two of the main chemical components of Lime Essential oil are d-Limonene and y-Terpinene.
Limes are rich in Flavonoids. d-Limonene is the main plant component in citruses. It is a powerful immune stimulant, it boosts white blood cells and also increases antibody producing cells in the spleen. It is also anti-bacterial, it can be used to heal bacterial related skin issues and to calm acne.
d-Limonene is also a powerful antioxidant protecting our cells from free radicals and protecting brain health as well.
Another plant chemical in lime is y-Terpinene which is anti-inflammatory and helpful at relieving pain.
And y-Tepinene is also anti-viral, helping to prevent the spread of viruses. It is not as successful in treating cold sore type of viruses but seems to be used best to kill viral airborne particles or
any viral particles not yet in a human cell.
Likely components from the hydrosol include a-terpineol, 1.8 cineole, linalool, terpinene-4-ol
I combined the lime hydrosol with lavender essential oil, the lavender and lime combo aroma
Lavender derives its name from the latin verb lavare which means “to wash”. It is anti-microbial and cleansing as well as calming and relaxing to your nervous system. It is a go-to in aromatherapy for many afflictions. “There is practically no health condition for which lavender would not provide some kind of relief” is a common statement.
