Aromatic Scent: Geranium Bourbon is a strong
smelling oil with a floral aroma and a hint of mint. This uplifting oil has a
great all-over balancing effect and this extends to the skin - where it helps to
create balance between oily and dry skin, emotions - where it helps to relieve
feelings of stress and anxiety, and the hormone system. The strong smell is
particularly good to ward off mosquitoes and head lice and is good to relieve
fluid retention and help fight cellulite.
History: The plants originated from South
Africa as well as Reunion, Madagascar, Egypt and Morocco and were introduced to
European countries such as Italy, Spain and France in the 17th century.
Cautions: Geranium oil is not recorded as
indicating any side effects since it is non-toxic, non-irritant and generally
non-sensitizing. It can cause sensitivity in some people and due to the fact
that it balances the hormonal system, it should be avoided during pregnancy.
