Neroli essential oilEssential Oils for skincare

1. Rejuvenate your skin

When applied on the skin, Neroli Essential Oil intensely moisturises the skin and boosts the natural process of cell regeneration.

To maximise this effect, look to other Essential Oils such as Green Mandarin Essential Oil for a deep targeting of wrinkles and fine lines.

2. Combat acne

Neroli Essential Oil has powerful antibacterial properties, which makes it a prime ingredient to target breakouts and balance the sebum production. Rich in antioxidants, it combats free radicals, which can soothe acne-induced inflammation and redness.

If you are really looking to eliminate skin imperfections, you can also look to Ylang-Ylang Essential Oil.

3. Get a better night’s sleep

Thanks to its calming effects, Bitter Orange Essential Oil can help you achieve a better night’s sleep.

Dr Couic Marinier says: “Upon prescribing a patient who had suffered from insomnia for 10 years with Neroli oil, after only two nights, the Neroli oil worked where all other medications had failed, allowing her to sleep deeply and peacefully throughout the night”.

4. Treat stress, depression and anxiety

Neroli Essential oil is also a natural remedy for anxiety, depression and stress. Inhale the powerful scent and breathe in deeply to instantly relax your mind.

5. Manage pain and inflammation

When applied topically Neroli Essential Oil has active ingredients that have the ability to target acute inflammation and reduce sensitivity to pain.

Hydrate

Neroli Essential Oil is a hydration powerhouse, with an incredible ability to soften, replenish and lock in moisture. Applied topically, this bitter orange oil will provide your skin with a protective barrier to ensure that your complexion remains radiant and dewy all day long.

Revive

Bitter Orange Essential Oil’s powerful skin-reviving properties can help accelerate your complexion to the picture of radiant health. It stimulates cell regeneration, to heal the skin.

Purify

With its antibacterial properties, Neroli Essential Oil is the ultimate cleanser thanks to its purifying citrus elements. However, unlike other citrus Essential Oils like Lemon oil or Sweet Orange oil , it is not phototoxic so doesn’t increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun. It is therefore the perfect ingredient to rejuvenate your skin all year round!

Sourced from the orange tree in the fruitful climate of the Mediterranean and Africa comes the hero ingredient: Neroli Essential Oil, also known as Bitter Orange Essential Oil. This powerful and curative oil has been used for centuries to heal the body and the mind.

The tale of Princess Nerola

Neroli essential oil has a strong heritage; dating back as far as the 17th century, where it was adored by Italian aristocrats. The Duchess of Bracciano was famed for her use of the Bitter Orange Essential Oil, infusing her gloves with its aroma and adding a few drops to her bath – she loved it so much that she was hailed as ‘Princess Nerola’.

The oil of romance

Neroli Essential Oil has long been used in weddings because of both its calming properties and its aphrodisiac effects.

Speed is of the essence

Small, white and beautiful to look at, the delicate Neroli flowers are hand-picked and distilled through low-pressure steam; however, it is imperative to move quickly as the petals quickly lose their famous fragrance.
