Tangerine Essential Oil 10ml

Latin name: Citrus Nobilis

Extraction method: Cold expression

Mandarin essential oil is obtained from Citrus Reticulata by cold pressing the peel. Mandarin Petitgrain oil is also extracted in small quantities by steam distillation of the leaves and twigs. The oil is golden yellow-orange and has the aroma of a fresh orange. A whole group of citrus fruits falls under the mandarin umbrella, including Satsuma, Clementine, Dancy, Honey, Pixie, and tangerines.

This oil is very gentle and is therefore said to be used to treat even children and pregnant women, being one of the few oils used in this way. With its tonic and stimulating effect on both the stomach and the liver, it is useful for digestive problems. Mandarin oil is also useful for treating acne, oily skin, and blemishes. It is also supposed to help alleviate problems such as fluid retention and obesity. The oil, diluted to about 1-2% in a carrier oil, is gently massaged onto a child's belly to relieve tummy aches. A few drops in the bath calm hyperactive children. Used in an oil burner, it dissipates depression and relieves anxiety.

Mandarin oranges are so named because they were traditionally offered as gifts to the mandarins of China. In France, mandarin is considered a safe remedy for treating indigestion in children and the elderly, as it helps to strengthen the digestive system and the liver. Originating in southern China and the Far East, the mandarin was brought to Europe in 1805 and to America in 1845.
