4 oz Bottle of Pure Lemon Essential Oil Review

This year I can't get enough lemons. I've been squeezing lemons to make lemonade, I also like to smell lemon essential oils. La Lune Naturals gave me a 4 ounce bottle of pure lemon essential oil to review. 


Not all essential oils are the same. This one is not for internal use, but it's still wonderful. I love using it in lotion, homemade cleaners, and in the kid's shampoo. I use peppermint oil in mine right now.

100% Pure Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon oil blends well with many other essentials oils, including lavender, rose, neroli and sandalwood just to name a few. This makes lemon oil one of the most popular essential oils among herbalists or for those who practice aromatherapy.


Immune Support

If you've never used essential oils, they are great for allergy sufferers. I just put drops of the oils in boiling water when I'm in the kitchen, and breathe it in. This process doesn't help long term for me. It most certainly helps short term! I think it works better than any other medicine on the market. All the sudden I can breathe, and smell! 

If my allergies are really bad I use the netti pot, boil essential oils in water, and that opens me up enough to get good sprays of Flonase in my nose. If I don't do those first 2 steps, the Flonase will just drip right on out of my nose. That's how swollen, and stuffed up I get.

La Lune Naturals lemon oil is highly concentrated and should be diluted with a carrier oil, such as Coconut Oil, Almond Oil, or Olive Oil, prior to use on the skin. Also dilute before using in sensitive areas such as the face, neck, etc.
