Background

Cymbopogon flexuous, also known as Cochin grass, Malabar grass, or Lemongrass, is a dense shrub found in moist regions of India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and other South-East Asian countries. The shrub has razor-shaped leaves that emit a strong fragrance with a lime-like hint. Lemongrass Essential Oil has been used to produce perfumes and natural remedies for centuries. Its trade began in the early 19th century and expanded globally due to its many benefits.

General Information

Ecodrop's Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil 10ml is produced from leaves of Cymbopogon flexuous grown in eastern India and certified under UK Soil Association Organic Standards. The top portion of the leaf holds the highest concentration of oil, which depletes under midday sun. To retain potency, we harvest early morning when dew is present. Leaves are shade-dried and steam-distilled, preserving the purity of this Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil.

A wonderfully calming scent with multiple uses - entirely natural and cruelty free.
On the advice of a friend who is a professional well-being coach, I am starting to explore the benefits of essential oils as an alternative scent for the home, and as part of my self-care routine. Lemongrass is great for meditation as it is very calming, and it is also a lovely scent to wear on my wrists to keep me calm during the day. It makes the house smell great too. The ebook is really helpful because it suggests all the ways you can use different essential oils to enhance the home and the body. I also feel like I am doing my bit for the environment, as it is a natural product with no harsh chemicals, and most importantly to me, no animal testing.

Lemongrass oil should be avoided by pregnant women, children under 6, and those with sensitive skin unless properly diluted. People with eczema or chronic skin conditions may experience irritation.

Q. What bugs hate lemongrass essential oil?

Mosquitoes, flies, ants, fleas, and ticks strongly dislike the scent of Lemongrass Essential Oil.

Inhaling Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil can ease headaches, clear nasal congestion, and elevate mood.
