Orange Essential Oil 10 ml
Orange Essential Oil, or Citrus aurantium dulcis peel oil, extracted by expressing the fruits rind, has excellent cosmetic qualities. Most people like this essential oil, given that it creates an atmosphere of harmony and well-being.
The orange tree comes from the warmer regions of China. However it was the Arabs who first brought oranges to the Mediterranean. The Arabs secured territory throughout Spain in the 7th century and expanded their agriculture throughout the large areas of land in the Southern part of the country, including Valencia, Murcia and Seville. They also brought their crops to Sicily. Christopher Columbus then brought it to America, where orange groves were established in Florida and California. Orange sales became more common and widespread starting in the 18th century, as up till then it had been considered a very expensive fruit.
Cosmetically, Orange Essential Oil is invigorating, purifying, whitening, illuminating, moisturising and an excellent fragrance source.
