Product description:
From the Bergamot tree native to Europe and South Asia, this essential oil is obtained by cold compression of the rind of this fruit which looks like a hybrid between a lemon and an orange.
Historically, Bergamot Essential Oil was majorly used in aromatherapy for its calming effects on the nervous system but has in recent years shown to be very beneficial in the areas of skin, hair care, and holistic healing.
Bergaptene Bergamot Essential Oil is suitable for both aromatherapy and for topical use in skin and hair care formulations and will not cause any phototoxic reactions upon exposing the skin to the sun.
Blends well with:
Essential Oils of Black Pepper, Clary Sage, Cypress, Jasmine, Mandarin, Nutmeg, Vetiver, Ylang Ylang Frankincense, Geranium, Sandalwood, Rosemary and other Citrus.
Note: Product colors and aroma profiles are intended to represent the typical and approximate color and scent of each oil. However, both can vary based on harvesting, distillation and other factors. These variations should not affect the efficacy of the product.
