Petitgrain oil – properties

It has a rich chemical composition – the main components are linalyl acetate (up to 65%) and linalool (approx. 20%). The extract has strong antiseptic properties, and can be used on minor wounds and cuts. It also affects the central nervous system, relaxes, and reduces stress-induced somatic symptoms (such as palpitations or trembling hands).

The oil regulates sebum secretion (without drying out the skin) and perfectly tones, making it ideal for the demanding care of combination and oily skin. It will nourish, regenerate and brighten a dull, tired complexion – simply add a few drops of the product to your favourite cosmetics. It can also be used as a hair rinse (, particularly for hair, that tends to be greasy) – it deodorises and refreshes perfectly.

Used in aromatherapy, it improves mood, boosts energy and invigorates. During a bath or massage, it relieves nervous tension and calms, whilst also regenerating the skin. Regular aromatherapy can help alleviate depression, anxiety or insomnia – petitgrain oil perfectly cleanses the atmosphere – both literally and figuratively.
