aromáma Sweet Orange 100% pure essential oil 5ml
Warm and cheerful orange essential oil – a key to uplifting your mood. Aromatherapists usually refer orange essential oil as liquefied sunlight. Wonder why? When ripening, citrus fruits absorb a ton of sunlight and its energy, so it is not surprise that essential oils extracted from the peel are full of this energy, which fills households with extreme cosiness and happiness. It is highly recommended to use it during cold season, since we all lack the warmth of sunlight. As well as other kinds of citrus essential oils, orange oil is recommended as a natural antidepressant, especially effective in balancing seasonal mood swings. Orange fruits have been used for production of juice and marmalade for a long time, while the peel is used for making liqueur, and pressing essential oil, which is widely used in cosmetics and perfumery. In literature it is mentioned that orange oil improves blood circulation, metabolism and especially suitable for slimming.
Orange essential oil blends perfectly with lemon, grapefruit, neroli, peppermint, bergamot and ylang ylang (cananga) essential oils.
Orange essential oil can be safely used around babies from 6 months old (with an essential oil diffuser and home cleaning). It is suitable for the whole family. It is safe to use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
Attention! Orange essential oil can increase skin sensitivity to UV radiation. It is not recommended to be in the sun for at least 12 hours after any skin treatment with orange essential oil (unless skin areas are covered).

How to use:
- Diffuse orange essential oil in a diffuser. Add 6 to 8 drops of essential oil to the diffuser during the day. In the evening, 3 to 4 drops are enough and make sure to use it together with lavender, bergamot or mandarin essential oils, which are non-energizing and calmer. We do not recommend using orange oil at night, as it actively stimulates the nervous system and will disturb the sleep.
- During pregnancy, orange essential oil can come in to help with morning sickness. It also helps for those who have a difficulty waking up.

Add a drop of essential oil to your palm alongside with your chosen cosmetics at the time of use.
