Introduction / Brief description
Lime oil (INCI: Citrus Aurantifolia Oil ) is an essential oil with a tart, lemony, pleasantly fresh scent. It is extracted from the peel of the lime and is known for its invigorating, skin-tightening, and deodorizing properties. Lime oil is particularly suitable for oily and combination skin, and for invigorating aromatherapy.
Origin & Production
