Unilateral Plant Essential Oil Fragrance Neutral Packaging Aromatherapy Diffuser Massage Sweet Orange 10ml

Sweet Orange Essential Oil is extracted from the peel of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) through cold pressing. It has a refreshing citrus aroma and various potential therapeutic benefits, widely used in aromatherapy and natural remedies. Below are its main effects and usage precautions:

1. Main Benefits

1. Mood Regulation & Stress Relief Anti-anxiety and mood enhancement: Rich in limonene, sweet orange oil stimulates serotonin release in the brain, alleviating stress, anxiety, and depression, and promoting a sense of well-being. Sleep improvement: When blended with lavender oil, it can soothe nerves and aid sleep (low dosage required).
2. Digestive Support Relieves indigestion: Diluted and massaged onto the abdomen (with a carrier oil), it promotes gastrointestinal motility, easing bloating and constipation. Appetite stimulation: Inhalation can stimulate appetite, suitable for those with poor appetite.
3. Immune & Antibacterial Properties Antibacterial effects: Inhibits certain bacteria (e.g., E. coli) and can assist in environmental cleaning (enhanced when combined with other antibacterial oils). Immune support: Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, it may indirectly boost immunity (better supplemented through diet).
4. Skincare Oil control and brightening: Diluted (1-2% concentration), it regulates oily skin and improves dullness (patch test required for sensitive skin). Wound healing: Mild antibacterial properties may aid minor wound recovery (use with caution).
5. Antioxidant & Anti-inflammatory Limonene has antioxidant properties, potentially helping combat free radicals and reduce chronic inflammation.
6. Household & Insect Repellent Mixed with vinegar or water, it serves as a natural cleaner and air freshener; repels certain insects (e.g., fruit flies).
   

2. Usage Precautions

1. Photosensitivity: Cold-pressed sweet orange oil contains furocoumarins—avoid direct sunlight for 12 hours after application to prevent skin pigmentation or burns.
2. Dilution: Always dilute with a carrier oil (e.g., jojoba, coconut oil) before topical use (recommended concentration: 1-3%).
3. Patch test: Perform an allergy test on the inner wrist before first use.
4. Pregnancy & Children: Consult a doctor before use by pregnant/nursing women or infants; further dilute for children (0.5-1%).
5. Storage: Keep in a dark, sealed container refrigerated; use within 6-12 months after opening (citrus oils oxidize easily).

3. Common Applications

• Aromatherapy diffusion: 3-5 drops in a diffuser to uplift mood.
• Massage oil: 10ml carrier oil + 2-3 drops sweet orange oil for abdominal or neck/shoulder massage.
• Spray: Mix with water + alcohol to create a refreshing spray.
