Pranarôm Organic Litsea Essential Oil is a pure essential oil distilled from the small fruits of Litsea citrata, also known as May Chang. Its bright, lemony scent comes from neral and geranial, and Pranarôm suggests it for skin care massage blends and for relaxing moments at the end of a busy day. It comes in a 10ml amber glass bottle, always to be diluted before use on the skin.

Key Benefits

  • Lemony freshness: a crisp, citrus-like aroma that lightens the mood of a room.
  • Relaxing ritual: a few drops in a diluted massage blend to unwind after a long day.
  • Oily skin routine: Pranarôm suggests it, diluted, in the care of very oily skin.
  • Pure and complete: 100% pure and natural, with nothing added or removed.
  • Chemotyped quality: HECT label, from botanically certified plants, according to Pranarôm.
  • Organic: from organic farming, with the organic label on the box.

Key Ingredients

Litsea essential oil, Litsea citrata, obtained from the fruit. It naturally contains neral, geranial and limonene, the molecules Pranarôm lists for this oil.

If it comes into contact with the skin undiluted, wash with plenty of soap and water. It may cause a skin allergy. Keep out of the reach of children and store away from heat and light.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use Pranarôm Organic Litsea Essential Oil?

Dilute a few drops in a vegetable oil, then massage the blend locally onto the skin. Pranarôm advises never to apply it pure and never to swallow it. Keep the bottle closed and away from heat and light.

What does Pranarôm Organic Litsea Essential Oil smell like?

It smells fresh, sweet and lemony, close to lemongrass but softer. This scent comes from neral and geranial, two natural molecules found in the small peppery fruits of the May Chang tree.

Can I use Pranarôm Organic Litsea Essential Oil in a diffuser?

Yes. Pranarôm shares a closet recipe that mixes 6ml of litsea with 2ml of Atlas cedar and 2ml of Scots pine, used in a diffuser or as 4 drops of the blend on a small wooden block.

What does the HECT label mean for Pranarôm Organic Litsea Essential Oil?

HECT stands for chemotyped essential oils, a quality label used by Pranarôm. It means the oil comes from botanically certified plants and is pure, natural and complete, with nothing added or removed. This oil is also certified organic.
