This is such a wonderful oil. Its vibrant orange colour, tangy flavour, and bright scent brings to mind joy, sunlight, and sweetness. Its fragrance, uplifts and yet calms. This makes it a popular choice to diffuse at home when young children are at play as it helps to dispel tantrums and frustration etc.
We feature this oil in our detox and cellulite products for its ability to stimulate the lymphatic system and treat oedema, cellulite as part of a general detoxification program.
