The citronella (lemongrass) essential oil from d'Natureza – Saboaria da Serra, Lda is a highly pure, natural distillate of fragrant lemongrass ( Cymbopogon winterianus ). It contains a powerful combination of natural ingredients such as citral, geraniol, limonene, myrcene, and citronellol – active ingredients known for their antibacterial , antiviral , mood-enhancing , refreshing , and insect-repellent properties.
This citronella oil has a cleansing, clarifying, and revitalizing effect. Its fresh, lemony scent supports concentration, lifts the spirits, and creates a clear, energized atmosphere. In aromatherapy, it is frequently used to reduce fatigue, revitalize the mind, and relieve emotional tension.
In skincare, it is particularly suitable for oily, blemished, or greasy skin , as citral and geraniol can regulate sebum production, refine pores, and have antiseptic effects. At the same time, it supports the natural connective tissue, firms the skin, and stimulates microcirculation.
Another advantage: Citronella oil is a natural, effective insect repellent – ideal in summer, for the terrace, in the bedroom or for outdoor activities.
