Essential oil – Mandarin
Citrus nobilis
Mandarin is still popular oil in the treatment of digestive weaknesses and liver disturbances and is especially preferred for children and the elderly because of its gentle nature. For stress, anxiety, insomnia and nervousness, its use is recommended in conjunction with other citrus oils. Like neroli, it is also a wonderful skin tonic, particularly for acne and oily skins. It is also indicated in the treatment of fluid retention.
Caution: Generally very safe, although its use on the skin is not recommended prior to exposure to sunlight.
