Pelargonium Graveolens (Geranium Bourbon) Leaf Oil

What is it? 

Geranium essential oil is derived by steam distillation of the leaves of Pelargonium graveolens, a plant species native to South Africa. According to folklore, it was used for a wide range of health conditions. 

Geranium oil is grown in many regions, including Europe and Asia. There are many varieties and strains of the pink flower with a fresh, floral fragrance. Each variety differs in scent, but is near-identical in terms of composition, benefits, and uses. 

Geranium oil is thought to have antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and astringent properties. For decades, Geranium Oil has also been used to promote hair growth by nourishing the scalp and balancing the production of sebum and natural oils.
