Bergamot essential oil is an overwhelming favorite oil with its fresh and bright aroma. The scent of Bergamot is citrusy and fruity with a warm, spicy, floral quality. This oil calms the mind and lifts the spirit, making it excellent for soothing nervous tension. Bergamot is one of the best oils to diffuse to help promote an uplifting, clean and soothing atmosphere. We recommend combining equal parts of Bergamot, Patchouli and Grapefruit in a diffuser for a heavenly, relaxing aroma. Bergamot can also help relieve irritated skin and teenage blemishes. For use on skin issues, add a few drops of Bergamot essential oil to a carrier oil such as Grapeseed or Hazelnut and apply to the affected area. Bergamot essential oil is cold-pressed from the rind of the bergamot orange fruit, which is native to Italy. This oil is Bergapten-free Bergamot and is not phototoxic, which means it is safe for use in the sun.
