Clementine Essential Oil

Charming Clementine Essential Oil is cold pressed from the bright orange peel of the cheery, juicy fruit that is a hybrid between the common sweet orange and the Mediterranean mandarin orange.
This hybrid was discovered by Brother Marie-Clément in 9th century Algeria.
The sweet essence is delightfully brimming with skin-faithful flavonoids, immune-loving limonene, and super-citrus antioxidants as well as mind-restoring linalool.
