Pet Safety: Essential oils are generally safe to diffuse around adult cats and dogs intermittently. Ensure the room you’re diffusing in is well-ventilated and that your pet can leave if desired.

- Lime or Citrus aurantifolia contains high levels of limonene, making it an effective and natural surface cleanser. Diffusing Lime can deodorize and purify the air and surfaces and goes well in cleaning blends. Distilling Lime essential oil in the morning can also energize a room while relaxing the mind. It gives a mood boost to decrease melancholy and loan its cheerful aromatic that will turn the tide around by decreasing stress and emotional pressure. As a citrus oil, it can also act as an immune stimulant.
- Lime essential oil can be made by cold pressing or steam distilling the rinds/peel of the fruit. This particular version of Lime essential oil is cold pressed. Cold pressing mechanically separates the volatile oils in the peel and maintains the true nature of the essential oil and its properties. Cold pressed citrus oils are phototoxic and are not recommended for topical use over 1% in blends. Steam distilled Lime is better for topical blends as it is not phototoxic.
- If choosing to use Lime essential oil around your dog, it’s important to look out for warning signs such as behavioral differences, such as whining, scratching or acting loopy. Stop using essential oils around your dog if you notice these signs, and don’t use essential oils around small dogs, puppies and pregnant dogs. We don’t recommend applying essential oils to your pup or administering oils orally without consulting a holistic veterinarian. You may diffuse small amounts of oil around your dog, but be sure to do so in a well-ventilated room where your dog can leave if desired.
- It’s easier to understand how many limes it takes to make one bottle of essential oil rather than attempting to figure out how many drops of essential oil one Lime makes. In general, It would typically take about 30-40 limes to fill one 10 ml bottle of essential oil. In this respect you can understand how potent essential oils can be considering how much plant material it takes to make one small bottle. Typically in a 10 ml bottle you will have approximately 200 drops of essential oil.
- Essential oils are powerful, concentrated substances so a little goes a long way. Two of the most effective ways to use them is by way of inhalation and topical use. Drinking Lime essential oil is rarely necessary or recommended, no matter the brand. Essential oil ingestion can lead to adverse reactions such as medication contraindications, mucous membrane irritation, sensitization and nausea if done incorrectly. Therefore, if you wish to drink essential oils, we strongly recommend consulting with a knowledgeable professional with experience in internal use.

SUGAR SCRUB: To exfoliate the skin and smooth the appearance, mix together: 12 drops of Lime, 10 drops of Cypress, 12 drops of Tangerine and 14 drops of Grapefruit with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of Jojoba and 1/4 cup of Sesame oils. Stir to mix well. Best if used in the shower, on wet skin. Gently massage 1 tablespoon, or as much as needed, into problem areas. Rinsing away the sugar will leave the oils behind to work therapeutically, so you may want to use as a last step (using soap after will remove all traces of oil). Use a spoon to scoop out, and do not get product wet to prevent contamination.
