What Makes Lemon Essential Oil So Effective?

Lemon Essential Oil’s rejuvenating effect comes from its high limonene content, a monoterpene known for uplifting mood, enhancing focus, and purifying the air (Komiya et al., 2006). Its crisp, cleansing chemistry supports both mental clarity and physical well-being—making it one of aromatherapy’s most versatile oils.

Beyond emotional refreshment, Lemon acts as a natural antibacterial and astringent, ideal for supporting clear skin and maintaining a clean, fresh home environment.
