Essential Oil Spotlight: Tangerine
Tangerine essential oil is cold-pressed from the rind of the Citrus reticulata fruit. It has a fresh, sweet, citrusy aroma that is both calming and uplifting.
Tangerine oil has anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, laxative, and sedative properties. It has been used to treat a variety of ailments, including cellulite, constipation, dizziness, fear, parasites, intestinal issues, stress, liver problems, stretch marks, irritability, and water retention.
