doTERRA Yellow Mandarin Essential Oil

Description

The Mandarin tree is a small evergreen with a single trunk and many thin drooping branches. Often confused with Tangerine, the Mandarin orange is a variety in the same
Rutacae family.

The peel of the mandarin fruit is used to make three different Mandarin essential oils: Green Mandarin, Red Mandarin, and Yellow Mandarin. These varieties of essential oils depend upon the ripeness of the fruit at the time of distillation. In the middle of the ripening stage,

Yellow Mandarin essential oil is cold pressed from the semi-ripe fruit peel and is the most floral of all mandarin essential oils. The delicious, bright scent of Yellow Mandarin offers a positive aroma. With inherent cleansing properties and other valuable chemical constituents,

Yellow Mandarin is also excellent for cleansing surfaces and maintains a balanced moisture level in the skin. Limonene, a chemical component of Yellow Mandarin essential oil, provides an invigorating aroma that promotes vitality.
