Lemon Grass Carrier Oil

LEMONGRASS CARRIER OIL
INCI Name: Cymbopogon Citratus Leaf Oil CAS Number: 89998-14-1

Product Description
Lemongrass Carrier Oil is a lightly aromatic oil extracted from the leaves of Cymbopogon citratus, known for its refreshing citrus scent and purifying properties. Unlike the concentrated essential oil, this carrier-grade version is gentler on the skin, making it suitable for daily use in massage blends, skincare, and haircare formulations.

Rich in citral, limonene, and geraniol, it offers mild antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and toning benefits. Lemongrass oil is especially popular in acne-prone, oily, or dull skin routines, and it adds a clean, energizing aroma to any product.
