Geranium is a familiar perennial shrub that is often planted around the home for protection, beauty and aroma or in herb gardens. It grows in stands about 3-4 feet high, has pointed leaves that are serrated at the edges and hosts pinkish-white flowers.
Geranium plants originated from South Africa, Madagascar, Egypt and Morocco and were introduced to European countries such as Italy, Spain and France in the 17th century.
Geranium essential oil was first used in the French perfume industry. The oil is extracted by steam distillation from the leaves, stems and flowers of the shrub. Today it is cultivated in Europe, Russia, Egypt, Central America, China and Japan.
Geranium essential oil is a great balancer. It is clear to light green in color and has a light fresh scent that blends well with many other essential oils. Known as the ‘flower of constancy’, Geranium helps to lift one’s spirits by easing tension and stress and promoting a sense of peace and well-being.
As well as having a balancing effect on the mind, this uplifting essential oil has a great all-over balancing property that also extends to the skin. Geranium brings a radiant glow when used in natural skin care.
Geranium helps cleanse the skin as well as restore balance, tone, and suppleness. It has astringent qualities but is not drying so it is equally good for both oily and dry skin. It is believed to balance sebum making it the oil of choice for combination skin.
Geranium can be helpful for acne, bruises, cuts, varicose veins, broken capillaries, eczema and dermatitis. It is anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic and works well as a deodorant and tonic.
Note: as with any essential oil, always test a small amount first for sensitivity or allergic reaction.
