Mandarin Essential Oil (Citrus reticulata)
2,99 € – 9,85 €
Our Mandarin Essential Oil is especially appreciated for its exceptional staying power in homemade soap recipes. Ideal for cold saponification, this oil retains its aromatic and therapeutic qualities, making it a preferred choice for quality-conscious artisans. Its sweet scent, particularly popular with children, gives long-lasting fragrance to soaps, ensuring a pleasant olfactory experience every time you use them.
Use in Cold Saponification:
I'm particularly fond of mandarin essential oil for soap-making, as it maintains its fragrance for a long time and doesn't precipitate the trace, facilitating the saponification process.
To vary olfactory pleasures, it combines perfectly with lavender for a soothing effect or with cedar EO for a woody touch.
- Soothing: Widely used for its calming effects on the nervous system, helping to reduce stress and anxiety.
- Purifying for the skin: It helps purify and tone the skin, being particularly beneficial for reducing signs of scarring, stretch marks and other skin imperfections thanks to its regenerative properties.
- Antiseptic: Mandarin oil has mild antiseptic properties that can help treat and prevent skin infections.
- Relaxing: Used in aromatherapy, it brings a feeling of well-being and relaxation, often used to improve mood and combat insomnia.
- Lymphatic stimulant: Supports the lymphatic system, helping to reduce water retention and promote circulation of body fluids.
Tips :
- At the end of the trace: add 3% of the essential oil to the total weight of your oils and butters for a long-lasting fragrance ( 9 grs = PTH 300 gr).
- To prolong the fragrance: add 5% white clay to the total weight of your oils. Mix the clay into the heated oils before adding the soda for even distribution and optimal trace management.
And in our homemade solid shampoo?
Mandarin essential oil is an excellent addition to a solid shampoo, offering several benefits for hair and scalp. Here are its main properties for hair:
Add 20 drops of HE Mandarin / 100g soap (total weight of solid shampoo).
- Conditioner : Helps revitalize hair, bringing shine and vigor. It is particularly beneficial for dull or tired hair.
- Purifying: Its cleansing properties help remove impurities and excess sebum from the scalp, leaving hair cleaner and fresher.
- Growth stimulant: By stimulating scalp circulation, mandarin oil can contribute to healthier, faster hair growth.
- Moisturizing: Although it helps control sebum production, it doesn't dry out the scalp, preserving hair's natural moisture.
- Soothing: It calms irritated scalps and can help reduce itching and inflammation thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.
