Geranium bourbon essential oil BIO (AB)

Distilled from the leaves and flowers, geranium bourbon essential oil comes from Madagascar. Ideal for the skin for its cosmetic virtues, it can also be used in diffusion, pure or in synergy.

Geranium bourbon essential oil is a panacea for skin care. Perfectly well tolerated, it can be used by all skin types: mature, combination to oily, acne-prone but also dry, dull and tired. It has properties and composition equivalent to that of Egyptian geranium essential oil; these two varieties coming from one and the same plant are simply cultivated in two different places on the globe.
