Research on lemon essential oil
May relieve symptoms of morning sickness
Nausea and vomiting are two of the most common symptoms that occur in early pregnancy. There is reason to believe that lemon essential oil may alleviate (or at least reduce) the severity of these symptoms.
In a 2014 study of 100 pregnant women, aromatherapy with lemon essential oil was found to significantly reduce the rate of nausea and vomiting.
Helps maintain alertness and concentration
Lemon essential oil will improve your mood, but it can also boost your brainpower. In a small study conducted in 2004 on fourth graders, students who attended language classes in a classroom where lemon oil was diffused performed much better on exams.
Another small study conducted in 2008 concluded that aromatherapy with essential oils such as lemon can improve cognitive function in people with Alzheimer's disease.
Lemon essential oil safety information
Cold-pressed lemon essential oil is phototoxic. Steam-distilled lemon oil is not phototoxic. Tisserand and Young recommend a maximum dermal dose of 2.0% for cold-pressed oil to avoid the risk of a phototoxic reaction. They caution against topical application of lemon oil, regardless of the method of distillation, if oxidation has occurred.
We recommend reading the full profile of Tisserand and Young. [Robert Tisserand and Rodney Young, Essential Oil Safety (Second Edition. United Kingdom: Churchill Livingstone Elsevier, 2014), 87, 330-331].

Odylique brand - the name derived from the meaning of "power of nature" - was born in 2003 and was originally called Essential Care. The whole story began in the 1980s, when the founder Margaret began to produce natural skin care products. Conventional products disagreed with her allergic and sensitive skin. She felt there had to be a healthier and more effective way to make skincare than using petroleum and artificial additives. So, armed with qualifications in herbal medicine and aromatherapy, and a passion for the genius of nature, she set about creating truly effective formulations, based only on organic herbs, plant oils and natural active ingredients that were compatible with the most sensitive skin. In the 1980s she was one of the few first ones, if not the first, pioneers of organic and natural skincare makers in the UK. In 2003, she officially founded the Essential Care company with her husband and daughter, which was later renamed Odylique. From the outset, its products have won awards in prestigious UK natural beauty competitions, and the product portfolio has grown to include decorative cosmetics for the most sensitive users.
Odylique wants all their ingredients to have therapeutic effect, while at the same time providing you with amazing skincare ritual you enjoy evey day.
Odylique is an expert on sensitive and allergic-prone skin and we are honoured to offer it to you as the products are the best certified organic quality at absolutely unbeatable prices to get. A nice bonus is that all of their plastic packaging is made from recycled plastic milk bottles - made in Britain, and 98% of the packaging material comes from Europe to minimize the carbon footprint. Almost half of the product containers and all boxes are manufactured in the UK.
