YUZU IN SKIN CARE

Brightens skin: As an active skincare ingredient, Yuzu essential oil can naturally brighten, energize and tone the skin.

Rejuvenates ageing skin: Vitamin C initiates the production of Collagen. Collagen is responsible for firming the skin, making the skin wrinkle-free and in turn, revealing softer and more radiant skin.

  • How to use for face care
    Add one drop of essential oil to one dollop of your face cream or lotion and apply every two days. Do not be tempted to add more oil. Higher doses do not work better than regular applications.
  • How to use for body care
    Use no more than 4 to 5 drops for every 5ml of body lotion or carrier oil. Apply the mixture all over skin and pat dry or allow full absorption.
