Using Lemon Essential Oils to Brighten Up the House

Today I will be taking a look at Lalune Naturals Lemon Essential Oil and discussing how I tested it, what worked best and what did not work at all....

Lemon essential oil has a few great uses that I found really beneficial and Lalune's oil is highly concentrated and made of strong stuff... 
Here are my thoughts...

1. as a cleaner:
    I am a clean freak and I want my house smelling good and without dirt and dust... I am constantly cleaning my kitchen and although I am fond of bleach, my husband is not... so I look for other pleasing smell opportunities and this oil REALLY does boost home made cleaning solutions. Mixing a dropper full of this with a vinegar and water base cleans surfaces and freshens a room.  

2. As a room freshener:
     This is my favorite use for the oil. I have a few oil infusers throughout the house and adding this to my burner just brightened the entire house with only a few drops...the greatest part, is the fragrance is in no way overpowering. You can smell the lemon and freshness in the air, but it is not a wave of scent. Thus, your home just smells bright and clean.

3. exfoliate:
     If you are going to use this on your skin DILUTE DILUTE DILUTE... a tiny amount goes a long way. to use it on your skin I would mix it with another neutral oil base or water.  If you want to use it as a fragrance or hair astringent, these also would work well...but again, dilute this heavily, because it is strong and can really agitate sensitive skin.  I thought I would try three drops in a bath, and it burnt my skin... lesson learned. I did though dilute it with water and use it as a body freshener spray, and found that to be lovely and again... fresh and clean.  

Overall... I think the oil is strong, of high quality, and great for household cleaners and to freshen up a room.
