Product description Oil Properties The oil is mostly colorless, but can have a slight light green color to it. It has a watery viscosity. Origin The plants originated from South Africa, as well as Reunion, Madagascar, Egypt and Morocco and were introduced to European countries such as Italy, Spain and France in the 17th century. There are about 700 different varieties of the plant, yet only 10 supply essential oil in viable quantities, as the normal garden geranium produce far too little oil for extraction. It is a hairy perennial shrub, often used in hedgerows, and stands up to about one meter high (3 feet) with pointed leaves, serrated at the edges and it has pinkish-white flowers. In early times geraniums were planted around the house to keep evil sprits at bay. Extraction The leaves and stalks are used for extraction, and the oil is obtained through steam distillation. Chemical Composition The essential oil is composed of various chemical constituents and includes a-pinene, myrcene, limonene, menthone, linalool, geranyl acetate, citronellol, geraniol and geranyl butyrate. Precautions Geranium oil does not cause any side effects, since it is non-toxic, non-irritant and generally non-sensitizing, yet can cause sensitivity in some people and due to the fact that it balances the hormonal system, it might not be a good idea to use it during pregnancy. Directions For aromatherapy, add a few drops to a diffuser. For topical use, dilute with a carrier oil (e.g., 1-2% essential oil to carrier oil). Avoid use during pregnancy and if sensitive to geranium oil. Do not ingest. Safety Warning Do not use if sensitive to geranium oil. Avoid use during pregnancy.
