Geranium essential oil (Pelargonium graveolens oil) is one of our favorites, due to its tightening, toning, and firming effect on the tissue, in addition to its antioxidant power, which prevents the appearance of wrinkles. All these properties, and many more, have made it one of the ingredients we have used in the formulation of our anti-aging line.

Below you can see some of the products in which we have used geranium essential oil, and then we will tell you how it is obtained and what its main benefits for the skin are.

Obtaining Geranium Essential Oil

Geranium essential oil is obtained through the steam distillation process of the plant's leaves and stems. The resulting essential oil is pale yellowish-green in color and has a floral, sweet aroma with a hint of green and herbaceous notes.

Geranium essential oil is a versatile ingredient that can be used in various natural cosmetic products due to its regenerative and healing properties. It contains compounds that stimulate collagen production, helping to improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Its balancing and anti-inflammatory properties make it especially useful for the care of acne-prone skin, while its ability to improve blood circulation can help improve the appearance of skin and hair.

Benefits of Geranium Essential Oil for the Skin

It has many properties for the skin, among the most notable are:

Astringent: helps to tighten and tone the skin, which can be beneficial for reducing the appearance of enlarged pores and preventing excessive sebum production.

Cell regenerator: It has regenerative properties that can help repair and rejuvenate damaged skin, stimulating the production of new cells.

Anti-inflammatory: helps reduce inflammation and skin irritation, which can be beneficial for treating conditions such as acne and rosacea.

In short, it is another essential oil with many properties, which is why we use it extensively in our natural and organic cosmetics.
