Lemon Eucalyptus
This botanical cousin of common eucalyptus has a distinct lemony, grassy aroma that's very reminiscent of citronella. In fact, both oils share the same naturally occurring chemical constituent -- citronellol -- that insects such as mosquitoes find extremely off-putting. Lemon eucalyptus is distilled from the leaves and stems of the tropical tree of the same name. The aroma is a natural and effective addition to summertime sprays for camping, picnicking and evenings on the patio.

SUMMER COOLING
It's easy to overdo it with the heightened activity and higher temperatures of the summer months. Create time and space to enjoy the coolness and serenity of aromatherapy with essential oils.
For a cooling mist, add lavender essential oil , peppermint or grapefruit essential oil to a mister and store in the refrigerator. Shake and mist on exposed skin for instant refreshment!
