Satthwa: Lemon-Grass Essential Oil | Review + How to Use

Hi Guys,

How are you all doing? 😊

So recently, I received Satthwa’s Lemongrass Essential Oil and probably this is like the third addition to my essential oils collection. Now, essential oils can resolve a lot of our daily incurred concerns but the question remains how to use them. Basically essential oils are highly concentrated and they are not to be used directly. The ideal way to use them is by mixing it with either carrier oil or diluting with a face mask concoction. Lemongrass is widely used within Asian states for its tangy-citrusy flavour; added within various curries to enhance their flavour. But it also has medicinal properties which I will share with you all in today’s post. Before moving on with "How lemongrass essential oil can be beneficial in your DIY stuff", let me introduce you first to the brand itself -

Top Benefits of Lemongrass Essential Oil:
Lemongrass essential oil has many beneficial properties apart from the wonderful aroma which it infuses when used for aromatherapy. As the name implies, lemongrass smells just like lemons, but it is milder, sweeter and far less sour. Lemon-grass essential oil helps reduce muscle & Joint pain, relives anxiety & Insomnia, is antimicrobial & anti-fungal, is rich in Vitamin C and makes for an effective insect repellent as well.

How you can use Lemongrass Oil:

Works well for soothing out body pain – Lemongrass Essential oil is known to help in soothing any soreness within the muscles or body. For tired feet after a day in heels, you can add few drops of lemongrass oil into your bathing salt and warm water mixture. Another easy means to use this is by mixing few drops into your choice of oil and you can use it for massaging the desired stiffed body parts.

A great Antiseptic – Since lemongrass is endowed with antiseptic properties, you can incorporate it within your skincare; especially for people prone to acne. Lemongrass oil will make sure that the bacteria which causes acne is kept off guards. The simplest manner of using lemongrass essential oil for face is by mixing it in some plain/rose water. Preferably, use a spray nozzle bottle to ensure easy application. Make sure to shake each time before using this DIY lemongrass toner. If you are like me who can’t really go through much hassle, you can probably use few drops while creating a face mask concoction. In case you have oily skin, take out your favourite gel based moisturizer and pour two drops into it.

Aromatherapy with Diffuser – The easiest form of using lemongrass would be to add few drops within your diffuser for that amazing citrusy fragrance to your room. If you’re more into scented candles, then sprinkle the oil onto the candle surface before burning it. This helps in relaxing your senses and in calming those annoying worldly thoughts like “Why the f*** my boss didn’t approve my amazing plan idea?” 

Insect repellent – The natural means to keep mosquitoes and mosquito related health problems, then all you gotta do is add lemongrass essential oil to your favourite body lotion and slather it onto your skin. And B-A-M-N you’re good to explore the world without worry about mosquitoes! 

Reducing Pores of facial skin – Not only does lemongrass help in keeping insects away; it also keeps away the acne causing bacteria. And the best part is that it can help you in reducing your facial skin’s pores. Mix it with some water and add in few drops to that and spritz this onto your face. This can replace your toners and you’d definitely see your pores & acne being reduced. 

Reducing Dandruff – Lemongrass also helps in evading the dandruff issue. The best way to use it for treating dandruff is by mixing it to your weekly hair care routine. All you need to do is mix few drops of it into olive oil or coconut oil whichever you prefer. For most amazing results, try it with Satthwa’s Premium Hair Oil as it is an amalgamation of 9 beneficial oils which cater nutrition to your scalp and hair strand. 

Why to pick only Satthwa’s Essential Oils?

👉Because Satthwa’s Essential Oils are 100% Pure & Certified Organic.

Those essential oils which aren’t stated as “certified organic” are never completely pure. The reason being, the plants from which the essential oil is produced are sometime sprinkled with chemical fertilizers and pesticides which manage to protect the crop from getting eating by bugs. But these chemicals cannot be removed while making use of it for deriving essential oils. Thus, they aren’t 100% pure. The word “certified organic” is what you need to see for within the labels while purchasing essential oils. Comparatively, organic essential oils have much more potency and display quick results rather than the non-organic ones. Hope these little tips would help you next time when you think of adding to your cart some essential oils. Essential oils can be used in everyday routine of our lives but majority of us aren’t aware how each essential oil can be put to use. But of course, we have Google now to help us resolve every dilemma. 

(Disclaimer – Satthwa’s Lemongrass Essential Oil is 100% pure and thus highly concentrated. Do not use it directly upon your skin as it might give you an inflammation sensation. For that matter, DO NOT use any Essential oil directly!)
