<tc>Mandarin essential oil, Frantsila</tc>

Frantsila Mandarin (citrus reticulata) essential oil has a strong sweet, almost floral citrus fragrance. Mandarin oil is slightly milder than other citrus fragrances. Gentle mandarin essential oil balances oily skin and helps fight acne.

When mixed with body cream or massage oil, mandarin oil makes pregnant women feel better, treats pregnancy scars, helps reduce cellulite and firms the skin, for example after weight loss.

Mandarin oil is extracted by cold-pressing the outer skin of the fruit.

Mandarin was a traditional gift given to a Mandarin Chinese, and got its name accordingly. In traditional Chinese medicine, dried mandarin peels were used to regulate life energy and stomach well-being.

Mandarin oil is also used in Indian Ayurvedic medicine to treat, among other things, insomnia, stress and skin symptoms.
