How to Use Lemongrass essential oil

• Enhance that relaxing aroma by adding Lemongrass oil to your cleaning products, dishes, and laundry. Add a few drops to your favourite cleaning formulas.

• Add 3–4 drops in a sink full of dishes, a load of laundry, or your all-purpose cleaner formula for an exotic, clean-smelling boost.
   

• Its relaxing aroma also makes it a great complement to post-workout massage.
   

• Dilute Lemongrass with V-6™ Vegetable Oil Complex for massage after workouts, sports, or just a long and busy day.
   

• Make your own substitute for chemical-based air fresheners. Add up to 10 drops to a small spray bottle filled with distilled water and spritz over carpets, furniture, and linens to help eliminate stale odours.
   

• Add Lemongrass to your nightly face regimen for its skin-cleansing benefits.
   

• Put 3-5 drops on a cotton ball and place it in your linen cupboard. Your linens will absorb the scent, and keep them smelling fresh.
   

• Add 2–3 drops to water or hot tea for a light, interesting flavour.
   

• Deodorise your fridge: half-fill a small container with baking soda and 5-10 drops of Lemongrass essential oil, and leave it in the fridge with the lid off.
   

• DIY air freshener: put 3-5 drops of essential oil onto 3-4 cotton balls and place them in a tiny bowl. You can place the bowls all around the house (perhaps behind the toilet or on the window sills) for a fresh-smelling home.
   

• DIY car freshener: select what shape you’d like, and cut out two pieces of felt and one piece of cardboard, and glue the felt to both sides of the cardboard. Put 3-6 drops of essential oil on each side, and refresh when needed.​
