Sweeter and softer than Camden's regular Lemon, this wild essential oil seems to be high therapeutic in its actions. It's never failed to bring a smile to my face after catching a whiff of it's bright sunny scent. Great in anti-aging blends for night use, will lighten age spots and even your skin tone out. I feel safer using this oil for topical uses because its wild, saving me from exposure to pesticides and herbicides used on conventional lemons.

This EO smells soooo good! I use lemon EO in my water when traveling to prevent motion sickness (1 drop to 24 oz) along with a hairband around my wrist in a specific place. I am excited to get this wildcrafted EO for this purpose!
