The Top 8 Skin Benefits of Geranium
Geranium is a genus of annual, biennial, and perennial flowering plants. They grow primarily in the Mediterranean region but can be found in temperate regions around the world as well as in the mountains of tropical regions. The name geranium comes from the Greek word for ‘crane,’ a reference to the shape of the fruit capsule in some species which looks like the head and bill of a crane.
Geranium essential oil is extracted through steam distillation of the leaves and stalks. It has an herbaceous green scent with rose undertones. This essential oil has a long history of use in traditional medicine and is now popular in cosmetics, perfumery, and aromatherapy.
Here are the top 8 benefits of geranium for skin:
- It contains linalool, an anti-inflammatory compound which may help with inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea and eczema.
- Geranium oil offers antimicrobial, antiseptic, and antibacterial benefits which may help protect against acne and skin infections.
- It helps eliminate dead skin cells to promote the regeneration of new skin cells.
- Geranium oil may help balance sebum production in the skin.
- It may help boost collagen production to improve the skin’s elasticity and smoothness.
- Geranium oil has cicatrizing properties which may help speed the healing or fading of cuts, scars, and blemishes.
- It may help even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
- Geranium oil contains citronellol, a compound which may help reduce allergic skin reactions.
In addition to these skin benefits, geranium essential oil may help reduce feelings of anxiety, fatigue, stress, and sadness. In aromatherapy applications, it may enhance concentration, improve cognitive function, and balance the emotions. When used medicinally, geranium offers anti-inflammatory and antiseptic benefits – it may also help enhance circulation and relieve pain.
