DETAILS

Remedy's Nutrition® Key Lime essential oil is obtained from the peel of the Citrus × aurantiifolia fruit, native to Southeast Asia but naturalized in the Florida Keys. It is also known as West Indian lime, Bartender's Lime, Omani Lime, or Mexican Lime.


Key Lime is highly valued for its characteristic and unique flavor. The name comes from its association with our Florida Keys, where it's best known as the flavoring ingredient in the delicious Key Lime Pie. 


Remedy's Nutrition® Key Lime essential oil is extracted through a steam distillation process. It has a citrus, tart, zesty, and fresh aroma, characteristic of the fruit.

DOSAGE

Key Lime essential oil is concentrated and potent; a couple of drops are usually enough for topical use and aromatherapy. 

When using Key Lime oil on your skin, make sure to dilute it with a carrier oil, such as almond, coconut, or avocado oil. Always do a patch test. Remedy's Nutrition® Key Lime essential oil is in its pure and undiluted state. Start with small amounts: three drops in a teaspoon of carrier oil. If tolerated, you may increase the ratio until the desired effect is obtained. Avoid direct sunlight or UV rays for up to 12 hours after applying Key Lime oil topically.


  • For healthy-looking skin, blend Key Lime with a carrier oil, and apply it to the skin. 
  • For a cleansing massage, combine a few drops of Key Lime oil with a carrier oil and apply to the desired area. You can add a few drops of Key Lime oil to your body lotion, or massage oil.
  • To elevate mood, rub your hands with 1-2 drops of Key Lime essential oil, bring your hands over your nose and inhale.
  • For an uplifting environment, add Key Lime oil to your favorite diffuser.

Q&A

Essential Oils are scented oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots, and other plant parts. Historically, many different cultures have used these healing plant oils in medicine, cosmetics, perfumes, food, and aromatherapy.

Use extreme caution with companies that encourage you to ingest essential oils. Many companies erroneously promote the ingestion of essential oils, leading to severe kidney, liver, and heart issues. Some well-known companies have used this as a promotional tactic to increase income. But the reality is that essential oils generally are not developed for internal use, with few exceptions. See explanation of each oil for best use practices. Remedy's Nutrition Oils are evaluated by our Pharmacist, Registered Nurse, and Herbalist for quality and use.
Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils for healing purposes. Essential Oils may assist in the following applications: pain relief, mood enhancement, and increased cognitive function. Aromatherapy is a holistic treatment seeking to improve physical, mental, and emotional health. If you have a health concern, always seek medical attention and consult your health care practitioner regarding the use of any supplement or essential oil.
Yes, you can incorporate essential oils into your everyday life if you use them safely.
Because pure essential oils are concentrated and potent, usually, a couple of drops are enough for topical use and aromatherapy.
Store essential oils in a cool, dry, and dark place.
Remedy's recommends that, for initial topical use, all essential oils are diluted to avoid skin irritation, burns, blisters, and sensibility. For a healthy adult, dilute ½ tsp. of carrier oil, such as olive, coconut, avocado, or almond, for every 1 to 3 drops of essential oil, then apply to your skin!
Some essential oils can be toxic to children. Ensure you keep your essential oils out of reach of children and consult your physician before using essential oils on your kids.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it's better to consult your physician before using essential oils.
