Review: Sweet Orange Organic Essential Oil by Healing Solutions


I am new to the world of essential oils.  I never realized how a person can benefit by using them! You can breathe them in, put them on your skin, and others you can add to your water or food (don't do that, though, unless you know for sure they can be used internally).

There is something about the smell of oranges that I just LOVE.  This Healing Solutions Sweet Orange Essential Oil smells EXACTLY like a big, ripe orange that you eat on a hot summer's day. Just imagine the smell when you peel the skin off a Florida orange - THAT is the scent captured in this essential oil.  And why wouldn't it be the scent?  It is made of ALL NATURAL ingredients.  The distillation facility this is made is GMP, FDA, ISO 9001, and Kosher certified.  This comes in a cute little bottle with a European dropper cap.

I will say this - I did have to use a lot of drops of this oil in my diffuser to keep the orange smell going.  There was a lot of water in my diffuser, though, so that could have been the issue.  By itself this oil is strong and I feel like eating it.  I just put a drop on a piece of paper and I can still smell it.

Some benefits of orange oil:

  • Mild aphrodisiac
  • Anti-Inflammatory
  • Cholagogue (WTF is that?) - promotes gland excretions (menstruation, lactation, etc...)
  • Antiseptic
  • Antidepressant
  • Antispasmodic
  • Diuretic (get rid of that gas!)
  • Tonic
  • Sedative
  • Insecticide
  • May aid in improving cognitive function

Now that I gave you my opinion of this Sweet Orange Organic Essential Oil AND I gave you a quick list of benefits, check it out for yourself right here on Amazon!  The price is right!!
