The Latin name is \u003cem\u003eCitrus Junos\u003c\/em\u003e, and the oil is extracted from the skin of the yuzu fruit. The color is light yellow and the scent is intense, fresh, complex and distinctly citrus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYuzu is prized in the Japanese wellness tradition, where the fruit has been used for centuries in baths during winter (yuzuyu) to warm the body and refresh the mind. The oil brings a piece of Japanese wellness into your daily routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYuzu blends beautifully with other citrus oils such as bergamot and mandarin, with woody oils such as hinoki, sandalwood and cedarwood, and with floral oils such as neroli and ylang ylang. It is a popular ingredient in luxury perfumery and in uplifting blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is Yuzu Essential Oil made?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Yuzu Essential Oil is extracted by steam distillation of the skin of the yuzu fruit. In steam distillation, the shells are exposed to steam, which releases the volatile aromatic components. This steam is then condensed, and the essential oil separates from the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn important advantage of steam distillation over cold pressing is that the heavier furocoumarins remain in the distillation residue. As a result, distilled yuzu is naturally non-phototoxic, unlike many other cold-pressed citrus oils such as bergamot or lemon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenefits of Yuzu Essential Oil\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNon-phototoxic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur distilled yuzu is safe for day care.

Traditionally, Yuzu is used in baths to warm the body and refresh the mind during the winter months. The fruit is relatively rare in Western markets, which makes Yuzu oil a precious and special choice for those who love unique citrus scents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTips for using Yuzu Essential Oil\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore the oil in a cool, dark place. Citrus oils are more susceptible to oxidation than other essential oils, and proper storage significantly extends their shelf life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways close the bottle tightly after use. Contact with air can cause the oil to lose its fragrance and effect more quickly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest on a small area of skin before using the oil for the first time, especially if you have sensitive skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways work with grams and percentages, not drops. Droplets vary in size and make it difficult to stay within safe limits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePoints of attention and side effects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Yuzu Essential Oil is extracted via steam distillation and is therefore not phototoxic. It can therefore be used for sunlight without restriction. However, it remains important to always use the oil diluted, never pure on the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur practical working dose: 1 percent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor homemade care, we recommend a dosage of 1 percent (1 gram per 100 grams of product). Citrus oils naturally contain allergens such as limonene and linalool. When you combine multiple essential oils in one recipe, these allergens accumulate and you can quickly exceed the legal allergen limits. A working dose of 1 percent gives you the space to use multiple oils in one recipe without going over those limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor products that you rinse off, such as soap, shower gel or shampoo, longer maximums apply because the oil does not remain on the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot recommended for use during pregnancy without consultation with an expert. Keep out of reach of children. When in doubt or with sensitive skin, always test on a small area first and wait 24 hours before using it on larger areas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Natural Heroes","offers":[{"title":"5 ML","offer_id":53165521731927,"sku":"YUZU-NH-1","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 ML","offer_id":53165521764695,"sku":"YUZU-NH-2","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/5214\/4215\/files\/NHS-290-5g-bottlePC-2K.png?v=1774934758","url":"https:\/\/alhalalcosmetics.nl\/en-us\/products\/yuzu-ethereal-olie-1","provider":"Halal Cosmetics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
