Suggested Use:  This tangy scent is great in essential oil blends for an uplifting effect.  It can also help boost concentration.  Try blending it with rosemary and eucalyptus essential oils in a diffuser during the workday.

Topically, lime is a skin tonic and astringent, and a delight for the hair.  Try mixing 3 drops of lime oil with an ounce of jojoba oil and using as a hair conditioner.  Lime pressed oil can be phototoxic, so avoid use with sun exposure.  Dilute heavily with topical use.  It is recommended to dilute lime oil to 0.7%, which equals about 4 drops of lime per ounce of carrier oil.

History:  It is hard to differentiate the history of lemons from limes, as there are so many hybrids among the two.  Both lemons and limes were popular among sailors from the 1500s thru the early 1900s for their high vitamin C content, to help avoid getting scurvy.
