Tangerine Essential Oil *Pro

Amber glass bottle with dropper containing 30 ml

Discover 100% pure tangerine essential oil, a natural treasure extracted by cold-pressing the peel of Citrus reticulata var. tangerina. With its yellow-orange hue and sweet, refined citrus fragrance—similar to mandarin but more sophisticated—this oil is a must-have in aromatherapy. Rich in limonene (65-85%), gamma-terpinene, and other monoterpenes, it offers unique properties that make it a valuable ally for daily well-being.

Flash Point

The flash point of tangerine essential oil is typically around 46°C (115°F), a relatively low temperature common for citrus oils due to their high concentration of volatile compounds like limonene. This requires careful handling and storage, away from heat and flames, in a tightly sealed bottle in a cool place.

History

The tangerine’s history traces back to Asia, particularly China and Japan, where this citrus was cultivated long before reaching Europe in the 19th century. Its name derives from the port city of Tangier in Morocco, from where it was exported to the West by Europeans and Americans, who adopted it as tangerine. Used in traditional Chinese medicine for its calming and digestive properties, it has evolved into a globally cherished essential oil.

Phototoxicity

Tangerine essential oil is phototoxic due to its furocoumarin content, which can cause skin reactions when exposed to sunlight or UV rays. After applying it to the skin, avoid sun exposure for at least 12 hours to prevent redness, burns, or pigmentation spots.

Precautions and Contraindications

For safe use, dilute tangerine essential oil to 5% in a carrier oil (such as jojoba or sweet almond oil) before applying to the skin, and perform a patch test on the inner elbow 48 hours prior. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. It is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, children under 7, or individuals with citrus allergies or a history of seizure disorders. Keep out of reach of children and store away from light and heat.

Benefits and Advantages

This oil is a powerful natural relaxant, ideal for reducing stress and anxiety and promoting restful sleep. Its antispasmodic properties relieve digestive discomfort, while its toning and purifying effects revitalize oily skin and hair. When diffused, it creates an invigorating and energizing atmosphere, perfect for home or office. Added to culinary recipes (cakes, smoothies, herbal teas), it brings a delightful fruity touch.
