The lemon,Citrus limon, is a species of small evergreen tree in the flowering plant family Rutaceae, native to South Asia, primarily North eastern India. Its fruits are ellipsoidal in shape. Lemons contain numerous phytochemicals, including polyphenols, terpenes, and tannins.

Lemon essential oil is extracted from the peel of fresh lemons using a cold-pressing process that pricks and rotates the peel as oil is released. With its bright and joyful aroma, Lemon essential oil benefits skin and hair as much as its aroma enhances your environment. The essential oil can be diluted and applied topically to your skin, as well as diffused into the air and inhaled for further health benefits.
