Geranium (Egyptian) oil is well known for its skincare properties. It can be used to even out oily or combination skin complexions and is said to nourish and re-hydrate dry and mature skin.

Geranium (Egyptian) can also be used to calm irritability, relax the mind, and ease cases of insomnia. It is also often used to help drain lymphatic fluid, making it a good addition to massage oil to help ease lymphoedema.

The strong smell of this oil is particularly good to ward off mosquitoes and head lice. It is mostly colourless, but can have a slight light green colour to it. It has a watery viscosity.
