Cypress Breakdown


Cypress
Cupressus Sempervirens

This midnote oil tends to balance and ground oil blends. One of the more widely appreciated blends for it's restorative effect on the nervous system, I love this oil in emotional and physical blends. When you are struggling with anything physically or emotionally in excess Cypress is your oil.

Description:
Derived from the branches of the tall evergreen tree, Cypress essential oil has a fresh, clean aroma that’s energizing and refreshing. Cypress is frequently used in spas and by massage therapists. Cypress can be diffused or inhaled directly, but should not be swallowed or taken internally. Cypress contains monoterpenes, making it beneficial for oily skin conditions.
