Ever wonder why Lemongrass Essential Oil is a great additive in personal care products? . Lemongrass is an herb native to India and Sri Lanka. It is characterized by tall striped leaves, jagged edges and a sharp, lemony scent. This herb acts as a mosquito repellent. In addition, the application or ingestion of lemongrass can help alleviate various skin issues, from large pores to fungal infections. Lemongrass is an anti-microbial and anti-bacterial herb. This means it will help limit bacterial or microbial growth on the skin. It can help ward off skin infections as well as lessen skin issues caused by bacterial infections, such as folliculitis and cellulitis. Lemongrass is also fungicidal, which means it helps cure fungus infections on the skin. The herb also acts as an astringent, which constricts the skin. This helps to minimize pores, limit the secretions of oil and provide a temporary skin-firming treatment. Lemongrass is also far better than many of the synthetic deodorants that are a big expense, a heavy impact on the environment, and have limited lasting power. Synthetic deodorants can sometimes produce irritation on the skin and can exacerbate certain allergies. Lemongrass can be a much better choice as a deodorant. In a diluted form, it serves as an efficient deodorant without any side effects and the best thing about this is that it is herbal, so there is no damage to your body or the environment.
