There is much more to Citronella Essential Oil than just being used for an outdoor insect repellant in the summer time.  It really is a most versatile essential oil.

While it is an excellent insect repellant with a delicate lemony scent, it can be used in many skin care products for oily skin as well as soaps and shower gels.

This is produced by steam distillation of the grass of Cymbopogon nardus.
