Blood Orange Essential Oil

Apart from being rich in vitamin C, blood oranges also offer unique health benefits associated with high levels of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are red flavonoid pigments that give the blood oranges their intense color and wondrous antioxidant properties.

Due to its antiseptic and antibacterial properties, blood orange essential oil can be used to prevent minor wounds or burns from becoming infected by harmful bacteria. Blood orange oil inhibits the growth of microbes and helps disinfect the affected area of the skin before the bacteria gets the chance to take a hold.
