gentle glow-up

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-1388


Six drops of geranium lead with a fresh, green rose scent, two drops of rose add silky petals, and two drops of lemongrass keep the whole thing light and clear. This floral blend suits self-care days: face masks, painting your nails, picking outfits. In a small room, cut the geranium to 4 drops; if you want it sweeter, add 1 drop of rose.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced); rose (deep, silky and luxurious) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.

Safety

Skin irritant

Lemongrass can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use gentle glow-up in a diffuser?
Add Geranium 6 · Rose 2 · Lemongrass 2 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.
What can I use instead of geranium?
Swap geranium for lavender or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.
When is the best time to use gentle glow-up?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
