Blend recipes · Energy & alertness
Barely opened the laptop and already yawning? Two drops of lime and two drops of peppermint are all it takes to fight back. Lime hits first, tangy and fragrant like freshly squeezed peel, then peppermint spreads a chill that lingers for quite a while. This minimalist blend suits a home desk, especially early in the afternoon. Place the diffuser about an arm's length from your face so it wakes you up without stinging your eyes.

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
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.
Lime can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.
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.
