sun after the rain

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · Resinous & sweet · code BL-1535


The rain has just stopped, and sunshine breaks out over the rooftops. Three drops of lime are tart and green like lime leaves wet with rain, one drop of geranium brings green rose, and one drop of vanilla is warm and sweet like the first ray of sun. This little blend suits the living room or bedroom on days of fickle rain and shine. For rooms of 15m² or more, double all three so the scent spreads enough.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Vanilla (creamy, sweet and cozy) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.


Method

Diffuser
Lime 3 · Geranium 1 · Vanilla 1 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.

Lime 3 · Geranium 1 · Vanilla 1 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.

Safety

Photosensitizing

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.


FAQ

How do I use sun after the rain in a diffuser?
Add Lime 3 · Geranium 1 · Vanilla 1 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 lime?
Swap lime for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use sun after the rain?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
