third shower of the day

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Herbal · Resinous & sweet · code BL-2972


Tea tree leads, clean and green, lemon and lemongrass brighten things up, geranium adds a rosy touch, and frankincense keeps a light warmth at the bottom. Overall, it feels exactly like stepping out of the shower with cool skin. Great for the bathroom, bedroom or closet. Mix a big bottle following this ratio and use about 5 drops each time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Tea tree (green, medicinal and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean); lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rise 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. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Lemon can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

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 third shower of the day in a diffuser?
Add Tea Tree 2 · Frankincense 2 · Geranium 2 · Lemon 2 · Lemongrass 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 tea tree?
Swap tea tree for rosemary or eucalyptus — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.
When is the best time to use third shower of the day?
Use it at midday, in hot rooms, or after coming in from outside; you can also mix a room spray for a quick cool-down.
