tired, cleaning anyway

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-2373


Worn out but still pushing through the cleaning, you deserve a real compliment. Lavender and lemon split most of it, one soft floral that lightens your mood, one bright freshness that lifts your energy, while lemongrass blows in a green, cool note. Bedroom or living room, the method is the same: turn on the diffuser, clean one small corner at a time, and rest after each. Don't try to tackle the whole house at once.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) forms the body of the scent and stays 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

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 tired, cleaning anyway in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Lemon 3 · 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 lavender?
Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.
