It shows a broad variety of application possibilities.

Uses

geranium oil (Pelargonium sp.) is refreshing, anti-irritant, mildly G tonic, and astringent. Although good for all skin types, it is particularly beneficial for oily and acne skins, and to those with inflammatory tendencies. The cell-regenerating activities claimed for geranium would also make it useful for aged skin. Although the many varieties of geranium-including wild geranium and english geranium-all belong to the same botanical family, their uses may differ. geranium oil is obtained by steam distillation from the entire plant, and is widely used in perfumery and cosmetics.

Safety Profile

A skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
