Palmarosa Essential Oil Uses: For Wholesale Purposes

Perfume

Of the many , perfume is likely the most prevalent. Though as you now know it doesn’t actually come from the Rose family, its Rose-like scent is still prized in the fragrance world. Palmarosa is a middle note—or heart note—in perfume terms, which means it makes up the main body of a scent. This is an important role, as the heart note will initially mask the base note of the fragrance blend until its power diminishes slightly and it becomes more appealing. 

Palmarosa is also common in the makeup of items such as Cosmetics (Lipsticks, Powders, etc), Deodorants, and other beauty products.

Insect Repellent

Studies indicate Palmarosa Oil may be effective at for up to twelve hours, which is even longer than other Essential Oils, including its cousin Lemongrass!

How to Use Palmarosa Essential Oil as a Repellent:

To use Palmarosa Oil for repelling mosquitoes start with a Carrier Oil, such as one of these. You may also use either Alcohol or Witch Hazel as a base, particularly if your preference is to use it as a spray. Using a 10-1 ratio, add Palmarosa (or even a blend of Palmarosa Oil, Citronella Oil, and Lemongrass Oil), and shake the bottle to mix. Then either mist or apply topically to help repel Mosquitoes and other Insects. 

Soap Making

Soap making is one of the most significant Palmarosa Essential Oil uses. The Oil is a top note and is great for soap making as it blends well with many other oils. When using Palmarosa Oil in soap, you will need approximately 3 teaspoons for every one pound batch, assuming you aren’t blending other oils in. 

What Blends Well with Palmarosa Essential Oil:

When coming up with custom soap creations, try combining Palmarosa Oil with Ylang Ylang, Geranium, Rose, Lavender, and Lime, for a fresh, floral scent.

Precautions 

Do not ever apply Palmarosa Oil directly onto the skin, and do not ingest it. If you are creating a repellent or wishing to add it to products it's important to properly dilute and to shake every time before use. This will ensure there is no separation. 

Keep Essential Oils away from children and pets, and ensure if you are mixing with Carrier Oils that you are using proper sun protection when outdoors.
