Lemon
Originally native to Asia, the lemon tree wasn’t common in Europe until the 16th century. It is part of the evergreen family and reaches a height of about 20 feet. Lemon Vitality essential oil has a fresh, citrusy flavor that can be used to enhance the flavor of food and beverages. In addition, it provides immune support and antioxidant properties when taken internally. Lemon and Lemon Vitality are the same essential oil.

I added a drop or two to hot water. It is very refreshing.
I combine a couple drops of lemon, peppermint, and eucalyptus with coconut oil and use it for insect repellant.
Lauren, that actually sounds like some good smelling repellant!
