Lemongrass Cut (Cymbopogon citratus)
At Holistic Emporium, Lemongrass is known for its refreshing antiseptic and deodorizing properties, making it an excellent addition to soaps, cosmetics, and natural skincare products. With its anti-bacterial and astringent qualities, it is ideal for formulations designed to cleanse and purify the skin, while also providing a fresh, uplifting scent.
Traditional Uses: Lemongrass has been traditionally incorporated into routines to support muscle relaxation, skin health, and to refresh the body. It has also been suggested in practices for managing stress and promoting a sense of calm. Its anti-microbial properties make it suitable for use in personal care products aimed at balancing the skin and providing a natural cleansing effect.
How to Use: For an infusion, steep 1 teaspoon of Lemongrass in 1 cup of boiling water for 10 to 15 minutes, then strain and enjoy up to three to four times daily.
Safety Precautions: Avoid use if pregnant or lactating. It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before using Lemongrass.
