Why Sweet Orange Essential Oil?
Sweet Orange Essential Oil is extracted from the rind of the orange fruit. It is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C which support skin regeneration and help fight signs of aging. The oil also has antibacterial properties that make it great for managing acne and reducing blemishes.
Here are some skin benefits of Sweet Orange Essential Oil:
- Brightens dull skin
- Reduces dark spots and scars
- Fights acne-causing bacteria
- Supports collagen production
- Soothes inflammation
Adding this oil to your skincare routine can bring a radiant and even complexion with regular use.
Ingredients for Your DIY Serum
To prepare your serum, you will need the following:
- 2 tablespoons of carrier oil (camelia seed oil, sweet almond oil or argan oil work best)
- 6 drops of Sweet Orange Essential Oil
- A small dark glass bottle with a dropper
- A small funnel or pipette for easy transfer
All ingredients are available at local health shops or online. Make sure to choose high-quality, pure essential oils like the ones we offer at aromabox.co.ke. You can also call us at 0705493889 for assistance with your order.
Step-by-Step Preparation Guide
Follow these steps to create your DIY Sweet Orange Essential Oil Serum:
- Clean and sterilize your glass dropper bottle with warm water and soap. Let it dry completely.
- Using a funnel or pipette, pour your chosen carrier oil into the bottle.
- Add 6 drops of Sweet Orange Essential Oil into the bottle.
- Close the bottle tightly and shake it gently to mix the oils together.
- Label your serum and store it in a cool, dark place.
Your serum is now ready to use.
How to Use the Serum
Use the serum once a day, preferably at night. Start with a clean face. Apply 2 to 3 drops to your fingertips and massage gently into your skin using upward strokes. Avoid the eye area. Allow the serum to absorb fully before applying any other products.
Remember to do a patch test before using the serum on your face. Apply a small amount on your inner wrist and wait 24 hours. If there is no irritation, it is safe to use.
Tips for Best Results
To get the most out of your DIY Sweet Orange Essential Oil Serum, follow these simple tips:
- Be consistent. Use it every evening for better results.
- Always apply to clean, dry skin.
- Store the serum in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
- Shake the bottle before each use to ensure even distribution of the oil.
- Avoid using it during the day if you are going into the sun, as citrus oils can increase sun sensitivity.
Who Can Use It?
This serum is suitable for most skin types. However, people with very sensitive skin should start with fewer drops of Sweet Orange Essential Oil. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use.
If you are dealing with serious skin issues like eczema or rosacea, it is best to speak to a skincare expert before trying any new products.

- You control what goes into your product
- No harsh chemicals or preservatives
- It is cost-effective in the long run
