{"product_id":"eucalyptus-radiata-essential-oil","title":"Eucalyptus radiata Essential Oil","description":"Eucalyptus Essential Oil\nEucalyptus Radiata Essential Oil possesses a crisp, woody-like aroma, and delivers a wealth of benefits. The incredibly versatile Eucalyptus oil helps calm and center the mind; it can also repel insects, clean and deodorize the home, and help inspire deep breathing. These properties are just a few of the many reasons why we added Eucalyptus to our Wellness collection.\n\nSo, let’s take a journey through history to discover the oil’s origins, how it’s produced, and why it’s a must-have for any essential oil collection.\n\nWhere Does Eucalyptus Essential Oil Come From?\nAustralia is home to roughly 700 types of Eucalyptus, and researchers and botanists continue to discover and catalog unknown species. While Eucalyptus trees originated in Australia, they can now be found in other parts of the world, too. These “exotic” plants from Down Under made their way to Europe in the early 1800s and have subsequently spread to Africa, South America, India, and California.\n\nAs a member of the Myrtaceae family, the evergreen Eucalyptus Radiata tree can reach 97 feet in height. The glossy leaves taper off to sharp point and possess a full-bodied, aromatic fragrance. In fact, Eucalyptus Radiata is commonly known as the narrow-leaved peppermint tree, due to the fact that the Eucalyptus leaves closely resemble the narrow-leaved peppermint plant.\n\nWhat Are the Different Types of Eucalyptus Essential Oil?\nWhile radiata is the most versatile out of the Eucalyptus oils, here is a little more information about the most common types of Eucalyptus Essentials Oils:\n\n \n\nEucalyptus radiata: Commonly known as, narrow-leaved peppermint and Forth River peppermint, this type of Eucalyptus has a gentler aroma than the other types, making it ideal for those more who have a more sensitive sense of smell\nEucalyptus citriodora: This type of Eucalyptus is commonly known as lemon-scented gum and Corymbia Citriodora. A lemon, citronella-like fragrance mellows the oil’s camphor notes, making it an excellent choice for skin care purposes.\nHow To Distill Eucalyptus Essential Oil\nSteam distillation is the most common method to extract Eucalyptus oil from the plant. Steam distillation uses a carefully calibrated combination of soft pressure and heated steam on either fresh or partially dried leaves, and young twigs. Once the vapor cools, the water and oil separate, allowing the producer to bottle the essential oil.\n\n","brand":"Trinspaskin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44392139587806,"sku":"","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/5946\/7230\/files\/FullSizeRender_e217d80b-c743-41cd-bd4e-b1688ee9561c.jpg?v=1696796879","url":"https:\/\/trinspaskinandwellness.com\/products\/eucalyptus-radiata-essential-oil","provider":"Trin Spa Skin \u0026 Wellness","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
