Exploring ways to use Tangerine oil. I love the citrus oils they are uplifting oils and I love adding them to water. This week I focused on trying new ways to use Tangerine oil.

My Oil of the week project – This year I’m choosing an oil a week to focus on, trying different ways of using it. I’m choosing oils which I haven’t used a lot. It works well with my Intentional living – using what I have, getting more value from what I have & going deeper with things.

What does Doterra say about Tangerine?

🍊 Tangerine has a long history of use in Chinese culture and herbal health practices. It supports healthy digestion and metabolism.*

🍊Has a sweet, tangy aroma, similar to other citrus oils, that is uplifting.

🍊Tangerine is known for its cleansing properties, and for supporting a healthy immune and respiratory system.*

🍊Tangerine essential oil can be used to help soothe anxious feelings and manage stress.

🍊Cleansing and purifying

🍊Aroma uplifts mood

Ways I’ve used Tangerine this week

🌿 A diffuser blend that I ended up trying during my last ‘oil of the week’ stint which was Marjoram.

2 drops Marjoram

2 drops Eucalyptus

1 drop Tangerine

Like I said an unexpected combo but I liked it.

🌿 One of the easiest ways to use the oils aromatically.

A drop of a tangerine oil in the palm of my hand, rub together and then cup hands over nose and take a few breaths. To get the energising and uplifting benefits of Tangerine.

🌿 Add a drop to my water for flavouring and getting the benefits of the oil internally. Which I’m comfortable with. I love the citrus oils in water Lime is my favourite.

🌿 More Diffuser blends I tried

1 drop of Tangerine

1 drop Green Mandarin

Very summery and the green mandarin is a different type of citrus scent as it is from the unripened mandarin.

Fruit punch

1 drop Grapefruit

1 drop Lemon

1 drop Lime

1 drop Tangerine ( which I haven’t got a sticker for yet )

Calm & Happy diffuser blend

I did

2 drops Tangerine

2 drops Balance

1 drop elevation

Some other uses

🍊Add 2–3 drops as a flavoring in cake and cookie recipes

🍊Add 1–2 drops in water, smoothies, teas, or lemonade for flavoring

🍊Apply to flex points or abdomen to promote feelings of happiness. Dilute with a carrier oil to minimize sensitivity if needed

I loved focusing on an oil like this & ‘getting to know’ the oil better.
