Guide to the Benefits of Essential Oils 

Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts, often used in aromatherapy and skincare. They add natural scent to our products, and we think they just smell amazing. 

We use tons of different essential oils in our products here at Farmer’s Body. Here's your guide to a few of the essential oils we use and why we love them. 

  • Litsea essential oil is derived from a tree or shrub that’s native to Southeast Asia (Blissoma). The oil has a lemon-like aroma, and it’s widely used in the cosmetic and skincare industries because it’s so refreshing and energy-boosting. We use Litsea oil in products like our Gentle Citrus Bar Soap. If you’re looking for a little pick-me-up, we highly suggest introducing Litsea oil to your daily routine. 
  • Rosemary essential oil is one of the most popular essential oils out there, and it’s for a good reason. Rosemary oil has a fresh, herbal scent that many people find invigorating. Basically, it’s an oil that can benefit almost anyone. We use rosemary essential oil in a ton of our products, including our Rosemary Mint Bar Soap and our Rosemary Mint Hand and Body Lotion. 
  • Eucalyptus essential oil is similar to rosemary oil in that it can benefit pretty much everyone who uses it. This oil is made by crushing eucalyptus tree leaves, and it's loved for its fresh, clean scent. We use eucalyptus oil in a few products like our Mint Eucalyptus Bar Soap. 
  • Lavender oil is another extremely popular option when it comes to essential oils. It smells amazing, and it's a wonderfully relaxing, calming scent. Since lavender oil is so popular, we use it in several products like our Lavender Calm Bar Soap and our Lavender Calm Sugar Scrub.
