Twinkle Diary

“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet!” Errrr, not quite, in the case of Geranium! Did you know that the Geranium has a rose-like floral scent and is often mistaken for rose? Nevertheless, the Geranium is no wallflower! It is widely used in floral scented lotions and soaps. Geranium essential oil is extracted from the stems and leaves of the plant via steam distillation.

Uses of Geranium essential oil can be traced to ancient Egypt when Egyptians used Geranium oil to beautify skin and for other benefits. Rightly so, because Geranium is great for the skin. Geranium oil promotes cell regeneration to make sure that skin feels renewed and smooth. In addition, the astringent effect of Geranium oil may help tighten the skin and give a smoother texture. Was it part of Cleopatra’s beauty routine? We wonder.

Geranium essential oil has strong microbial properties and hence, a great addition in the Twinkle 3-in-1 Hand Sanitizer to protect against bacteria. It’s also a natural bug repellant! Yup, we said it, floral scented bug repellant! Pair the Twinkle 3-in-1 Hand Sanitizer with the Anti-Dust Mite Spray for maximum protect against bacteria and infections.
