This essential oil is extracted from wild grass that is mowed just before flowering. There are two types of the plant - "motia" and "sofia", of which "motia" is more valued for its pleasant aroma. Because of its rose-like scent, in the past, unscrupulous sellers of essential oils even liked to dilute the extremely expensive rose oil with palmarosa oil. In fact, their aromas go well together. Anyone familiar with the smell of palmarosa oil will easily recognize its note in a low-quality product.

Palmarosa oil is widely used in cosmetics, it is a very popular fragrance for soaps, shower gels, and perfumery.

A large amount of palmarosa oil in cosmetics has a skin-lightening effect because it slows down the activity of the enzyme tyrosinase, which is involved in the production of the skin pigment melanin. An excellent active additive for cosmetics against hyperpigmentation, suitable for mature skin to reduce the signs of aging and the visibility of wrinkles. Palmarosa oil will help to even out the skin tone and restore a brighter, even-toned skin. This oil is perfect for acne-prone skin because it helps to normalize the skin's microflora by regulating the amount of some pathogenic microbes. However, palmarosa oil can increase skin sebum production and is mainly recommended for dry skin to normalize the water-oil balance.

The lemongrass genus is famous for its repellent properties, so it's no surprise that palmarosa oil, extracted from ginger lemongrass, has also received attention in research for its repellent properties. This oil has been found to be poisonous to some species of mites and flour that spoil stored flour and grain products.

In aromatherapy, palmarose is a good antidepressant that boosts mood and suppresses stress. We recommend trying palmarosa oil for home aromatization by adding it to an essential oil vaporizer.
