YLANG YLANG, The romance essential oil
Ylang Ylang essential oil is derived from the star-shaped flowers of the tropical Ylang Ylang tree and is used extensively in making perfumes and in aromatherapy. Similar to Jasmine, Ylang Ylang has been used for centuries in religious and wedding ceremonies. In aromatherapy, Ylang Ylang is used to lessen tension and stress and to promote a positive outlook. Ylang Ylang is frequently used in luxurious hair and skin products for its scent and nourishing and protective properties. Taken internally, Ylang Ylang provides antioxidant support.
In celebration of the most romantic month of the year, Ylang Ylang will fill the air at the Skin Rx LLC facial room with its rich and sweet scents. Its aroma is an aphrodisiac which stimulates passion and sexual arousal. An aphrodisiac can help reduce physical, psychological, or emotional conditions which might interfere with passion and libido.
You will experience ylang ylang as it is diffused into the air, steamed during the facials, and applyed to the bottom of your feet during a massage.
This yellow, star-shaped flower is a gem of the aroma industry and its essential oil can be used to create a relaxing atmosphere.
