Like Cedarwood, CYPRESS is another wood-based Essential Oil under $20. This wonderful oil would be a great addition to your Essential Oil stash.
 
The clean, fresh aroma of CYPRESS Essential Oil promotes vitality and energy, while topical application helps to invigorate the senses.
 
Derived from the branches of the tall evergreen tree, CYPRESS Essential Oil has a fresh, clean aroma that’s energizing and refreshing. CYPRESS is frequently used in spas and by massage therapists, so it is one of the single oils included in the Massage Blend. 
 
CYPRESS can be diffused or inhaled directly, but should not be swallowed or taken internally. CYPRESS contains monoterpenes, making it beneficial for oily skin conditions. It has a grounding, yet stimulating effect on the emotions, making it a popular oil to diffuse during times of transition or loss.
