Citrus aurantifolia, commonly known as lime, offers a complex profile of phytonutrients that support skin clarity and overall vitality. Its essential oil contains natural aromatic compounds that exhibit cleansing, toning, and invigorating properties. These characteristics make lime a valuable ingredient for addressing oily or congested skin and for refreshing the senses.

Lime’s bright, uplifting aroma reflects the presence of naturally occurring terpenes that help create a sense of clarity and renewal. When incorporated into topical formulations, these compounds support the skin’s natural ability to balance oil, refine texture, and maintain a healthy microbiome. The gentle astringent action can help minimize the appearance of pores and keep the complexion feeling clear and vibrant.

Beyond the skin, lime has a long history of use in traditional wellness practices. Its invigorating nature can energize the senses, while its aromatic profile is often used to help maintain a feeling of openness and ease in the body.

Lime is a beloved ingredient in our PURIFY face wash, where it contributes to the formula’s bright, refreshing character. It helps support the skin’s natural cleansing processes while complementing the clay and botanical extracts that PURIFY is known for.
