Tea tree oil. I use it whenever I see a spot on my face and it dries out quickly!

Oh, rose geranium sounds lovely! Mmmmm....

I cannot decide which is my favorite for either question.

In the past couple days, I have used tea tree, lavender, and Roman chamomile for several issues. I usually use lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus radiata the most, though (therapeutically).

The citrus scents are probably my favorite just to smell. I have lemon, sweet orange, and pink grapefruit. MMMmmmmmmmmm........

Tea tree or chamomile, for therapeutic use.

Neroli or rose geranium, for the scent. Neroli is so FRAKKIN' expensive I never buy it, though. *sigh*

I've never smelled neroli, but I have read about it and keep my eyes open for it whenever I see EOs......

geranium, eucalyptus, and lavender with tea tree all for scent.

and rose. love love love rose. but the cost of pure rose is alot. totally worth it of course given the number of pounds of rose petals to make even an ounce of essential oil...so i save it for very very special occasions.

i use geranium therputically right now and i just love it.
