Litsea Cubeba essential oil

 

Litsea Cubeba isn’t a name that rolls off the tongue. But that’s no issue to the essential oil fans with its many wellness and skincare benefits.  More commonly known as May Chang, Litsea Cubeba is a tree native to Southern China and Southeast Asia. The tree’s small pepper-shaped fruits, called cubebs, are the essential oil source used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a range of ailments from indigestion to lower back pain to headaches. Litsea essential oil can also be effective in fighting colds and coughs because it has antibacterial and antiviral properties.

Litsea Cubeba has a pleasant, lemony scent, which is uplifting and rejuvenating.  The essential oil is beneficial for combating depression, anxiety, fear, and psychological issues.

Litsea Cubeba benefits the skin in several ways. Its gentle astringent properties help clean pores, and its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory action minimizes and heals existing skin flare-ups.
