Neroli contains rejuvenating and regenerating benefits for every skin type, but its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic properties make it a star for oily and blemished skin. It helps to maintain moisture levels and balance oily skin and also has the ability to prevent infection and reduce irritation in skin damaged by acne or trauma. It works by inhibiting the growth of pathogens. Since most pathogens excrete metabolic wastes, neroli can help protect the skin from further harm caused by toxicity.

Neroli is also revered for its potential to regenerate the skin from scar tissue. This is likely due to its cytophylactic actions, meaning neroli essential oil promotes the regeneration of new cells, while invigorating current skin cells. This makes neroli a graceful-aging superhero that protects and preserves skin’s youthfulness, while ensuring its longevity.
