Benefits of Bergamot Essential Oil
Bergamot Oil is derived from the rind of Bergamot Orange fruit. Bergamot Orange which is scientifically known Citrus bergamia, is almost the same size as that of regular orange, but has lemon-like colour and is pear-shaped.
This tree is similar to that of Lemon Tree with long oval leaves, which can reach up to a maximum of 10 feet in height. Bergamot Essential Oil is cold pressed Essential Oil i.e this oil is extracted via cold compression method. Bergamot Essential Oil has enchanting and refreshing citrus scent due to which it is commonly used in Aromatherapy. Bergamot Oil is a clear, volatile liquid, sometimes with a greenish or yellowish green tinge. Almost 95% of this Essential Oil is made up of volatile components.
Beneficial Properties in Bergamot Oil?
Bergamot Essential Oil has a wide range of health benefits. Bergamot Oil has analgesic, anti-depressant, diuretic, tonic, deodorant, and antiseptic properties, making it beneficial to your overall health. Let us look at some of the most common beneficial properties of Bergamot Oil.
Antiseptic
Bergamot Essential Oil has antiseptic properties due to the presence of antiseptic compounds. It prevents the growth of microbes like bacteria, fungi, and viruses. As a result, it is beneficial in preventing skin and scalp infections. It aids in the treatment of dandruff, eczema, rashes and itchy skin, as well as minor cuts and wounds. It aids in the prevention of colon, intestine, urinary tract, and kidney infection.
Antibacterial
Because of the presence of the chemical compound Linalool, Bergamot Essential Oil has antibacterial properties. Linalool is responsible for treating a variety of bacterial infections, including those that cause foodborne illnesses.
Antidepressant
Bergamot Essential Oil is widely used in aromatherapy because of its refreshing and relaxing citrus scent. Inhaling Bergamot Oil with water vapour reduces anxiety and fatigue. Bergamot is an excellent antidepressant, according to studies, because it signals the brain to release dopamine and serotonin.
Antibiotic
Bergamot Essential Oil has strong antibiotic properties, which aid in the prevention of allergens in the blood that cause respiratory diseases. As a result, Bergamot Oil is extremely effective in treating common colds and coughs. For immediate relief from respiratory disorders, inhale this essential oil directly or apply 2-3 drops of Bergamot Oil to the throat and chest.
Benefits of Bergamot Essential Oil
Reduce Acne / Scar
Bergamot Oil has both cosmetic and medicinal properties. It is an effective treatment for scars and acne.
How To Use
Apply Bergamot Essential Oil to your face with a carrier oil such as Olive Oil or Jojoba Oil. After 20 minutes, wash off.
Why It Works
Bergamot Oil has the unique ability to remove all unwanted marks from your skin. It aids in the reduction of dark spots and the maintenance of an even skin tone.
Cure Chest Congestion
How To Use
Bergamot oil can be inhaled directly or gently rubbed on the chest and nose. Alternatively, a few drops of Bergamot Oil can be added to tea.
Why It Works
Bergamot Oil relieves chest congestion and other respiratory problems. Bergamot Oil acts as an expectorant, assisting in the removal of mucus from the body and the loosening of phlegm from the respiratory tract. A seasonal cold with a cough can be treated by inhaling Bergamot Oil vapors.
Relieves Pain
How To Use
Apply an equal amount of Bergamot Essential Oil and Coconut Oil to the affected area.
Why It Works
The analgesic property of bergamot oil is primarily due to its ability to promote secretions that help reduce nerve sensitivity. This aids in the reduction of pain, stress, and anxiety in the affected area. Bergamot Oil can be used topically to relieve pain from conditions such as acute headaches, chronic arthritis, muscle pain, and joint pain.
Cure Sleep Problems
How To Use
If you're having trouble sleeping, give it a shot. Diffuse a few drops of Bergamot Oil throughout your home, particularly in your bedroom.
Why It Works
Bergamot Oil relaxes the mind and body by improving blood circulation, nerve function, and having a mild sedative effect.
Reduce Headache
How To Use
To relieve headaches, inhale Bergamot Oil mixed with eucalyptus oil or gently rub Bergamot Oil on your forehead.
Why It Works
Linalool and Linalyl Acetate are the two primary chemical components of Bergamot Oil. These two ingredients have analgesic (pain-relieving) properties.
Safety Precautions
Bergamot Essential Oil, like any other essential oil, has side effects and should be used with caution.
Because this oil is concentrated, it should only be used with caution and under expert supervision.
Because of the presence of Bergaptene, a chemical compound that becomes toxic when exposed to sunlight, Bergamot Oil is highly photosensitive in nature. Bergamot oil should be kept in a cool, dark place.
After topical application, avoid exposure to sunlight.
A high dose of bergamot oil should be avoided because it can be harmful.
Before using Bergamot Oil, always perform a patch test to rule out allergies or sensitivity.
If you are sensitive, always combine with a suitable carrier oil, such as coconut or olive oil.

Midnight Chimes
Pairing: Astarion x GN!Reader/Tav Summary/Setting: Pre-BG3. You are an apothecary on holiday, visiting your family in Baldur's Gate. You happen upon a certain silver-haired rake, and think perhaps he isn't what he seems. Rating/Warnings: PG / Very mild if any game spoilers but nothing related to major content or scenes Word Count: 2.3K Notes: Playing around with a little something different. Tried to keep this GN but please lmk if you caught something! :)
-----
The bell sounded its subtle chime above the tavern door; your buzzed gaze drifts from the ink-splotched pages of the book in front of you as you assess the newcomer. A cold gust of winter air sneaks in behind the elf now entering the tavern, and you shiver before pulling your fur coat more snugly around your frame. As you do, you realize you’ve seen that particular elf around here before. It had been several years, not since you were a lowly apprentice at the apothecary shop down the street… but you’d recognize that head of perfectly coiffed silver hair anywhere.
Had it really been almost ten years since your father threw that very same stranger out of the family tavern and forbade him from coming back? Admittedly, the elf looked like he’d hardly aged a day in all that time, but you supposed that was far from unusual for his race.
Pristine silvery hair, annoyingly attractive and all too aware of that fact, holding himself with a palpable air of haughty confidence… yes, he was exactly as you remembered from those many moons ago. You were just a youngling then, not but twenty, and back then your eyes had tracked the rake and his behavior with suspicious curiosity, just as they did now.
You’d been a server all those years ago, working nights at your parents’ tavern for tips and studying at Valindra’s Vials during the day. He’d been somewhat of a regular, always leaving with some being or another wrapped in his charismatic spell, and always waltzing in a few days later entirely unattached, as if that being never existed. A rake through and through.
And then one day, father had thrown the rake out for pickpocketing, forbidding him from ever returning. Years flew by, you completed your apprenticeship and moved to Waterdeep, only to return on holidays to visit your family and endure constant badgering about settling down and finding a spouse… and you’d all but forgotten the silver-haired elf.
Yet here he was, as if nothing had changed, and as rakish as ever. Father no longer tended the bar on weekends, so no one was around to recognize the man and throw him out on a decade-long ban… besides you. And honestly? It didn’t seem worth disturbing the last few hours of your holiday on such melodramatics. In your mind, a paying patron was a welcome patron as long as they kept their sticky fingers to themselves.
The silver-haired elf enters the warmth of tavern and meanders about, glossing his scarlet eyes over the crowd before ordering something from your cousin behind the bar.
You turn your attention back to the book and the notes you’d been penning in the margins, a nearly empty glass of wine and barely eaten sweet roll your only company. You pick off another piece of the pastry and pop it into your mouth before flipping the page of your tome. Hopefully mama and papa would be in bed by the time your cousin closed the bar… and you could sneak into your room without any further harassment from those two.
Family was everything to you, and you loved your parents dearly, but during every holiday visit you were quickly reminded why you’d originally left for Waterdeep. Things became stifling after about a week in that tiny apartment, and you were more-often down in the tavern than up in the living arrangements above it toward the end of your stay. Distance truly did make the heart grow fonder in your case; you were itching to get back to the solitude of home and away from the relentless line of questioning from mama and papa. Thankfully, you’d be back on the road to Waterdeep come morning and done enduring the inquisition until the next holiday.
You see the rake slide into the seat next to you out of your peripherals, and he opens his mouth, no doubt to shoot you his best line, but you cut him off with a quick and firm, “Nope. Not interested.”
He’s stunned. Baffled. It’s written on his face as you turn to address him head on, your narrowed eyes meeting his red ones squarely and unabashedly. The elf’s mouth is hanging open; he shuts it and squints in your direction for a mere moment. Then, he takes a sip out of whatever is in his goblet and narrows his vermillion eyes at the contents inside instead... not a fan of the drink, it seems.
The stranger decides to throw away whatever poor line he was going to use on you. Instead, his gaze flickers down to the book in your hands and takes note of the new conversational material. He is clearly not going to be dissuaded by your first rejection.
“What are you reading, darling?” The silver-haired elf asks, his voice resembling something of a purr. He leans just a bit closer, faking interest in the pages as you feel his hand slip nearer to your thigh.
“A book, darling. Ever seen one before?” You responded flatly, truly in no mood for whatever game this was and pointedly pushing his hand out of your personal bubble. You snap the book shut and stare at the silver-haired elf incredulously, placing the tome in the space between your bodies as a barrier.
Something about your response caused the rake to laugh in absolute delight, as if being outright rejected had never happened to him before. He was seeming to enjoy this little exchange. You, on the other hand, were not.
“Look — what’s your name?”
“Astarion.”
“Look, Astarion, I can promise you I am not interested. I’m not playing hard to get, I’m not playing coy. You may not remember me, but I remember you… my family owns this tavern and I worked here years ago, before my father threw you out… or did you forget that technically you’re banned? I know your game; in fact, I’ve seen you play it more than once. There are plenty of fine people in this establishment that cannot take their eyes off you. So if you’re looking for a lay, take your pick of the low hanging fruit and bugger off.”
Astarion is silent, but his eyes twinkle in entertained delight around the edges, a small smirk dancing on the corner of his mouth as he appraises you. He hums softly and takes another sip of his drink before glancing around the room. Sure enough, there are more than a few patrons with their sights quite obviously set on the rake and whatever talents he may possess, but he rolls his eyes at the gawkers and turns his attention back to you. Finally, Astarion breaks the silence with a low murmur, quite intent on continuing whatever interaction this is.
Meanwhile, you’re wondering why the hell every word that comes out of his mouth sounds like the most salacious thing you’ve ever heard.
“And what if I’m not looking for a lay, hm? What if… I’m looking for a riveting intellectual discussion? Is that more up your alley, darling?” Astarion asks, that cocky eyebrow lifting in something of a challenge.
You sigh. Admittedly, "riveting intellectual discussion" wasn’t something you often came across while visiting your family; it was certainly more up your alley than whatever half-assed lines he thought he might throw like bones to a dog. And... it would be nice to have someone to share a decent conversation with for once, if the rake could actually stand up to the challenge.
“Fine.” You mutter before downing the rest of your wine and gesturing to your cousin, who was now watching you from the bar with vague curiosity, for a refill. Astarion smiles before tapping the cover of your book with long, lithe fingers.
“Notable Poisons and Toxins of the Sword Coast?” He asks, a glint of mischief in his eyes. "Looking to murder someone, perhaps?"
“I’m an apothecary.” You explain with a dismissive wave of your hand.
This intrigues the elf even further and he leans closer to you, this time genuinely, which makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. He rests his head on his hand as he watches you, bidding you with a small gesture to continue on. You aren’t interested in a rake you tell yourself, even though he’s somehow even more attractive up close.
“I sell mostly perfumes, soaps, and basic medicinals for ailments in Waterdeep nowadays. Poisons and antidotes aren’t a particularly big seller... but I still prefer to remain up to date on the latest information.”
“Do you know of any poisons that can kill the undead?”
Your brow furrows. What an exceptionally odd and particular question. But then again, this man did promise intellectual conversation, and discussing bread and butter poisons would’ve been far from riveting to you. Perhaps he was truly interested… or at least actually attempting to pursue an intellectual conversation, though most people you interacted with showed much less interest in your craft. At any rate, you were happy for an opportunity to showcase your knowledge.
“A positoxin would do the trick. Difficult to make and difficult to come by, though… and ridiculously expensive, to boot.” You murmur, taking a sip from your newly filled goblet.
Astarion nods and hums, the gears behind his eyes turning and processing thoughts you cannot read. He cocks his head slightly, raising that ridiculous eyebrow in that simultaneously captivating and arrogant way of his. His voice comes out low, tone carrying notes of teasing playfulness. “And what about you, darling? Do you think you’re… skilled enough to make this positoxin?”
“Yes.” You murmur confidently, and yet you blush. You know your skill set to be strong, sure, but it was unusual to be placed in a position where you actually had to display that confidence. Especially to a strange rake you just met that very night.
Astarion laughs again and shakes his head. “Cheeky little thing, aren’t you? Then, tell me how you would go about it.”
You continue on for several minutes, you don’t really know why, apart from the fact that Astarion is absolutely engrossed in everything you’re saying and it’s the first time anyone has actually listened to you prattle on about potions. You inform the elf that the art of positoxins is notoriously difficult and would take several weeks and a handful of hard to come by ingredients to brew just one vial. Astarion bids you to go on as he finishes his goblet, asking all the right questions to keep you talking and soaking up every ounce of information as you continue.
The conversation does not lull; you feel the passion and excitement in your voice grow as you become less guarded. The rake proves to be a wonderful audience, able to follow along with your level of intellect and interject his own knowledge in only the way an educated person could. Yet he was content to let you take the lead and just listen. It was surprisingly refreshing to have someone really hear and understand you… and actually take interest in something you were fascinated by instead of outright dismissing it or just nodding along.
Soon enough the clock tower chimes midnight and your cousin is yelling last call to everyone in the bar, much to the disappointment of the poor drunkards. Astarion’s eyes, previously lulled into a soft and cat-like gaze by your ramblings, snapped into a wide-eyed, forlorn expression. “Gods, is that really the time? I-I have to go.”
He practically jolts out of the seat, his tone hurried and gestures fidgety. “I-it was nice meeting you, uh…”
“I’m Tav.” You respond softly, your eyebrows furrowing as you study the man and his sudden change in demeanor.
“Tav. Yes, lovely to meet you. Perhaps I’ll see you around here tomorrow and you can tell me more about positoxins or perhaps some alchemical cure for vampirism… seems you have a plethora of knowledge to share and I’m all pointy ears.”
Your face falls, and for the first time you realize how much you wish that were a true possibility. “I return to Waterdeep tomorrow, I’m afraid. I can’t leave the shop in the hands of my apprentice for too long.”
Astarion’s expression matches yours and you sigh in disappointment as you drop your hand into your bag and start rustling around inside. Perhaps you’d misjudged the elf and he hadn’t been exactly what he seemed; you’d quite enjoyed his company, in the end. You pull out a small card with your shop address on it; there is a sample vial attached to the card by a jute cord.
“Here. This is my address in Waterdeep. Feel free to write. I come back at least once a year to visit my family… but sometimes more, if there’s something worth coming back for.” Your hint is subtle, but you hope he catches your meaning. Your fingers brush his as he takes the card, and you swear you feel the tingle of connection. Or perhaps that’s the two glasses of wine talking.
The silver-haired elf takes the offering, looking down at the inscription and running his fingers over the embossed words before he tucks everything into his pocket. “And what’s in the vial?”
“A sample. Like I told you, I primarily sell perfumes and soaps nowadays. That mixture is one of my favorites… a delightful combination of bergamot and rosemary... and a secret ingredient I won't name. Try it out and tell me what you think in your letter."
Astarion shakes his head just slightly, almost imperceptibly, a faraway look in his eyes. The clock tower bells chime again, their second call for the midnight hour, and he snaps back into the present. The elf turns to look at you one last time, eyes boring into yours with such shocking intensity. “I really must be going. It was… truly a lovely surprise to meet you, Tav.”
He grabs your hand in his shockingly cold grip, gives it a squeeze, and swiftly exits. You hear the tinkling of the doorbell and watch as the rake runs down the alley before dodging into the shadows and altogether disappearing from view.
You grab the goblet he left behind, along with your own dishes, and walk behind the oak bar to help your cousin close up as the final patrons make their drunken exits in a cacophony of grunts, arguments, and off-tune singing.
“Who was that?” Your cousin asks, nodding his head toward the seats you and Astarion just occupied moments ago as he wipes down the bar and all manner of filth left by the patrons that night. “A potential suitor, perhaps? Your parents will be thrilled.”
“Oh… I think probably not. A rake of a man, to be sure. He was quite cute, though. In another life… I think we could’ve been friends.” You respond as you begin with the dishes, the warmth of the water washing away the coolness imbued in your fingertips from the elf’s touch.
Tomorrow you’ll head home to Waterdeep and the solitude of your apothecary shop. Part of you will wait for a letter that doesn't show, and you'll shove your disappointment deep into the back of your mind, never once admitting it to yourself. But fate spins along as it should, and a few years from now you'll be standing on an unfamiliar beach after a horrible crash, the familiar scent of rosemary and bergamot drifting in the air.

Soap, aside from the individual sensitivity or allergy, is safe for photosensitivity reasons because it washes off. 🤦♀️ You're not rubbing the soap on and leaving it there. If you have a reaction after using soap, stop using it and see if specific testing is warranted. Don't blame the
NO essential oil should be put on the skin without dilution - like in a carrier oil or in a commercially produced product like a lotion.
Lush literally has an Orange blossom perfume with dominant notes of bergamot, neroli and orange blossom. While perfumes with an alcohol base should in general not be worn on skin exposed to sun, perfume makers know what works and what is safe for the general population.
Is general caution warrented? Yes, absolutely! Essential oils are very powerful extracts - if I remember correctly for one 10 ml bottle of rose essential oil, a ton of rose petals is needed. Think about that when you add EO drops to your diffuser or in your homemade soap. Overuse or use of too high doses of EO's càn sensitize your skin and make it overreact to other products too.
PSA: Don’t put fucking bergamot on your skin or in your soap.
I’ve been seeing a lot of this shit lately.
Apparently bergamot is getting popular. I figure now’s a good time to address the issue.
Bergamot is a citrus fruit that smells amazing, so a lot of people like to make essential oils out of it and put it in candles and stuff.
However, this should NEVER go on your skin. It has the same effects as Giant Hogweed (& some other wild carrots like Queen Anne’s Lace) and will give you nasty rashes and chemically hyper-boosted sunburns by making skin highly reactive to sunlight.
Remember this?
I personally have had friends who were seriously hurt by putting bergamot essential oils on their skin. It sucks.
In case you don’t want to look it up yourself:
Don’t use or make bergamot soap. Don’t use or make bergamot lotion. Don’t use or make bergamot anything that goes on your skin.
Just don’t put bergamot on your skin.
Stay safe beautiful! <3 And please signal boost this!
#essential oils#safe use of herbal derivates#Also the OP's line 'a lot of people like to make EO out of bergamot' - how many people do you know with a home distillation system???????#EO's are generally NOT produced at home LOL#If people knew more about the production process they might be more careful about using them#also: anyone who claims 'normal' perfumes are hormone disruptors but EO's are safe because they are natural#well do I have some news for you!!#EO's are so powerful many of them also function as hormone disruptors!#some contain elements that are downright poisonous if inhaled in too high doses and will make your liver work overtime
