#33 Lime I love Lime. I use Lime more than Lemon except on fish. I add it to my tartar tho. A couple of drops goes great in a beer or mixed drink to give it that nice tart zip.

#30 Lemon Lemon oil is used all the time here. I use it in furniture polish, to take labels and glue off things, and to help remove stains from oily things like salad dressing or pizza sauce. A drop of Lemon oil on a fresh oil stain breaks up the fat in the spot to release the oil out of it leaving little or no mark behind. Better than a tide spot treater while I'm out or home. It has many other uses in our home and I'm sure your list is long too. I am NOT allergic to this oi...l. Uses Take internally to assist with seasonal respiratory discomfort.* Add Lemon oil to a spray bottle of water to clean tables, countertops, and other surfaces.

Use a cloth soaked in Lemon oil to preserve and protect your leather furniture and other leather surfaces or garments. Lemon oil is a great remedy for the early stages of tarnish on silver and other metals. Diffuse to create an uplifting environment. Cautions Possible skin sensitivity. Keep out of reach of children.

#29 Lavender Well funny thing is I do NOT like the smell but what it does is worth every second I have it on. I know I am not normal. Anyways I posted earlier about using Lavender on a fresh burn(If I knew tonight's oil was this I would have waited) and how it too out the sting instantly and it never blistered. Well not a bubble blister but the top layer was shot. I also use it for itching but I don't need help sleeping normally. It is in Correct X which I use for every littl...e nick and cut. And now this burn. I put it on a paper towel in the cage with a very nervous dog and it helps them also. I am NOT allergic to this oil.
