With this in mind, we still have our favourites when it comes to summer essential oils. Particularly popular oils for this season include romantic florals such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34625\" class=\"broken_link\">Lavender<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34715\" class=\"broken_link\">Geranium<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/35601\" class=\"broken_link\">Ylang Ylang<\/a>, with their soft, sweet and gentle aromas and cooling essential oils such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34626\" class=\"broken_link\">Peppermint<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34757\" class=\"broken_link\">Spearmint<\/a>, which can provide welcome refreshment when applied topically during warm weather. Some of the most summery essential oils are our citrus oils, with their zesty, invigorating aromas that can cut through the heat of the scorching sun with ease. Oils including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34624\" class=\"broken_link\">Lemon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34645\" class=\"broken_link\">Orange<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34691\" class=\"broken_link\">Tangerine<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/34688\" class=\"broken_link\">Young Living Citrus Fresh\u00ae<\/a> can be used in everything from perfumes to evening skincare routines, however, due to their photosensitive nature, caution is recommended when applying these oils topically.<\/p>\n<p>With photosensitive oils, the compounds\u2014known as furanocoumarins\u2014greatly increase UV sensitivity. For this reason, we advise that anyone applying citrus oils topically waits between 12-48 hours, as per label instructions, before exposing their skin to the sun.
