Tangerine and Mandarin are evergreen citrus trees native to Asia but now are predominantly grown in Italy, Argentina, and the United States (warmer climates). The tree grows about 10-25 ft and has fragrant white flowers which develop into orange fruit.  Citrus Essential Oils that are 'folded' are more concentrated than regular citrus essential oils. Through extended distillation, terpenes are removed from the oil rendering it more suitable for cosmetic applications.

Natural Blends are oils obtained by blending natural isolates from various essential oils to achieve an economical product that resembles the fragrance of pure essential oil. Natural Blends are all-natural, and do not contain any synthetic ingredients or aromatic compounds, nor do they contain artificial flavors or colorants. They are suitable for all-natural product preparations and can be used to fragrance various cosmetic products.
