Coriander essential oil is similar in chemical composition to Lavender oil, containing high amounts of linalool. This linalool content makes Coriander essential oil one of the best essential oils for the skin because it helps the skin maintain a clean-looking, clear complexion. This is a very unique characteristic for spice essential oils, and Coriander essential oil’s bright, almost citrus-like scent makes it a wonderful alternative in skincare for those who prefer earthier aromas to florals. Like Lavender oil, Coriander essential oil also offers a particularly soothing aroma.
