Australia is home to more than 700 types of fast-growing, flowering evergreens known as eucalyptus. Part of the myrtle family (Myrtaceae), these plants can grow to be 18 meters tall and 4.5 meters wide.
 
dōTERRA has selected five unique species to create its proprietary Eucalyptus essential oil: Eucalyptus radiata, Eucalyptus polybractea, Eucalyptus kochii, Eucalyptus loxophleba, and Eucalyptus globulus.
 
The primary chemical component of all five species is eucalyptol (1,8-cineole), which is the source of many of the essential oil’s rich benefits. These include effective surface and skin cleansing properties, as well as a fresh aroma that can create a revitalizing atmosphere when diffused. Use both aromatically and topically to enjoy the clear, refreshing aroma of Eucalyptus or include in a soothing massage for a stimulating aroma.
 
Ingredients; 
Eucalyptus Radiata;  Previously, our Eucalyptus essential oil was solely Eucalyptus radiata. Now, this species is the first in the blend!
Eucalyptus Polybractea;  Known as the blue-leaved mallee or just blue mallee, Eucalyptus polybractea is sweeter than most eucalyptus species—almost like honey.
Eucalyptus Kochii;  Eucalyptus kochii is also a hero ingredient in abode® essential oil blend and other products in that family.
Eucalyptus Loxophleba;  This part of the essential oil blend is actually Eucalyptus loxophelba subspecies, lissophlia. Yes, that’s a mouthful, so it’s commonly referred to as eucalyptus lox liss.
Eucalyptus Globulus;  The final species in our Eucalyptus oil blend is Eucalyptus globulus. You may be familiar with this particular species, as it’s used in doTERRA On Guard® essential oil blend.
