Lime

Citrus aurantifolia

Lime has a wonderfully fresh and fruity aroma that will uplift the senses and tickle your taste buds. A staple in Mexican cuisine and an indispensable ingredient in poke bowls all over the world, lime is brimming with flavour and vitamin C. The glossy green citrus is equally prized in beauty, with lime extracts often used in perfumery and aromatherapy. Packed with fruit acids, lime also possesses astringent properties that are perfect in skin care for oily skin types, helping to minimize the appearance of pores.
