Bergamot Essential Oil

(Citrus aurantium bergamia)

Bergamot Essential Oil, FCF (Bergapten-Free)
A gentle and sun-safe alternative to traditional Bergamot oil, we use Bergamot FCF (Furanocoumarin-Free) Essential Oil—also known as Bergapten-Free (BPF) Bergamot—is specially crafted for skincare, haircare, and aromatherapy applications where sun sensitivity is a concern. By removing bergapten, the natural compound responsible for photosensitization, this version offers all the therapeutic benefits of Bergamot without the worry of sun exposure after use.

Rich in both history and benefits, Bergamot traces its origins to Southeast Asia but found its true home along the sun-drenched coasts of Southern Italy—most notably in Reggio di Calabria and Sicily. The oil gets its name from the Italian city of Bergamo, where it was first sold and celebrated for its uplifting fragrance and healing properties.

Benefits & Uses

Bergamot FCF is far more than just a clean, citrusy aroma—it’s a multi-tasking essential oil with a wide range of topical and emotional benefits:

• Skincare & Haircare: Known for its natural toning and cleansing properties, Bergamot FCF supports healthy skin by helping to reduce the appearance of blemishes and minimize pores. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities make it especially effective for acne-prone skin, while its antioxidants contribute to a more radiant, youthful complexion. It also supports scalp health and revitalizes hair, leaving it feeling refreshed and clean.

• Safe for Sunlight: Because this version is free from bergapten—the furanocoumarin compound that can cause skin sensitivity in the sun—it’s ideal for daytime skincare formulations and leave-on products.

• Emotional Support: Energetically, Bergamot FCF is a natural mood-lifter. It’s known to ease feelings of anxiety, irritability, or emotional overwhelm, making it a favorite for promoting peace, balance, and emotional clarity. Its calming, restorative qualities also make it a supportive ally for restful sleep and overall emotional wellness.

Bergamot FCF delivers the revitalizing benefits of this beloved citrus oil—safely and beautifully.
