Feel
Limonene works well as a topical against acne due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Be careful to dilute it with a carrier oil, such as jojoba or coconut oil, before applying it directly to your skin.

Live
You can use herbs and citrus fruits rich in limonene to make home-made, chemical-free insect repellant for your garden plants. Limonene is also a main component of citronella, a common natural mosquito repellant.
