dōTERRA abōde™ Foaming Hand Wash Concentrate Infused with dōTERRA Citrus Bloom™
This is a concentrate rather than a ready-to-use hand wash — the 8 fl oz bottle is designed to be mixed one part concentrate to three parts water, then used through a foaming dispenser rather than straight from the bottle.
It's infused with Citrus Bloom, a five-oil blend of Wild Orange, Grapefruit, Lavender, Roman Chamomile and Magnolia, so the aroma reads bright and citrus at first with a soft floral finish. Natural plant-based surfactants and banana fruit extract do the cleansing and conditioning work, and the formula leaves out parabens, phthalates, phosphates, dyes and synthetic fragrance.
Once diluted and loaded into a foaming dispenser, it pumps out as a light foam rather than a liquid or gel, in keeping with the rest of the foaming hand washes in the range.
Why people choose it
- A concentrate, not ready-to-use — dilute one part concentrate to three parts water
- Infused with Citrus Bloom — Wild Orange, Grapefruit, Lavender, Roman Chamomile and Magnolia
- Bright citrus aroma with a soft floral finish
- Plant-based surfactants and banana fruit extract, with no parabens, phthalates, phosphates, dyes or synthetic fragrance
- Designed for use with a foaming hand wash dispenser, sold separately
How to use it
- In a diffuser
- This is a hand wash rather than a diffuser oil, so the aroma comes through as you wash rather than through a diffuser.
- On skin
- Dilute one part concentrate to three parts purified water, then load into a foaming dispenser and use on hands as you would any hand wash.
- Worth knowing
- Undiluted concentrate is stronger than the finished hand wash — always dilute before it reaches skin.

Common questions
Is this ready to use straight from the bottle?
No — it's a concentrate. Mix one part concentrate to three parts water before it goes into a foaming dispenser.
What sort of dispenser does it need?
A foaming hand wash dispenser, sold separately, topped up with this concentrate once diluted.
What does Citrus Bloom smell like?
Bright and citrus-led from Wild Orange and Grapefruit, with a softer floral finish from Lavender, Roman Chamomile and Magnolia.
How big is the bottle?
8 fl oz of concentrate, which goes a long way once diluted to three parts water.
Is it the same formula as the On Guard Foaming Hand Wash?
No — that one is ready-mixed with the On Guard blend. This is a concentrate carrying the Citrus Bloom aroma instead, and needs diluting before use.
