Essential Oils For Oily Skin

When using the correct essential oil and carrier oil you can find great benefits from the use of essential oils topically. Jojoba oil is a great choice as it is non comedogenic, meaning it doesn't clog pores. For example, Lavender essential oil or Chamomile essential oil can help with the inflammation that acne raises in the skin, this will help take the redness away from the area and leave your skin with a nice even complexion.

With care! Use at a low dilution, for example, 2 drops to 10ml carrier oil. See more about dilution here. You can also use Lavender essential oil neat on the skin as a spot treatment, simply apply one drop to the area of concern. If your essential oil is diluted in a carrier oil already, such as Chamomile 3% (German), you can also apply this directly to the skin as it is already appropriately diluted.

Absolutely! Simply add one drop to your nighttime cream and enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy on the skin. Not only will this help clear, brighten and nourish your skin, it will create a beautiful evening ritual for you to ease into sleep with.
