5 Essential Oil Recipes For Skincare
As natural products of the earth, essential oils have various uses in skincare recipes. They are beneficial for boosting natural toxin defenses, treating acne, and revitalizing your external organs. If you are looking for clean skincare recipes, these are the formulas for you!
1. Sunburn Spray
Sunburns are always painful and uncomfortable. The peeling skin that results from sunburn is nasty and frustrating because it seems neverending! Sunburns can lead to skin damage down the road if you are not careful! However, it is important to expose your skin to some sunny rays before lathering on the sunscreen. If you do get burnt, try this treatment recipe on your sunburn.
The only ingredients you will need are 16 ounces of distilled water and 20 drops of lavender essential oil. Fill your bottle with distilled water, and then add the lavender oil. Make sure to combine your ingredients in a glass spray bottle. Essential oils can erode plastic, and you want this supply to last you all summer! Spray the liquid onto your sunburn twice a day until it goes away, or (hopefully) turns into a nice tan!

2. Natural Sunscreen
If you have oily skin, then you know that face sunscreen can increase breakouts. Finding the right sunscreen that won’t make your skin oily can seem like an impossible task. This sunscreen recipe has just one ingredient, and it won’t cause your skin to overproduce oils!
All you need is the helichrysum essential oil. Once you have washed your face, squeeze your normal amount of moisturizer into the palm of your hand, and put two drops of helichrysum in the moisturizer. Rub your hands together to mix in the oil, and moisturize your face like normal. You can reapply this combination throughout the day if you need to.

3. Natural Moisturizer
If you need a moisturizer recipe for your natural sunscreen combination, then try this simple recipe! The combination of oils in this treatment work to treat acne scars, reduce blemishes, and prevent future breakouts. Again, make sure that you mix this recipe in a glass container since essential oils will erode plastic. You may want to use a blender or food processor to combine the ingredients since aloe vera gel is very dense.
6 drops of lavender essential oil
3 drops of frankincense essential oil
1 tablespoon aloe vera gel
1 tablespoon fractionated coconut oil

4. Acne Treatment
Essential oils can combine to create various skincare recipes that will revitalize your most important organ! If you struggle with acne, you have most likely tried several facial remedies. Although some prescribed medications may successfully clear your skin, they often have adverse effects on your internal organs. Using essential oils to treat acne will gently boost your skin’s natural toxin defense and protect your internal organs from fighting medication side effects.
Melaleuca, Teatree, and Patchouli are excellent treatments for acne breakouts and scars! DÅTerra has a melaleuca rollerball that you can use to treat patches of acne. If the smell of melaleuca is too strong for you, try combing these ingredients for a homemade acne remedy. Read More...
