How to Use Essential Oils for Blemishes:

The easiest way to use essential oils for acne is to apply right to the trouble area twice per day. People with sensitive skin will need to dilute 1-2 drops with a carrier oil. The best carrier oils for skin care include: coconut oil, jojoba oil, evening primrose oil, rosehip seed oil, argan oil, and pomegranate seed oil. The most common one to use for natural beauty products is coconut oil.

Another idea on how to use essential oils for blemishes is to add a couple drops of each essential oil into your face wash or lotions for some extra benefits. This works great because it is an easy way to help support the skin. Remember that a little bit goes a long way, so less is always more!

*Make sure if you are just starting out with essential oils that you speak to your doctor before using and perform a “patch test” on the skin to see if any sensitives occur.
