Your skin needs the best of care from early on, so you can prevent signs of aging from making an appearance, while maintaining its natural glow and suppleness. Essential oils play an integral role here – they are often touted to be the life force of the plant they are extracted from. Take a look at 3 of the most important essential oils for skin:
Lavender Oil
Lavender oil works wonders when it comes to soothing eczema and dry skin conditions by balancing the skin’s moisture barrier. It also reduces redness, blotchy patches, and acne scarring, while helping to detoxify skin at the same time. Since lavender oil is a potent source of antioxidants and other beneficial phytochemicals that fight free radical damage, it protects against wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots.
Tea Tree Oil
This is a plant extract that is being extensively researched within last few years as it has a plethora of healing benefits for the skin. The essential oil extracted from the Melaleuca alternifolia, a shrub like plant which has several antiseptic and antimicrobial properties. It not only heals itching, rashes, swelling and irritation, but has antibacterial properties that can treat acne as well. Regular usage can prevent whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, blemishes and disinfect the skin pores.
Sage Oil
This essential oil comes from the steam distilled leaves of the herb sage or Salvia Officinalis. It greatly contributes to healthy balanced skin. It regulates oil production in the skin, while helping to combat bacteria and free radicals on the skin that can cause premature ageing and fine lines. It diminishes the appearance of blemishes and soothes skin abrasions too. These essential oils are gentler and natural alternatives to medications and harsh chemicals, which is why using face masks containing these, can help to resolve numerous skin problems.
