Wouldn’t it be so much better to know exactly what’s in your beauty regimen? To be in control of these components that will go onto your face that would potentially keep it healthy and radiant? Well, lucky for you because you’re about to learn essential oil recipes that would make your complexion, not only smoother but also more nourished.

 

You see, the thing about essential oils is that they already give such amazing benefits on their own – even in a small bottle – you’d be convinced it’s enough to use alone. However, the other thing about them is that they are better when mixed together. I mean, why settle for a limited amount of goodness from one bottle when you can enjoy so much more when blending two or three essential oils.

 

So here are 5 recipes that would address a number of your skin concerns:

 

1. Fight Acne

 

 

• Incorporate Lavender, Orange and Chamomile Oil onto Hazelnut Oil (Carrier Oil) for an effective cleanser that unclogs pores without making the skin oily. This combination has antibacterial properties, which can protect skin from pimple-causing bacteria.

• Strengthens and nourishes the skin while helping to reduce signs of skin aging because of its antioxidants.

 

2. Prevent Premature Aging

 

 

• Blend Frankincense, Ylang-Ylang and Hazelnut Oil (Carrier Oil) to firm and moisturize the skin, as well as reduce wrinkle and blemish appearance.

 

3. Relieve Swelling

 

 

• Combine 1 drop Chamomile, 1 drop Lavender and 30 ml Tamanu Oil (Carrier Oil) to reduce the appearance of redness and rashes.

• ¼ teaspoon of this blend is gentle enough to treat diaper rash for newborns.

 

4. Healthy-looking Hair and Scalp

 

 

• Mix Lemongrass, Peppermint, Chamomile and Argan Oil (Carrier Oil) to prevent scalp irritation, while it cleanses the skin and removes excess oils.

• Adds natural shine and softness to the hair

 

5. Soothe Foot Problems

 

 

• Infuse Tamanu Oil (Carrier Oil) with Tea Tree and Peppermint Oil to calm and improve the appearance of irritated skin caused by blisters, bunions, corns, etc. This mixture also eliminates odor-causing bacteria.

• Relieves dry cracked skin by improving moisturization

 

These are just five essential oil combinations using a handful of ingredients but already we can see just how much more benefits one can get. We’ve basically got everything we need in this world to better our bodies, ourselves. We just have to learn how to utilize what we have in order to get the full reward.

When the name Miranda Kerr comes up, we immediately think of an incredibly gorgeous woman. Kerr is one of the most celebrated Victoria's Secret Angels and she has modeled for several brands such as Prada, Dior, Givenchy and has appeared in the covers of Vogue, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar. Today, she juggles modeling and being a doting mother to her son, Flynn. Despite her hectic schedule, Kerr manages to keep her skin flawless and radiant. And what is behind her glowing skin? She reveals that it's her favorite oil: Rosehip Oil!

Kerr says, " “I like to wear rosehip oil at night. It’s full of that many antioxidants and it really works on a cellular level too to rejuvenate the skin. I put that on at night and I wake up glowing."

Rosehip oil is extracted from the seeds of rose bushes grown in Chile. This oil is packed with Vitamins A and C, antioxidants, essential fatty acids. The vitamins stimulate collagen production which restores the skin's elasticity and reduces fine lines, while the antioxidants fights free radicals that cause sun damage. The essential fatty acids improve the skin's tone, texture, and pigmentation, giving the skin a radiant glow. Plus, rosehip oil is lightweight and is absorbed by the skin easily.

With all the amazing benefits rosehip oils brings to the skin, many foreign skincare brands have incorporated it into their products. But you don't have to shell out thousands of dollars to buy this wonder oil because V&M Naturals' Pure Actives line gives you its very own pure Rosehip Oil, sourced all the way from Chile. For a Miranda Kerr beauty glow, gently massage 2-3 drops of V&M Naturals' Rosehip Oil into your face before you go to sleep at night.
