Top 5 Beauty Enhancing Essential Oils - Nat Dunbar, Oil Diffuser Shop

Nowadays it is common for many women to check the ingredients of beauty products before purchasing and applying it directly to their biggest organ, the skin. Us ladies have evolved so much, we are smarter, stronger and more empowered than ever taking the time to investigate natural methods to enhance our health, without decimating the environment.

Here are some of the best essential oils to help you keep your skin in check, during winter.

1. Rosehip Oil

An ancient favourite said to be used by royalty, gods and Cleopatra to reduce skin pigmentation, counter the impacts of stretch marks and brighten up the skin. Who knew that the cat loving Egyptians would hold this oil in high stead after their queen of the Nile.

2. Jojoba Oil

Apart from a natural moisturiser, this soothing bounty from earth assists skin with antibacterial properties, collagen synthesis ability and it is a noncomedogenic oil. Those pesky pore blocking and pimple producing moments are kept at bay with jojoba.

3. Rose Oil

Not only a beautiful flower and gesture of love. When made into an essential oil through the distillation process, it helps neutralise moisture in skin, improve the appearance of imperfections by evening out tone and makes you smell fresh. Everyone loves rose, your skin will too.

4. Palmarosa Oil

Like rose oil, Palmarosa has a high consistency of ingredient geraniol which is what makes the enamouring floral scented note. A drop of this oil in your moisturiser or serum enhances skin tone and it can also be used in a diffuser to uplift the room and boost the good vibes. But beware, to use this topically it must be diluted for safety. A few drops added into massage oil can also help ease muscle tension.

5. Geranium Oil

Is a harmonising essential oil that aligns mind, body and soul. It is traditionally used for enriching hair and skin and can be used to tame tension at that time of the month. A beautifying oil known for application under arms before using deodorant to create scent longevity. Also used for facial steams and after showers for a silky-smooth bedtime layer that gets absorbed overnight. If added to shampoo it can help with scalp moisturisation and hair growth.

Mother nature is powerful, and her bounty provides some natural plant-based goodness that have been around since the dawn of time to help us. Always dilute and test essential oils first before using as some can irritate skin and eyes if used in pure form.
