Your beauty concerns and routine are important to you. The routine that you use has a big impact on your beauty concerns, which is why you want only the best products that provide results.

There are a lot of different beauty companies and stores that want to sell you a ton of different beauty products. While this may seem like a good idea at first, you realize that they keep coming out with new products that they want you to buy. Eventually you are left with a lot of beauty products that you will never use.

To prevent that from happening and for you to take a little more natural approach to your routine, here are 5 concerns you can address with essential oils:

Dry Skin Concerns

If you live in a dry area that does not have a lot of humidity you know that becomes a problem when the weather is hot and cold. It can get kind of boring having to rub lotion on your arms and legs every time you shower.

To keep your skin moisturized and looking healthy you can always add some essential oils into your routine to beat dry skin. Cedarwood can be added to your favorite moisturizer or used by itself to promote skin clarity. Keeping yourself hydrated in the summer and winter will help keep your skin moisturized.

Anti-Aging

You may have tried different lotions and serums that promise fast results to keep you looking healthy and young. But you may find that you have gone through a lot of different products and brands and still haven’t found anything you really enjoy.

This may be your time to try essential oils for your anti-aging concerns. This is a great way to use something a little more natural for your fine lines and wrinkles. Different essential oil companies will each have their own blend for anti-aging and you can also use spikenard to promote the look of healthy skin.

Cleansing and Hygiene

If you are not comfortable putting essential oils on your face or throwing your favorite moisturizer away, you can use essential oils for body wash and even brushing your teeth. You can put your essential oils in the shower and use them when you are washing your body.

Different essential oil companies will also sell washes that already contain the essential oils in them so you do not have to worry about buying the essential oils and body wash separately. There are also resources, such as distilling doterra oils, that show you where the essential oils are produced and how they are made. This helps ensure that you are getting pure oils that are healthy for your skin and body.

Pick Me Ups

You do not have to use essential oils everyday with your beauty routine. You can use essential oils when you need a little extra self care or have had a bad day. You can use essential oils in a bubble bath to relax your muscles or feel refreshed and rejuvenated. You do not need a lot of essential oils for a bath, only a drop or two will do. You can also use essential oils for a nice facial or put them in a homemade beauty product.

All Things Facial

Yes, you can dilute different essential oils on your face to keep it feeling fresh and clean. You can use helichrysum on your face to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while also promoting a glowing face. You can also use moisturizers, melissa and sandalwood to keep your face moisturized and looking healthy. This allows you to skip the expensive facials and collection of moisturizers and lotions to rub on your face.

Essential oils are a great way to switch up your beauty routine and can help you support your beauty and health goals. If you use essential oils for your beauty routine, what are some of your favorite oils to use? Comment below to start the conversation.
