The Best Essential Oils for your Skin by CupiEssential
You might notice a few oils that land on more than one list. Essential oils are pretty awesome! Their skin-supporting properties can sometimes be used to help different skin types. Lavender is probably one of the most versatile! It can be used for pretty much any skin type.
So don’t worry too much about picking the “wrong” oil. Essential oils have a wide range of benefits, so you can’t really go wrong.
- For Oily Skin:
These oils have properties that tend to regulate and normalize oil production:
- For Breakouts and Blemishes:
These essential oils can be added to your moisturizer to calm and prevent breakouts, and can also be applied neat (undiluted) as a spot treatment:
- Melaleuca Alternifolia (tea tree)
- Peppermint
- Vitex
- Lavender
- Patchouli
- For Dry, Chapped Skin:
If your skin tends to be dry and chapped, a deeply moisturizing oil like shea butter or cocoa butter is a good base. Argan oil and rose hip oil are also good facial oils for deep moisture.
Here are the essential oils that are best for dry skin types:
- Cedarwood
- Basil
- Myrrh
- Peppermint
- Lavender
- Roman or German Chamomile
- For Aging Skin:
Essential Oils & Skin Types like Argan oil and rose hip oil are some of the best oils for aging skin that tends to be prone to wrinkles and sagging. Use them as a carrier oil and then add these essential oils to nourish aging skin:
- Orange
- Ylang-ylang
- Patchouli
- Pine
- Sandalwood
- Lavender
- Frankincense
- Basil
- Palmarosa
- Helichrysum
- For Combination Skin:
These are some of the best essential oils & skin types by that tends to be both dry and oily (sounds impossible, but I’ve been there!):
- Patchouli
- Lavender
- Bergamot
- Orange
For this I would recommend a base of jojoba oil, since it is nourishing for dry skin but still tends to be friendly to oily skin.
- For Red Marks and Dark Spots or Acne Scars:
Some of the best essential oils for skin with red marks or dark spots are:
- Lavender
- Lemon
- Frankincense
- Vitamin E Oil
I use these in my serum recipe for toning and brightening the skin. Simply use 3-5 drops each per tablespoon of carrier oil, and you have the perfect skin-toning moisturizer if you tend to need help with uneven skin tone. Use twice a day or as needed.
Vitamin E Oil for Acne Scars
Vitamin E oil is a highly debated topic in the world of health and medicine. I want you to review this information with caution and always consult your physician before using any form of supplementation.
