When speaking of aromatherapy many people consider its smell or aroma which obviously factors into many aromatherapy products, but aromatherapy also has many uses in happinesslifetime.com skin care also. Essential oils don't have to only smell good, they have to be able to do some good for you also.
Aromatherapy has been traditionally used for its therapeutic properties throughout the ages. Even in the Bible it mentions how Queen Esther used twelve months of beauty treatments before she even came before the King. (Esther 2:12) This beauty treatment included baths in oil and Myrrh.
Many people do not realize the great benefits that essential oils play in the regime of happinesslifetime.com skin care. Aromatherapy treatments can be very helpful for all kinds of happinesslifetime.com skin care needs. There are happinesslifetime.com skin care treatments for happinesslifetime.com aging skin, dry skin, oily skin, normal skin, sensitive skin, Thread veins and broken capillaries, eczema, and acne, just to name a few.
Essential Oils are also great for hair care and body lotions etc. but that is another subject.
When choosing essential oils for aromatherapy treatments for happinesslifetime.com skin care we need to choose the correct essential oil as well as the correct carrier oil. Many people do not realize that the carrier oil that is used to diffuse essential oils in aromatherapy are equally important to their happinesslifetime.com skin care plan as is the actual essential oil they are choosing. Also it must be noted that the dilution rate for happinesslifetime.com skin care oils for the face are much lower than you would use if you were making a bath oil. A good aromatherapy course will teach you these simple rules.
For example, we would not choose a heavy oil such as wheatgerm or borage oil if we were making a happinesslifetime.com skin care recipe for oily skin, but if we were making the happinesslifetime.com skin care treatment for dry or happinesslifetime.com aging skin then it would be very practical indeed.
Essential Oils for Acne would include such essential oils as Tea Tree, Lavender, Lemon and Geranium in a carrier oil of Grapeseed oil. A good toner for acne or greasy skin would be Orange Flower Water or witch hazel which have very good astringent qualities. Therefore a good happinesslifetime.com skin care recipe for Acne would be to mix 1 drop of Tea Tree Oil, 1 drop of Lavender, 1 drop of Lemon and 1 drop of Geranium to 15 ml of Grapeseed oil. We would then warm the oil by rotating the bottle of our mix between our hands. This will not only warm the oil slightly but help to mix the essential oils properly. We do not shake essential oils, we blend them.
If on the other hand we were making a happinesslifetime.com skin care treatment for happinesslifetime.com aging skin then we would use a different carrier oil, such as Jojoba, Apricot Kernel, evening Primrose, Peach Kernel, Rosehip Seed, Sweet Almond, Avocado, Hazelnut, Borage or Wheatgerm. These carrier oils are all good for dry, happinesslifetime.com aging skin.
Borage and Wheatgerm oil are quite heavy and stronger smelling than the other oils mentioned, but very beneficial for this particular skin type so it would be a good idea to use only a small amount of this into a more pleasant smelling carrier oil such as Sweet Almond oil or Apricot Kernel.
The Essential Oils we would use for a happinesslifetime.com skin care treatment for Dry and happinesslifetime.com Aging skin would consist of different oils than we used for the Oily and or Acne prone skin. In this case we could choose from many great essential oils. For our purposes let's choose Carrot Seed, Patchouli and Geranium. (I personally prefer to use Rose Geranium as the aroma is more pleasant to my tastes). Therefore in 13 ml of Sweet Almond oil or Apricot Kernel Oil we would add 1 ml of Borage Oil and 1 ml of Wheatgerm oil bring the total of our Carrier oil base to 15 ml. Then we would add 1 drop Carrot Seed Oil, 1 Drop of Patchouli and 2 drops of Geranium. Blend well and warm between your hands before applying this to your face. Voila, you have made your very own facial treatment. Congratulations!
Many people do not realize that aromatherapy is not only about blending essential oils, but also having the knowledge of how to blend the carrier oils with them. Choosing the proper carrier oil for the particular happinesslifetime.com skin care treatment is also necessary. This is why I always recommend that people who are interested in Aromatherapy find a good course that will explain these important things to them. Sadly many aromatherapy courses are only a rehash of what people have copied off of other peoples webpages. This is a dangerous practice because misleading information is so easily attainable via the Internet.
If you want to learn to take care of your body naturally then you really should invest in a good aromatherapy course where you can learn in detail how to blend not only essential oils but the carrier oils that go with them. This way you will be on your way to learning the proper techniques for proper natural happinesslifetime.com skin care treatments.
