Cosmetic essential oils for the face. Recipes for the face with essential oils. Essential oils for oily skin

Essential oils today are very popular and are used in the cosmetology field to improve the quality of the skin, for medicinal purposes and the prevention of various diseases. In addition, they are actively used to aromatize rooms, baths, improve mental and physical health and emotional state (to invigorate, calm, relax, increase potency, etc.). There are many ways to use them, today we will discuss the most popular of them.

Properties of essential oils.
Essential oils should be understood as mixtures of volatile aromatic substances that are isolated from various parts of plants (roots, wood, resin, seeds, bark, fruits, leaves and flowers). It is important to note that the younger the plant, the more essential oils it contains. They are clear or slightly colored liquids with a characteristic aroma and concentrated taste, characterized by the ability to quickly volatilize. Today they are used in various fields of medicine and cosmetology.

The properties of essential oils are directly dependent on the raw materials from which they are obtained. Their unique healing properties and positive effects on our body have been known and used for a long time. I must say that, due to the presence of biologically active substances in the composition, almost all of them have a bactericidal, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibacterial and regenerating effect, favorably affect our nervous system, help preserve and restore the beauty of the skin and hair, and also restore the mechanism of self-regulation in the body. Some representatives of this group of oils help cleanse the body of toxins and toxins, have a therapeutic effect on the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, positively affect the psychophysical and emotional state of the body, activating blood circulation, relieving overstrain, eliminating discomfort, a sense of insecurity, increasing efficiency, etc.

Each essential oil has its own unique properties and benefits. For example, chamomile, lemon, bergamot, and thyme oils have powerful antibacterial properties. Tone up and warm sage, cinnamon, nutmeg (used to massage biologically active points, which increases blood circulation and lymphatic drainage), and, on the contrary, mint and lavender cool. Oregano, frankincense, rose, fir and sandalwood are perfect for relaxation, while lemon balm and lemongrass are great stimulants. Rose, pine, as well as geranium, chamomile, myrrh and rosewood oils show powerful regenerating properties. It is these properties that are very effective when using oils in skin care. Just a few drops in homemade masks and creams, and their effectiveness will increase several times.

Among the unique properties of essential oils, one should highlight the ability to regulate the level of hormones in the body, which are responsible for maintaining and maintaining youth. Among them, one can note the oil of myrrh, sandalwood, jasmine, ylang-ylang, rose, neroli, patchouli, etc. The high efficiency of their use is due to the phytohormones contained in the oils, which have a structure similar to human hormones.

Some representatives of essential oils have a powerful antioxidant effect (juniper, rosewood, vetiver, myrrh, rose, etc.), they help restore the oxygen balance in our body, while eliminating the toxic effects of oxygen in its excess, thereby slowing down the natural aging of cells, enhancing tissue respiration and blood supply.

The uniqueness of essential oils is manifested in the fact that when they are used in each specific case, their healing and beneficial effect is directed precisely to the area that needs it most. That is why it is so important to choose the right essential oil in a particular case. Subject to this condition, a positive effect will appear fairly quickly.

Before using this or that type of essential oil, it is important to carefully read the instructions, paying attention to contraindications and its properties. For example, if the oil is a stimulant of alertness and activity, then it is better not to use it at night, or, conversely, if it has a relaxing effect, do not use it during your hours of activity. It is also necessary to consider the effect of the aroma of the oil on your body. It happens that the skin from the use of this or that oil becomes magnificent, but at the same time its aroma worsens the condition and your well-being, or you simply cannot stand it.

Each essential oil has specific contraindications, so be sure to consider them before use. Pregnancy and epilepsy are considered absolute contraindications to their use (including for the skin), some types may be prohibited for people with hypertension, etc.

Some essential oils can be phototoxic and cause skin irritation and redness (especially citrus oils) when exposed to sunlight. That is why it is better to use such oils two hours before going out into the open sun, before tanning in a solarium and in the open sun.

The use of essential oils in cosmetology.
It is important to note that essential oils for the skin, as a rule, are prohibited for use in undiluted or pure form (with the exception of some representatives that are applied directly to problem areas), as they provoke severe skin irritation. Therefore, before use, they must be diluted in vegetable (base) oils. Basically, they enrich self-prepared creams and masks for the skin of the body and face, as well as hair. But adding them to store-bought cosmetics is not advisable, because, according to some experts, due to the ability to penetrate deep into skin tissues, the oil can “deliver” all the harmful substances (chemistry) that are present in the finished product.

I note that after using essential oils on the skin, slight redness may occur, which quickly disappear. If redness is accompanied by severe itching, discomfort and discomfort, then these types of oils are not suitable for you. Or such a reaction can be caused by the abuse of essential oils (overdose).

In skin care, essential oils have a wide spectrum of action. They are used for any type of skin in order to cleanse, rejuvenate, increase skin firmness and elasticity, to treat irritation, inflammation, redness, acne, post-acne, etc.

For example, in the care of oily and problem skin, oils of rosemary, camphor, grapefruit, bergamot, lemon balm, lemon, orange, tea tree, fir, clove, patchouli are recommended; for dry and sensitive skin - myrrh, blue chamomile, rose, jasmine, patchouli, sandalwood, orange; for any skin type - lemon, ylang-ylang, neroli, geranium, jasmine; for withering, aging, haggard, flabby and sluggish skin - orange, rose, patchouli, neroli, anise.

Myrtle, lemon, marjoram, lemon balm, ylang-ylang, rosemary, grapefruit are ideal for cleansing the skin and narrowing the pores. To relieve irritation, lavender, blue chamomile, jasmine, patchouli, geranium are excellent. If you want to saturate the skin with vitamins and give it a tone, effectively use the oil of verbena, orange, spruce, rosewood.

Essential oils such as: neroli, verbena, sandalwood, bigardia, ylang-ylang, orange, jasmine, incense, rose have a rejuvenating effect. Myrrh, sandalwood, patchouli, rose, fennel, neroli have a tightening effect (lifting).

To restore or regenerate the skin, it is effective to use geranium, ylang-ylang, rose, lavender, myrrh, chamomile, clove, jasmine oils.

Limetta, rose, mint, neroli, verbena oil will help restore the skin to a healthy and fresh complexion, give a natural glow.

You can eliminate swelling with the help of lemon oil, limette, myrrh, juniper, chamomile, pine, and cajuput, geranium, orange, lemon, juniper will help relieve inflammation.

The bathroom, namely the door, must be tightly closed so that the aroma is preserved and has the desired effect. Such baths not only improve well-being, but also transform the skin.

They are natural, effective and safe for health, they do not contain any harmful chemicals. You can use them absolutely at any age and in completely different ways, both in pure form and as part of various cosmetic products.

The best oils for skin rejuvenation

With age, the skin of the face loses its ability to regenerate, sags, and the first signs of its withering appear in the form of mimic wrinkles. For more than one millennium, women have been using all kinds of natural oils to prevent such changes, the most ancient civilizations knew a lot about this. Oil extracts have a beneficial effect on the epidermis, nourish and moisturize the dermis, increase its firmness and elasticity, thereby slowing down aging for at least 10 years. We present to your attention the TOP 20 best oils for facial skin rejuvenation.

To be in the TOP of this product was allowed by its wide possibilities in restoring the process of cell regeneration, on which the number of wrinkles on the face directly depends. It fills tissues with moisture, nourishes them from the inside with vitamin A, which is important for the dermis, restores its pH balance and prevents ultraviolet radiation from aggravating the situation.

Almond oil helps to eliminate traces of aging due to the presence of the following substances in the composition:

  • Vitamin F. This is a complex of unsaturated fatty acids necessary for the construction of cell membranes and normal blood circulation in tissues. Without this, wrinkles will definitely not be able to smooth out at least somehow.
  • beta carotene. It accelerates tissue regeneration and protects against the harmful effects of UV rays, which leads to the so-called photoaging.
  • Alpha tocopherol. Vitamin E traditionally functions as a moisturizer. With its help, the skin receives the right amount of moisture needed to smooth mimic and age wrinkles.
  • B vitamins. Each of them has a positive effect on metabolic processes, increases the resistance of tissues to wind, cold, and the sun. Their presence in the composition allows you to eliminate the lack of moisture in the skin, make it radiant and young.

Important! Almond oil has a strong smell, so allergy sufferers should avoid using it.

Grape seed oil

It is obtained by cold or hot pressing of dried grape seeds, mainly white varieties. The most useful is that which has not been subjected to heat treatment. Its color is light yellow, the consistency is greasy, and there is practically no smell.

The benefit of this oil for rejuvenation lies in the ability to moisturize the skin from the inside, accelerate the production of collagen and elastin, thereby making the dermis more elastic. All this is provided by vitamin E, numerous organic acids, flavonoids and vegetable lecithin, which are part of the product.

Essential oil of rosemary


This option is suitable mainly for owners of oily and problem skin. The tool stimulates cell regeneration, the production of collagen and elastin, which form the framework of the dermis. In addition, it takes care of its cleansing, elimination of black spots, inflammation and acne, toning.

It is also worth singing praises to him because it contains special peptides that resemble collagen. The tissues saturated with them acquire elasticity and say goodbye to fine wrinkles.


This is the most affordable product that is sold not only in cosmetic stores, but also in the market or in a pharmacy. For facial care, a raw product is required that has not been heated during the production process.

This is exactly what lavender essential oil helps to do, but it is not recommended to use it if its integrity and irritation are violated.

lavender oil

Jasmine oil

It is one of the most expensive and hard-to-get, because it is made for a long time and is difficult. The initial product is fresh leaves of Egyptian jasmine. It has a pleasant, sweet aroma, the texture here is also very delicate.

This is the best choice for people with dry and normal skin types. The main action of the product is aimed at smoothing superficial wrinkles. Along with this, there is an improvement in complexion, its cleansing, normalization of the sebaceous glands, narrowing of pores.

And here natural cosmetic oils for the face from wrinkles are ready to come to the rescue.

About whether it is possible to choose the right natural remedy for skin moisturizing at home in a pharmacy, we will consider in this article.

Factory anti-wrinkle cream: pros and cons

Cream is the most common cosmetic form that girls use for wrinkles, including as a base for make-up. Today, literally every manufacturer offers a choice of several anti-aging series, some of which belong to pharmacy products. In the fight against the signs of aging, girls usually spare no expense, and marketers understand this. So products with extracts of gold, pearls, stem cells appear on the shelves ... But what are the advantages and disadvantages of such products?

  1. Convenient to use. Buying an anti-aging cream, you take off the extra hassle. Nothing needs to be mixed, combined, enriched and then washed off. Opened the tube, and hold on to wrinkles.
  2. It costs expensive. A truly effective, good tool will cost a pretty penny. At the same time, such products are usually packaged in small containers, so you will need to renew the tube about once a month.
  3. Addictive. According to reviews, products for aging skin are quickly addictive, so after 3-5 months you will need to take a break and pick up a new anti-aging series.
  4. Works on the surface. The cream does not solve the stated problems at a deep level, but only masks the problems. Long-term use of such cosmetics will hide small folds, but you won’t be able to get rid of deep grooves.
  5. Contains chemical additives. When cosmetics are produced on an industrial scale, synthetic components are simply indispensable. They are needed for the "correct" color, smell, consistency, and also to ensure a long shelf life.

Store cream does not give the skin immunity. The tool "works" exactly as long as you do not stop using it. The cream does not prevent the appearance of new grooves and does not "charge" the skin with strength and anti-aging potential.

Natural oils for wrinkles: pros and cons

Natural oil instead of face cream is most often used by supporters of home cosmetics and those girls who could not find a suitable anti-aging product in the store. Herbal "elixirs" are much cheaper than branded products and are often suitable for solving incidental problems. For example, in addition to eliminating wrinkles, they help moisturize or get rid of acne, heal wounds on the hands and lips, and remove circles around the eyes. What are the pros and cons of natural oils worth highlighting?

  • Requires additional time. Not all oils can be used as an independent remedy, for example, instead of a cream. Due to their heavy consistency, many of them can only be applied in combination with other components. In such cases, masks and applications are made. Time is required for the preparation of the mixture and for the adoption of the procedure itself. Plus, you often need to rinse off the product after use as it may not be fully absorbed. Also, most home remedies are not stored, so every time you have to "nail" a fresh mask.
  • They have limitations in use. Although many types of plant "elixirs" have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects, women with oily and problematic skin are advised not to abuse oil treatments. In this case, a special approach is needed and a combination with other components is almost always required. In addition, not all types of oils are suitable for daily use.
  • Affordable and multifunctional. Unlike anti-aging industrial products, vegetable oils and esters are cheaper. Plus, they last longer. Plus, the contents of the same bottle can be used for the face, hair, and nails.
  • They are natural and hypoallergenic. There are no synthetic components in oils. Also, almost all of them are safe to use and can cause allergies only if there is an individual intolerance to the product. It is recommended to carry out an allergy test before use: smear a little cream on the wrist and wait a day.
  • Solving age-related problems at a deep level. The composition of oils is similar to human fat secretions. This allows you to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin, saturate the cells, stimulate renewal.
  • They have a long lasting effect. Natural oils saturate the skin with health in reserve. Therefore, even with a break in oil care, the anti-aging effect can be maintained: the spontaneous appearance of new grooves will be stopped for a while.

Vegetable oils will not be able to completely rid you of facial wrinkles. Perhaps, only “rejuvenating” injections and operations by a plastic surgeon have such an effect. But these natural products are able to “erase” small depressions and improve the condition of “stubborn” grooves. Moreover, a noticeable result occurs after a maximum of a month of regular procedures. An important point is the effective and long-term prevention of the formation of new folds.

It is impossible to unequivocally determine the best anti-wrinkle face oil, in this regard, it is not possible to rank such oils in the classical sense. An individual approach is important here. Someone praises the castor "elixir". It does not suit other girls, and they choose frankincense oil.

But based on the experience of supporters of home cosmetology, you can make a “list-advice” of which oils are best to use for wrinkles for the face. By the way, it is the products from our list that are often included in store-bought anti-aging cosmetics, which the manufacturer proudly says in its advertising.
