My friend Angie is searching for essential oils or blends to help treat her teenage daughter's acne. While reviewing literature for the most commonly recommended essential oils, I came across this formula from
Birch Hill Happenings, an aromatherapy company in Minnesota. Lavendar, the No. 1 recommended essential oil for many, many conditions, appears in nearly every blend for acne. Please remember to test a dab of any essential oil or blend on the hand before applying elsewhere, and of course, remember that "This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended
to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease."
From Birch Hill Happenings:
To 4 ml of
Jojoba oil (4 ml. = 0.81 US teaspoons)
Add:
Lavender 8 drops,
Rosewood 8 drops,
Tea tree 8 drops,
Chamomile 4 drops,
Geranium 4 drops,
Helichrysum 4 drops and
Lemon 4 drops.
"Blend well and apply a finger tip of this oil to the blemishes you wish
to treat. Can be applied several times a day.
"SPECIAL NOTE: Many people afflicted with
Rosacea often time find that the same home remedy, home treatment using
essential oils for treatment of acne works great for the natural treatments of
rosacea. You may want to give this natural home remedy a try to treat your
rosacea, too."
