Herb Essential Oil Distiller

Carrot seed essential oil

Carrot seed essential oil has a rejuvenating effect on the skin. It not only works to help smooth skin, but assists with cell regeneration. For this reason, it can help to fade scars and improve the tone of aging skin.

Frankincense Essential Oil

Frankincense essential oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits to the skin, making it ideal for acne-prone skin. It is also a natural toner, decreasing the appearance of pores and evening skin-tone. It is cytophylactic, which means that it helps protect existing cells and encourage new cell growth. For this reason, it helps reduce wrinkles, tighten skin, and reduce the appearance of scars. It also helps soothe chapped, dry skin.

Geranium Essential Oil

Geranium essential oil helps regulate oil production and reduces acne breakouts. It also helps improve skin elasticity and tighten skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles. It also promotes blood circulation to the areas where it is applied, helping to heal bruises, broken capillaries, burns, cuts, dermatitis, eczema, ringworm, and other skin conditions. This baby does it all!

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender essential oil is one I suggest no one goes without — it smells amazing, helps you relax and your body adapt to stress, and has great benefits for the skin. It helps regenerate skin cells so is great for mature skin, sun spots, and scarring. Another great oil for all skin types and needs.

Myrrh Essential Oil

Myrrh essential oil greatly benefits aging skin. It has strong anti-inflammatory properties that help improve skin tone, firmness, and skin elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Myrrh can also help heal sun damage, chapped skin, rashes, and eczema.

Neroli Essential Oil

Neroli essential oil is great for oily, sensitive, and mature skin. It helps to smooth fine lines and tone sagging skin. This rejuvenating oil contains a natural chemical called citral, which helps regenerate cells. For this reason, it is said to be very good at preventing and healing stretch marks, as well. Its antiseptic properties also balance oil production and shrink the appearance of pores without drying skin.

Patchouli Essential Oil

Patchouli essential oil is particularly great for aging skin. It promotes new cell growth and smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Because it also has antiseptic, antifungal, and antibacterial properties, it can also benefit skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and acne.

Rose Essential Oil

Rose essential oil is especially great for dry or aging skin. Researchers have found that it contains several therapeutic compounds known to promote healing, especially antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory compounds. As a result, rose essential oil helps refine skin texture and tone, and can be helpful with managing skin conditions such as psoriasis and dermatitis. Interestingly, one study even found that inhaling rose essential oil inhibits water loss in the skin and lowers the concentration of the stress hormone cortisol in the body (stress has a profound impact on your skin!).

Tea Tree Essential Oil

Tea tree essential oil is one of the more well-known essential oils for acne-prone skin. Its antibacterial properties help ward off acne-causing bacteria. It also helps to regulate oil production, which can decrease the severity and incidence of breakouts.

Ylang Ylang Essential Oil

Ylang ylang essential oil is one of my favorite essential oils because of its rich, floral fragrance. It is helps to control oil production and minimize breakouts. It also helps regenerate skin cells, smoothing fine lines and improving skin elasticity. Another great essential oil for every skin type.

Juniper essential oil

Juniper essential oil is extracted from juniper berries. It possesses a warm woody smell that makes your hair smell amazing. Juniper essential oil has been found to be beneficial for hair loss and skin problems. It  moisturizes hair and promotes a healthy scalp. To help prevent hair loss, just mix 3-5 drops with a all natural conditioner. Leave on for 3-5 minutes then rinse as normal. Use regularly.

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender essential oil aids  in treating hair loss.  In Scotland, a study found that 40% of alopecia test subjects reported an increase in hair growth after regularly massaging lavender essential oil onto their scalp.

Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary essential oil not only helps combat dandruff, but also aids in hair growth.  Rosemary oil stimulates cell division and dilates blood vessels which encourages hair growth. Rosemary oil can be rubbed into the scalp to stimulate growth or you can add a few drops to your conditioner.

Peppermint Essential  Oil

Peppermint essential oil acts like an astringent and aids in removing excess sebum from the scalp. For hair growth, mix peppermint oil with a carrier oil and apply directly to the scalp.

Basil Essential Oil

Basil essential oil possesses stimulant properties and can be applied topically to increase blood flow. The increased blood flow helps hair grow.  Basil oil can be mixed with other essential oils, such as lavender or rosemary to stimulate new hair growth.
