Turmeric
A natural antibacterial and antiseptic agent that reduces the appearance of acne scars, reduces wrinkles, corrects skin that is oily, treats pigmentation and sun damaged skin all while creating that sunny summer glow that makes you look refreshed and makes you feel alive. The medicinal properties of turmeric oil work magically as it reduces acne, dries out pimples and prevents future breakouts.
Coconut Oil
A product that is becoming popular outside the kitchen contributes to softening and nourishing the skin and minimizes the effect of premature aging (adding a few lemon drops to it will help lighten dark spots.) Working as a natural makeup remover, deep cleanser, and moisturizer to the skin, coconut oil also works as a sun protector as well as an antibacterial shield that protects the fragile skin from potential pathogens and tackles and reduces the risks of infections from bacteria that worsens acne.
Aloe Vera
Contains anti-aging properties and keeps the skin silky, supple and soft. The natural plant contains enzymes that repair dead skin cells as well as a couple of hormones known as Gibberellins and Auxin that heal and reduce inflammation of the skin. It is used to heal chronic skin problems such an eczema and acne effectively. Adding aloe vera will help activate the essential oils as it hydrates, heals and moisturizes.
Sweet Almond Oil
Potent in minimizing loose, saggy skin as it repairs and rejuvenates those new skin cells, leaving it extremely soft and agile. It naturally nourishes the skin while plumping it and retaining a healthy glow.
Essential Oils
Known to tighten skin, heal problematic conditions and improve skin cells, which in effect, assist in repairing the skin naturally. Lavender, specifically, contains calming benefits to the skin. When mixed with coconut oil or aloe vera, it immensely benefits the skin with its rich antioxidants and antimicrobial properties.
Vitamin E
Lastly, adding a few drops of vitamin E oil will increase the shelf life and assist in diminishing dark spots on your skin.
