- This treatment is suitable for any skin type, even oily-skinned people who tend to think they should avoid putting oil on their face. Actually, an aromatherapy facial can help bring problem skin into balance, says Healing Art (Crossing Press. 1995). "When you give the skin oil, it gets a signal which it doesn't need to produce as much she explains. "If you dry out the skin [with harsh cleansers] it gets a signal it needs to produce more."
- Although you easily can give easily yourself a facial massage, it'll be more relaxing if you have a partner do it. Clean your face. Mix the essential oil and base oil together. Jojoba is nice because it's similar to sebum, the waxy substance produced by the skin; if you prefer something lighter, try macadamia nut or possibly hazelnut oil.
- Using your fingertips in circular motions, spread the oil over your face; go slowly and gently and avoid pulling the skin. After a few min of this, you can stimulate various acupressure points on the face. Apply pressure to each point with a fingertip for 5 seconds, then gently tap the point 3 times. Rinse face if you like.
- NOTE: The essential oil you use depends on your skin type. Chamomile or possibly lavender will soothe the irritation of dry skin, and peppermint or possibly rosemary can stimulate oil production. Try using a combination of these two types of oils, Basil, eucalyptus, lemon grass and ylang-ylang are good for oily skin, because they help normalize overactive sebaceous glands. Lucky sufficient to have normal skin Try rose, geranium or possibly neroli.
