Hopefully, this DIY Essential Oil Blend for Dry Skin will help your skin regulate its sebum production and become healthy & moisturized!
What is Dry Skin?
Dry skin comes in many forms. There’s dry itchy skin, dry cracked skin, dry flaky skin and more! However, the main feature of all dry skin types is little to no moisture/sebum on the skin. Dry skin can feel tight, painful, itchy, inflamed and scaly. Some of the causes of dry skin include:
- Dehydration
- Harsh face washes or cleansers containing SLS
- Certain beauty products that are alcohol-based
- Not eating enough healthy fats in your diet
- Cold weather
- Strong winds
- Etc
How Can Essential Oils Help Dry Skin?
Essential oils are powerful potions when it comes to healing skin care ailments. Oils such as lavender, jasmine, sandalwood, geranium and rose are moisturizing in nature.
Jasmine oil is one of the best moisturizing oils in my opinion – I tested it out on my hands! The result was moisturized, baby soft and silky hands!
Essential oils also have soothing properties that help calm down irritated dry skin. Anti-inflammatory properties in essential oils are good for reducing redness and inflammation in dry skin.
