You can reduce the burden by simplifying your personal care routine to include basics such as natural carrier oils and pure essential oils.

Pure, high-quality essential oils can be intensely nourishing and balancing for the skin. So, whether you’re dealing with oily skin, wrinkles, or dry patches, essential oils are here to help. Located below are a few essential oils from our Top 18 Essential Oil Set that packs tons of benefits for your skincare regime. Just make sure to dilute with a carrier oil (like Arganor JojobaOil) before applying!

Remember beauties, everyone's skin reacts differently to different products. We suggest doing a patch test first. Dilute the essential oil with a carrier oil, and place a small amount on the inside of your elbow or wrist. Wait 48 to 72 hours. If you do not notice an allergic reaction, redness, swelling, itching, or burning on that spot, it is okay for you to use.
