Essential Oils

[baby11]

Are they good for the skin?

I have heard Rose Absolute and Neroli Essential Oils mix a few drops into your facial moisturiser is a good anti-ageing treatment, is this true?

Where can I get theses oils from?

Are they good for oily/combination Skin?

At the moment I am using Lotus Facial Oil from Clarins at night in my moisturiser but would like to differ between that and anti-ageing oil at night.

What other essential oils are good? Face and body?

Thanks

Hi

I heard and used Frankinsence (sp) for around the eyes it's supposed to be very good for lines not that i noticed, lol.
I also have almond oil and 'another', I cant remember where i heard about those, apparently they are very good for dryness and combination skin.
The 'another' I have here but the label fell of, so i have no idea what it was, sorry, lol.
Gosh i'm not to helpfull really, lol

Without knowledge of pure essential oils it is best to stick to ones that have been preblended in a carrier oil.
Eve taylor does some very good pre blended facial oils.
Some essential oils can cause pigmentation in sunlight so be very careful about using them on your face.
