Skin Types

1. Oily skin is the result of excessive production of sebum. It leads to blemishes, blackheads, and acne. You can use thyme, lemon grass, and peppermint for blackheads. Tea tree, lavender, rose, basil, and cedar wood are very useful for acne. You can treat pimples with tea tree, manuka, chamomile, rosemary, and thyme.

2. Dry skin is due to the skin’s inability to produce sebum for lubrication. It makes the skin appear coarse, dull, wrinkled, and flaky. Cracked skin can be treated with patchouli, sandalwood, vetivier, and lavender. Cedar wood, clary, jasmine, geranium, lavender, rose, and orange are best suited for dry skin. Essential oils and skin care recipes will help you address this problem.

3. The normal skin type tends to be neither too oily nor too dry. To rejuvenate normal skin, you can use jasmine, rose wood, cedar wood, and ylang ylang.

4. Many people have combination skin. They have a T–zone, which is oily around the nose, chin, and forehead and the rest of the face is dry.
