Today's blog is about my daily skincare regimen. Ive been asked about 5 times this week about my skin so I thought I might just put it another Natural Skincare Chick blog post.

If you have followed me in the past you know that I am BIG on Exfoliating. So I wont go into a long explanation about the benefits of exfoliating. However Moisturizing is KEY to your natural Skincare success.

2.     Aloe Vera Gel
3.     Frankincense Essential Oil

Aloe Vera Gel
The Aloe Vera contains two hormones: Auxin and Gibberellins. These two hormones provide wound healing and anti-inflammatory properties that reduce skin inflammation. ... Additionally, in Ayurvedic medicine, Aloe is used to effectively heal chronic skin problems, such as psoriasis, acne and eczema.


Frankincense Essential Oils

Frankincense essential oil is a powerful astringent, meaning it helps protect skin cells. ... Frankincense has the ability to strengthen skin and improve its tone, elasticity, defense mechanisms against bacteria or blemishes, and appearance as someone ages.

The astringent properties of Frankincense make it an excellent choice for topical uses. Anti-aging products use the oil for the skin benefits. It also may help speed healing of minor wounds and insect bites. I personally use it in homemade beauty products for its scent and for reducing scars or tightening skin.

Frankincense essential oil is obtained from the dried and distilled resin of the Frankincense tree, which is native to specific regions of Africa and the Middle East.

Frankincense oil gets its name from the term “franc encens,” which means “high-quality incense” in French. Considered to be a “pure incense,” it was the most desirable of all the other types of incense.

Its potent aroma can be described as woody, earthy, and spicy with a fruity nuance. Used in aromatherapy, its sedative and comforting fragrance is believed to strengthen and invigorate the respiratory system.

Frankincense essential oil contains properties that reduce feelings of anxiety, stimulate the immune system, and diminish signs of aging, among other demonstrated activities. It can be used cosmetically, medicinally, and for eliminating surface area blemishes or wrinkles.

Tips For Mixing Frankincense Oil Into Your Skin Care Products:

Use ~6 drops per ounce for face products.Use ~12 drops per ounce for body lotions.Use ~20 drops per ounce for shampoos, hair masks and products you rinse off.Always do a patch test first to check for skin sensitivity.For liquids, shake well before use.

The Candle Doctor stocks and distributes 100% Organic Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils. To purchase a 15ml bottle of Frankincense Purchase Below.

Lavender Essential Oils

Lavender has a distinct, relaxing aroma. It is often used in aromatherapy and commercial bath products. There is a growing body of research looking at the potential health benefits of this popular plant.
In a 2013 study, a research team studied the antioxidant effects of lavender. Their findings suggested that lavender oil helps protect against oxidative stress in the brain.
These same effects may help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines when applied to the skin. However, more studies need to be conducted with humans to prove lavender oil's effectiveness.
Some people are allergic to lavender. It is advised to do a patch test before applying any new substance to the skin.
