Beauty Serum, aka liquid gold

A wonderful image consultant gave me the best advice for skincare years ago ... Moisturize your face!  Oily skin is a sign that your skin is out of balance, so don't skip the moisturer, use the right kind.

I've found the absolutely best and it's affordable because you make it yourself. 

What you need:

- glass dropper bottle or roller bottle

- Yong Living essential oils

- carrier oil (Jajoba is a popular carrier for the face.)

I personally love Chamomile (calming), Cedarwood (regulate), Lavender (cleanse and support), Neroli (tone), Frankinscence (firm, soothe, and support), and Sandalwood (balance).

There is some amazing research available  on essential oils and skincare!

You can start small, with just a little carrier and 5 drops of an essential oil. You can add to it every couple of days. 

I would highly recommend using a small amount every morning and night. This will help to keep your skin nourished and your makeup will go on smoother with a smoother canvas. 

An Oily Routine

Buying essential oils and knowing what to do with them are two different things.

Step one, purchase Young Living essential oils. (Again, the kit gets you the wholesale discount!)  Step two, know what to do with them. There are a lot of books, phone apps and websites that are independent (so don't profit off the sale of oils) and can get into great detail on what, how, when, etc.  I have several books from Life Science Publishing and Abundant Health.

Want to know what an oily routine looks like?  (These are just the oils and products that have replaced my old routine.  In the next post, I'll talk about my energy and emotions, by popular demand.)

AM routine:

- Thieves AromabrightToothpaste 

- Thieves Mouthwash 

- En-R-Gee 1-2 drops applied

- Joy blend, 1 drop over the heart

- Brain Power, 1 drop on the back of my neck

- Sniffle ease trio (lavender, peppermint, and lemon diluted in a roller, with Copaiba to make it stronger for myself), applied over my sinuses and under my nose

- underarm spray

Daily diffusing based on my family's needs. Thieves is a popular choice because it's immune boosting properties. 

PM routine:

- blemish buster roller (Tea Tree, lemon, Purificiation, Lavender, etc)

- face serum (many, many oils lol. Frankincense, Elemi, Lavender, etc.)

- shampoo includes a drop of lavender and a drop of cedarwood per ounce 

I recently started using the Tranquil roll-on shortly before bedtime to help me settle down. I always diffuse at night, usually Peace and Calming.
