Rose oil is not only beautifully scented and powerful, it is also exceptionally effective in keeping your skin elastic. It prevents scarring and slows the development of wrinkles. Rose oil is often used as an “all-around” aromatherapy skin treatment.

Frankincense is great for fighting the effects of aging because of its anti-inflammatory and anti-infectious properties. Lavender soothes your skin as well as your mind, and reduces the effects of inflammation. It contributes to healthy anti-aging as an antifungal, antimicrobial and “anti just about everything bad” essential oil.
Anti-Aging Ointment with Frankincense
The Three Wise Men were very wise for gifting the Christ child with frankincense, as this resin’s aroma is one of empowerment and relief, and its properties span a wide range, from serving as an antifungal, antiseptic, and astringent for skin health, to fighting off respiratory infections with its expectorant and anti-inflammatory properties.
This Anti-Aging Ointment combines the skin-fortifying properties of frankincense with those of myrrh, another anti-aging essential oil as well as lemon, geranium, rosemary, carrot seed, and rosehip essential oils. These complimentary oils all have great benefits for your skin.
Combined, these oils provide a plethora of soothing and strengthening properties for skin health, loading your layers with antioxidants, which combat free radicals in the body, impacting skin health and normal bodily function. Use this oil, as directed, for younger, glowing, healthier-looking skin.

DIY Skin Toner with Myrrh
The usefulness of myrrh was well understood by the ancient Egyptians and Arabian civilizations. Even though they were unaware of the oil’s astringent, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-septic characteristics when they applied it to skin concerns such as acne or aging skin, they were aware that its effects resulted in radiant and healthier-looking skin.
This oil’s scent was also uplifting and restorative, possibly because the oil’s components stimulate support in numerous brain regions, including the pituitary, amygdala, and hypothalamus, all of which are involved in regulating emotional equilibrium. With these topical properties and this aromatic impact, a single application of myrrh essential oil can benefit both skin and emotional conditions. However, when combined with other synergistic oils such as patchouli, lavender, lemongrass, and helichrysum, you have yourself a potent skin-supporting product to hand.
This Anti-Aging Skin Toner blends all of these skin-supportive oils into a blend that firms and smooths your skin’s tone, resulting in skin that is vibrant and glowing throughout. Skin that is healthier and younger-looking can be obtained by following the steps outlined below.

I have always been fond of make-up ever since my adolescent days. I would try out different products on myself. With time I realized that while doing make-up can be fun, I also need to take care of my skin. I follow a strict skincare regime now and hope more people understand the importance of doing the same if they have access to the right products.
