I'd recently given my mother some of Narayan's No Tox Botox to try (read review), but as she's not a superfan of the smell of clove (I love it, especially around the colder weather months, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside) she asked me to list some other essential oils she can check out that help with skin firming/anti-aging. Here's the list I gave her:
Anti-aging essential oils
- Geranium - skin regenerative and boosts circulation
- Frankincense - skin regenerative, tightening and healing
- Myrrh - toning/firming
- Cypress - firms and boosts circulation
- Neroli - improves elasticity, stimulates new cell growth
- Fennel - stimulates skin and helps firm; contains vitamin C
You'll want to pair the above with your favorite carrier oil (and the combination is best applied to slightly damp skin for better absorption). Carrot seed oil, avocado and argan are particularly good for aging skin. If you want to apply "neat" please make sure to patch test on a place like your inner arm before applying to your face. Have fun mixing and matching, and if you're creating your own blends please let me know how it turns out!
