Using Essential Oils on Acne: Tea Tree Oil and Emu Oil |
|
|
Essential oils is the name given to more than 90 pure extracts
from various plants. Despite the nomer 'oil,' essential oils are
not, in fact petroleum products. They can be rubbed on the skin
or used in aromatherapy. High quality essential oils are
completely derived naturally and won't clog pores. Because of
their cleanliness, many essential oils can be used to help
diminish acne.
Two of these oils are tea tree oil and emu oil. Emu oil,
however, is not technically an essential oil, as it is derived
from an animal. The emu is a mainly flightless bird originating
mainly in Australia. The indigenous people of Australia, the
Aborigines, use emu |

oil for its healing and restorative effects,
particularly with regard to joint pain. Today, however, emu oil
is used for a variety of purposes, one of those is to lessen the
problem of acne.
Because emu oil is non-greasy and won't clog pores, it makes a
good skin moisturizer and softener. Lotion, no matter how
'clean' it is can still clog pores. Emu oil does the same job,
but without the gunk that can cause acne.
Tea tree oil is another good choice for use on acne. This
essential oil helps heal scars and won't clog pores. Like other
essential oils, tea tree oil can also be used for aromatherapy,
soothing, even as it reduces acne. |
