Everyone knows about the use of essential oils and their plastic oil bottles in aromatherapy, room diffusers, and scented fragrances, but it is much rarer to hear about their use in cosmetic products and their cosmetic packaging. Truth be told, thanks to their preservative, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral properties, essential oils are powerful allies for natural cosmetic lines and as well as promoting cell renewal, some of them are also able to stimulate metabolic processes.
If we want to use essential oils in cosmetics, we must always bear in mind that their concentration in a cream should never exceed 3%, and it is even better if it is between 1 and 2%. Another important consideration concerns the carrier used for essential oils: the best are vegetable oils, primarily jojoba oil, which does not go rancid and do not alter the fragrance of the final product.
In this blog, we've taken a look at three of the most popular essential oils and better understand their properties:
Ylang Ylang is a plant from Asia which has relaxing properties and helps to combat anxiety and stress. Used in relaxing body creams, this essential oil not only helps you sleep better but also restores the mental and physical balance that daily stress unbalances.
Damask rose has many functions, including energizing and soothing. Thanks to its astringent, antibacterial, and purifying properties, the rose reduces excess sebum and keeps acne, inflammation, and skin redness at bay. Finally, rose contains vitamins A, B, C, and vitamin E, which have an antioxidant and toning effect and delay the appearance of wrinkles.
In cosmetics, rosemary essential oil is used in skincare and cleansing products and even in the formulation of shampoos against dandruff and hair loss. It is also very well used in the preparation of toothpaste and natural deodorants due to its antiseptic action.
