They don’t mention your age or any specific skin problems, so I’ll outline a few options you might consider depending on what you’re looking to achieve with the facial oil recipe. First, make sure you have the right base oil for your needs.
Jojoba oil is one of the best choices as it is very stable and beneficial for all skin types – dry, oily, or sensitive. Avocado oil is rich in nutrients and deeply moisturizing and soothing – ideal for dry skin, climate-damaged skin and mature skin.
Macadamia oil is a very nourishing oil for mature skin and is very compatible with the sebum that we naturally produce. Rose hip oil is good for tissue regeneration, whether it’s fine lines and wrinkles or burns and scars.
For normal skin types, the beneficial essential oils include neroli (orange blossom), rose, palmarosa, sandalwood, ylang ylang, lavender, rose geranium and German chamomile. For oily skin, try bergamot, cedarwood, clary sage, lemon, palmarosa, juniper, and tea tree.
Dry skin types should choose oils such as German and Roman chamomile, rose geranium, jasmine, neroli, rose, palmarosa, and rosewood. To combat redness, try German chamomile, lavender, neroli, rose, and sandalwood.
If you are making an anti-aging night oil, there is no avoiding carrot seed oil, German or Roman chamomile, frankincense, Ewig, rose, palmarosa, sandalwood and myrrh. If your skin is particularly sensitive, stick with chamomile, rose, and sandalwood and only use 0.1-0.5% essential oil in your supplement. For other skin types, it is usually safe to add essential oils at a concentration of 0.5-1%.
Retirement can be difficult enough as it is, especially when your career is an integral part of your identity. Mastering this transition while feeling like you haven’t achieved everything you hoped for is certainly an additional challenge for this phase of life.
