DIY Natural Acne Scar Treatment Serum
Introduction
I
want to share with you a technique for creating a simple acne scar treatment. I
have recommended this treatment to a number of my friends who have experienced
acne in their lifetimes and are now having to deal with the acne scars. I have
experimented with a number of different oils and I have found these oils to be
of particular benefit
Ingredients for serum
Oils and one ounce glass dropper bottle. You can buy a glass dropper
bottle from any health food store
Oil ingredients
For this recipe I chose two carrier oils and three essential oils. One of the
carrier oils I am using is grapeseed oil this has a very light weight texture
and absorbs really quickly and easily, it does not leave you greasy at all.
Another carrier oil is rosehip oil. This is specifically known for skin cell
regeneration so it is excellent for scarring, acne scarring, wrinkles. It
is also good if you have dry skin. It is basically good for any skin type. If
you have oily skin rosehip oil will balance your skin.
Now for the essential oils, all the three essential oils I have chosen are
anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and antifungal. So the essential oils are
frankincense, lavender, and rosewood.
-
Frankincense
is antiseptic oil. It has astringent qualities which tones and lifts the
skin. Being cicatrisant makes frankincense oil very good for fading scars of
stretch marks and surgery marks due to pregnancy and delivery.
- Lavender oil is very good for healing wounds, burns, cuts and
even sunburns. It’s antiseptic and antifungal. As like some other essential
oils, pregnant and breastfeeding woman should avoid lavender oil.
- Rosewood oil is rejuvenating oil as it keeps the skin young and
healthy. It also has antibacterial properties.
Recipe
So let’s start with mixing our oils. So for our one ounce glass bottle we will
take half of each carrier oil; so 15 ml grapeseed oil and 15 ml of rosehip oil.
This will make one ounce mixture of carrier oils. Now to do this mixture you
will add four drops of frankincense, four drops of lavender and four drops of
rosewood oil. You do not need more than 4 drops of essential oils as they are
extremely potent, extremely concentrated plant oils. Close your glass dropper
bottle and mix all the oils by shaking the bottle.
Storage
Keep your acne serum in the refrigerator as rosehip oil should be kept in cold
conditions.
Direction
Apply this oil on your clean facial skin at night before going to bed. Always do
the patch test of the blend on your wrist 24 hour before applying on your face.
