These oils are extracted by distilling different parts of plants, such as leaves or flowers, or squeezing their peel, in the case of citrus fruits. They are ideal for making homemade creams, both facial and body. With essential oils you can treat the signs of aging, regenerate the skin and purify it. Just choose the right oils and mix them with your base cream or emulsion.

For facial treatments it is recommended to add to the cream a very small amount of essential oils, from 1 to 3 drops. To make body creams you can include a somewhat larger amount, although it should not exceed 1% of the total weight of the cream. It is important to keep in mind that you should not apply an essential oil directly to the skin.
