During the monsoon season, factors like sun, excessive humidity, pollution, and heat can cause skin irritation and many other problems. Furthermore, the oiliness of the skin increases during this season, which clogs pores and increases the risk of acne and pimples. Therefore, special care is needed to keep the skin healthy, glowing, and fresh. Essential oils play an important role in the monsoon skin care routine. Here, we are telling you about two special essential oils that can help you get rid of acne and oily skin and improve your complexion. This information has been given by Arpit Gupta, Founder and Managing Director of AG Organica.
1. Tea Tree Oil
Experts say that using tea tree oil for skin care during the monsoon is very beneficial. Its natural properties help balance the skin’s oil levels and refresh it. It also protects the skin from fungal infections, eczema, rashes, and acne. Its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties fight bacteria, inhibiting their growth and helping prevent skin problems. It also protects the skin from oxidative stress and helps heal dry skin.
how to use it?
To use tea tree oil correctly, first wash your face thoroughly to remove any dirt, excess oil, dead skin cells, and impurities. Then, apply a tea tree serum. Keep in mind that applying tea tree oil or serum directly to the face can cause irritation; therefore, to protect the skin, always mix it with a carrier oil, moisturizer, or other product before applying.
2. Lavender Oil
Lavender oil is an essential oil that is beneficial for skin care. Its scent helps soothe skin cells. It has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties that are very beneficial for the skin.
How to use it?
To use it, mix it with moisturizer or another oil; this combination is also effective in reducing wrinkles. It’s important to note that essential oils are highly concentrated and may cause sensitivity or irritation if applied directly to the skin. Therefore, use them with caution and only after consulting a specialist.
