steps to good skin - aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is an ancient pre historic period therapeutic practices for healing, beauty and well being. It was famous in Egypt, China and Far East. Back in those days, they used extracted essences from aromatic plants to cure epidemic remedies and various skin conditions.
These extracted essences became essential oils that carries the 'aroma' and it was suppose to help to cure the physical symptoms and promote a healthier well being. Since we started this beauty blog, it is great to with you on a good understanding our what essential oils are and how it is really handy to keep some of them at the kitchen for traditional remedies at home!!
In order to understand the different types of oils and how to create aromatherapy at home, first you must understand its function as they are many products out there in the market that cater various needs. There are fragrance oils ( for the room) , essential oils ( for aromatherapy , treatment, skin problems , vapour treatment) carrier oils (oils that can be mixed together with essential oils before you apply directly on to the skin).
These are home remedies that are easy, effective and its cheap too! Sometime we might consider investing on a luxury beauty cream to have an instant effect, but we must also never underestimate that natural ingredients also does wonder and luxurious too.
So, the first step to have a beauty cabinet at home is a collection of essential oils and herbs ( the same that you use for cooking like rosemary, thyme ) olive oil, yogurt, eggs,honey, oatmeal or almond powder and fresh fruits and milk ( fresh or powder works fine too) and you will find you have amazing ingredients for homemade skincare recipe to try once a week at least.
And of course, busy women on the go should at least invest on a good skincare, like me and Aira found Nuskin works for us and Galvanic spa complements our beauty regime at home without having to leave the house or book for spa appointment anymore...
