I’ve been using essential oils for many years now, but Geranium is an oil that I just recently discovered. In my pursuit of knowledge of making your own skin care, I kept finding over and over how the Geranium essential oil skin benefits are vast. This might just be my new favorite essential oil for beauty!
Just recently I included geranium in my recipe for a Skin Firming Facial Cream. Geranium oil has the ability to help balance hormones, soothe stress and depression, reduce inflammation, encourage circulation, and lower blood pressure!
See, I told you, it’s a good one-read on to learn the miracles it does for skin!!
Geranium Essential Oil Skin Benefits
- Astringent- basically this means it contracts the skin, in other words, it tightens and firms! Geranium can actually tighten your skin and give you a smoother look. It can prevent your skin from sagging long term and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and delay premature aging!
- Cytophylactic- it encourages your skin to slough off dead skin cells and regenerate new cells.
- Cicatrisant- geranium oil is able to greatly reduce scars and spots. It revs up blood circulation which helps promote healing and even skin tone.
- Antibacterial and Antimicrobial-keeps wounds from getting infected as well as healing present infection. This is amazing news for people using geranium to heal acne!
- Vulnerary- this means geranium oil will speed up the healing process for wounds and cuts.
- Balances skin-Basically if you are oily or dry, geranium oil will bring balance to extreme skin types.
- Relieves water retention and swelling. Great for puffy eyes!
How to Incorporate it in your Beauty Regime:
- Apply 3-4 drops to your skin in the morning underneath your moisturizer.
