Geranium Oil – The Secret to Beautiful Skin

Geranium Oil (Pelargonium graveolens) is one of the most specific oils for women. It’s strengths lie in balancing hormones, anti aging skin care and healing the heart.No matter what your skin type is, oily, dry or combination, Geranium is the answer. It balances the pH of your skin, so it adds moisture where you are too dry and it regulates oil production where too much.

This ability to give your skin exactly what it needs is called ‘balancing’.

This floral oil is perfect for dry, aging or sensitive skin and its many skin renewing benefits make it a popular ingredient in the very best skin care products.

1. Reduce Wrinkles

Over the years, your skin slowly starts to lose it’s elasticity, and in those years wrinkles show up. Geranium oil’s astringent effect allows skin tissues to tighten and contract, significantly reducing the appearance of wrinkles. It also has antioxidant effects to slow down skin aging, helping you look younger. This oil is such a simple addition to your skin care rituals. It can be as easy as adding a few drops to your existing moisturizer or face oil.

  • 2 drops Geranium Essential Oil
  • 1 drop Frankincense Essential oil
  • 2 Tbsp Sweet Almond Oil
  • 2 Tbsp Argan Oil

Apply to Face and Neck 2 times per day (morning and night).

2. Acne and Breakouts

It’s hard to have glowing skin if you’re also dealing with zits and breakouts. We spoke earlier of the ‘balancing’ effect of Geranium. This balancing helps to regulate excess oil which could later clog your pores and cause a breakout.That’s why Geranium is a ‘go to’ oil for clearing up skin. It is antibacterial, antiseptic and reduces inflammation.
