Choose a Nourishing Oil: Rosehip seed oil: Incredibly regenerating, this oil is known for its firming and anti-aging abilities – it’s good for dry, aging, and normal skin. Carrot seed oil: You only need a small amount of this oil, but it’s superb for any skin type – is there anything it won’t heal? Borage oil: Crazy high in oleic acids, this oil is great for most skin types, but especially oily and acneic skin. Evening primrose oil: Acne, aging, normal skin, you name it – and evening primrose oil can even be taken internally to help with acne. Emu oil: Emollient like you wouldn’t believe, emu oil is protective and nourishing for dry or aging skin.   Choose an oil for different skin types Lavender: acne, oily, or even dry skin – lavender is healing, but a little, tiny bit goes a long way. Peppermint is great for oily and acneic skin, and like lavender don’t use much! It’s very astringent, but it might also tingle your skin right off its bones. Chamomile: Roman chamomile is wonderfully healing and soothing, so it’s great for ALL skin types, very great, but also very expensive.
