A DIY Oil To Help With Acne Prone Skin

While you may assume that acne and oil would be a skin disaster, certain oils are beneficial for a blemished prone complexion. Stripping the skin of all oil can actually result in the opposite effect as the skin starts to produce more oil to replace lost moisture. This usually leads to blocked pores and spots. Using a healthy oil that calms the skin and heals inflammation is highly effective in helping to clear your complexion. To create a serum-oil that fights acne, use the following ingredients; Hempseed oil  – this non-comedogenic oil won’t clog pores in acne prone skin. Furthermore, it boasts anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe the skin. It softens the skin, promotes elasticity and protects the skin from free-radicals – molecules with unpaired electrons that damage cells. Chamomile essential oil – this will help to calm your complexion. Aloe vera gel  – this boasts anti-inflammatory properties as well as hydrating the skin. Mix the chamomile oil with the hempseed oil – use 2 drops of chamomile oil per ounce of hempseed oil. Store in a glass bottle. Before usage, mix with aloe vera – this will prevent preservatives from needing to be used. Place a few drops of the mixed oil into your hand before adding a small amount of aloe vera gel. Mix together and apply over your complexion. It’s best used after cleansing and toning and instead of moisturiser. If you don’t have any chamomile oil, you can use tea tree oil.

While you may assume that acne and oil would be a skin disaster, certain oils are beneficial for a blemished prone complexion. Stripping the skin of all oil can actually result in the opposite effect as the skin starts to produce more oil to replace lost moisture. This usually leads to blocked pores and spots. Using a healthy oil that calms the skin and heals inflammation is highly effective in helping to clear your complexion.

To create a serum-oil that fights acne, use the following ingredients;

Hempseed oil

 – this non-comedogenic oil won’t clog pores in acne prone skin. Furthermore, it boasts anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe the skin. It softens the skin, promotes elasticity and protects the skin from free-radicals – molecules with unpaired electrons that damage cells.

Chamomile essential oil

– this will help to calm your complexion.

Aloe vera gel 

– this boasts anti-inflammatory properties as well as hydrating the skin.

Mix the chamomile oil with the hempseed oil – use 2 drops of chamomile oil per ounce of hempseed oil. Store in a glass bottle. Before usage, mix with aloe vera – this will prevent preservatives from needing to be used. Place a few drops of the mixed oil into your hand before adding a small amount of aloe vera gel. Mix together and apply over your complexion. It’s best used after cleansing and toning and instead of moisturiser.

If you don’t have any chamomile oil, you can use tea tree oil. Tea tree oil is effective in healing acne due to its antibacterial, antiseptic and antimicrobial properties. Great for acne prone skin.
Hemp seed oil can be substituted for jojoba oil, which is anti-inflammatory and is a natural emollient.
Use this face oil on a regular basis and in combination with other acne fighting products and treatments like SkinBase microdermabrasion and SkinBase IPL to promote a clearer complexion.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
