Best Essential Oils for Face

Collection: Best Essential Oils for Face

Why these oils? We focus on skin-friendly aromatics and clear safety guidance (dilution, patch testing). These favorites are commonly used in low-percentage facial blends for soothing, balancing, or clarifying routines.

For everyday use, keep dilution gentle (often 0.5–1%). Avoid photosensitizing citrus on areas exposed to sun.

How do I dilute for facial use?

Start around 0.5–1% (≈3–6 drops per 1 oz/30 mL carrier). Adjust slowly based on tolerance.

What carrier should I use?

Choose a skin-compatible carrier oil (e.g., jojoba). Mix well and patch test.

Can I use citrus on my face?

Use caution and low dilutions; many citrus oils can increase photosensitivity.
