Patchouli Essential Oil is best used for promoting healthy skin. ✨ It is great for smoothing your complexion, reducing skin imperfections and blemishes, and minimizing wrinkles. It is even useful for treating fungal infections.
To use as a nourishing face oil, simply add 30-40 drops of essential oil to 4 ounces of your favorite carrier oil. Sophia Loren swore olive oil was the secret to her youthful glow, but you can also use coconut oil, jojoba oil, or any other natural carrier oil.
Combine Patchouli Essential Oil with Rosemary Essential Oil for a musky, floral, and earthy scented face oil.

WAKE UP & SLOW DOWN Our favorite caffeinated beverage does something mysteriously amazing: it simultaneously energizes and calms. The effects of the tea plant, Camellia sinensis, come from the combination of caffeine, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), and L-theanine. EGCG is a catechin associated with weight loss, disease prevention, cognitive function, and calmness. L-theanine is an amino-acid that generates lower-frequency brain waves (Alpha Waves). Alpha brainwaves are associated with relaxation, meditation, and creativity. Research also suggests that alpha brainwaves minimize depressive symptoms.
