Skin massage has often been touted as a treatment for cellulite, and three essential oils can help the proces: juniper, lavender, and rosemary.

Juniper and rosemary are both diuretic oils that stimulate blood flow, improve circulation, and reduce puffiness, swelling, and water retention. These qualities are important in relation to cellulite when you consider that it is the result of fluid accumulation in the fatty layer of the skin. This happens when there are problems in the microcirculation, and its’ believed to be associated with our hormones – especially estrogen.

When these three oils are combined with a therapeutic carrier oil, they can be massaged into the skin for a good alternative cellulite remedy.

To minimize wrinkles we should always be conscious of how you touch your face. When we are washing our face as much as possible do not scrub vigorously. Harsh, hard, or vigorous movements and touches can stretch and pull at the skin in an adverse way. Like when we dry our face pat it dry, rather than rubbing a cloth up and down. When we apply makeup use brushes rather than your fingers. It applies makeup with a light, easy touch, which means less stress and tugging for your skin. When you use your finger, there is more pressure exerted on the skin, even if it feels minute to you. Cleansing our face regularly and ensure that we removed ALL makeup is very important to prevent wrinkles.
