Essential oils is the name given to more than 90 pure extracts from various plants. Despite the nomer ‘oil,' essential oils are not, in fact petroleum products. They can be rubbed on the skin or used in aromatherapy. High quality essential oils are completely derived naturally and won't clog pores. Because of their cleanliness, many essential oils can be used to help diminish acne.
Two of these oils are tea tree oil and emu oil. Emu oil, however, is not technically an essential oil, as it is derived from an animal. The emu is a mainly flightless bird originating mainly in Australia. The indigenous people of Australia, the Aborigines, use emu oil for its healing and restorative effects, particularly with regard to joint pain. Today, however, emu oil is used for a variety of purposes, one of those is to lessen the problem of acne.
Because emu oil is non-greasy and won't clog pores, it makes a good skin moisturizer and softener. Lotion, no matter how ‘clean' it is can still clog pores. Emu oil does the same job, but without the gunk that can cause acne.
Tea tree oil is another good choice for use on acne. This essential oil helps heal scars and won't clog pores. Like other essential oils, tea tree oil can also be used for aromatherapy, soothing, even as it reduces acne. Common tea tree oil and New Zealand tea tree oil are the two common forms. The sent is balsamic and woody. The New Zealand variety has a warmer, earthier aroma.
Essential oils can be combined, and emu oil is an excellent carrier of essential oils, including tea tree oil. A combination of emu and tea tree oils can give softer, moisturized skin with a pleasant smell—all while reducing acne.
