Litsea oil is great for the skin for a number of reasons. I ve found that when applying it to my skin, it doesn t leave a sticky or oily layer behind. It absorbs easily (as I mentioned before) and has strong antibacterial qualities.
This makes it ideal for removing and reducing the risk of harmful free-radical agents that we come into contact with throughout the course of the day and are caused by air pollutants, fatty foods or possibly even medication we might be taking. These cause minor chemical reactions on the surface of your skin which damage skin cells and prevent them from healing damaged tissue. This can also speed up the ageing process.
Litsea oil also contains a large percentage of natural alcohols which, in small amounts, can be effective in removing any excess sebum oil that commonly occurs in skin types that are considered oily already. This oil can clog up your pores, along with dead skin cells caused by exposure to the free radical agents on your skin and can cause infections and blemishes or worsen acne. Acne really is a very annoying affliction and can really have a negative effect on your self-image and personal confidence.
Don t let it hold you back from living your life though – most of us have experienced acne or blemishes at some point of our lives, so we all know that feeling of being too afraid of going outside because of a big sore on your nose or something like that. I suggest immediate and repeated treatment with a variety of natural products to help lessens the effects and clear up your blemishes in a short time.
I recommend a face scrub that is all-natural and has worked for me on a day to day basis. Having an oily skin type myself, I understand the woes of treating skin like this. The best advice I can give is to wash your face regularly (twice a day) with a scrub and conditioner.
For a natural facial scrub, simply add 1-(1/2) tablespoons of sugar to a mixture of 10 drops Litsea oil, 10 drops of Orange/Lemon oil and a tablespoon of Shea Butter or Argan Oil.
Mix the ingredients until you have a paste-like matter (add sugar or Shea Butter/Argan oil as needed to thicken the mixture).
Gently scrub your face with the mixture and wash it off with warm water. You can apply either the Litsea or Orange oil after the scrub as a natural conditioner (use a cotton swab). You can leave this to set in or rinse your face again with warm water – it's up to you.
This should work pretty well though – I ve been using this method for a while and have been quite happy. It s cheap, natural and very effective!
