Creating your own face serum is one of the most exciting ways to use essential oils. People search far and wide for the perfect face serum because everyone wants to stay looking young. Each one of these recipes are all worth trying to figure out which one you like best. The below recipes are based off of a 15mL dropper bottle. Add your own essential oils to the bottle first to create your synergy, swirl around to mix well, then add your desire carrier oils. All carrier oils must be pure, raw, organic, cold pressed, and unrefined. Do not use carrier oils that are considered cooking oils. Look online for a company that specializes in carrier oils - they are the best place to purchase for facial applications.
*NOTE: If you accidentally get some essential oils in your eye, do not flush it with water. You will be forcing the essential oil deeper into your eye, causing the burn to feel like an inferno. The best thing is flush it with a carrier oil. AKA olive oil, coconut oil, etc..
