Essential oils for Summer
En este artículo
Summer is here and with it, the heat, long trips, outings and nights out. Gotes has a few ideas for your summer profile:
Rosemary, if you want to care for orange-peel skin. Add it to a vegetable oil for a daily upward massage: consistency is the key to improving the look of your skin.
Lavender and ylang ylang, for after the beach. Always protect yourself with sunscreen. Back home, a few drops of lavender or ylang ylang in a vegetable oil moisturise the body and leave a relaxing scent. A gentle temple massage is a lovely end to the day.
Geranium, for evenings outdoors. Its fresh, floral scent in the diffuser is perfect for nights on the terrace.
Helichrysum, for athletes. Well diluted in a vegetable oil, it brings comfort in a post-workout massage.
Lavender and eucalyptus, for hiking. A foot massage with lavender diluted in vegetable oil moisturises dry feet. The fresh scent of eucalyptus on a tissue is a good companion on the trail.
Petitgrain and eucalyptus, for travelling. A few drops on a tissue let you take a relaxing or fresh scent with you in the car, on the train or on the plane.
Rosemary, for the morning after a night out. Take a cool shower with 1 or 2 drops of rosemary in your shower gel to start the day with energy.
Petitgrain, for frequent flyers. After a long flight, its scent helps you create a moment of calm before bed.
Sound familiar? Remember that essential oils are not applied directly to the skin: they must be diluted in a cream, shampoo or vegetable oil. And avoid the sun after applying citrus oils, because they are photosensitising. If you have any questions, get in touch.
The Gotes team wishes you a wonderful summer with your favourite oils.
