The health of our skin is linked to our emotions and environment. In times of uncertainty as many of us face ongoing challenges and stress this winter, incorporating the benefits of aromatherapy and essential oils into our daily rituals can help relieve stress and support the health of our skin.

During cooler winter months the air has lower humidity and inside air quality is stripped of moisture. This dry climate evaporates moisture in our skin, the result leads to a buildup of dry, flaky skin cells that don't shed as quickly, contributing to a cycle of dryness that can eventually lead to irritation and skin sensitivity.

Essential oils contain potent healing properties that reduce inflammation, balance our natural oil production and stimulate blood supply to improve the health of our skin. We have selected our top essential oils to soothe and heal dry, cracked skin with aromatherapy benefits that promote a sense of relaxation and enhance a feeling of wellness.
