Essential Oil Facial Masks for Oily Skin

Clay facial masks are good for oily skin because they draw out some of the excess oil. Here's a clay essential oil facial mask for oily or blemished skin from Healing with Aromatherapy:

1-1/2 teaspoons green clay
1/2 teaspoon grapeseed oil
3 drops tea tree oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia)

Blend together all ingredients and add enough water or hydrosol to make a creamy paste. Apply to face. Leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

Yogurt Facial Mask

Here's a mask recipe for normal to oily skin from Aromatherapy for Common Ailments by Shirley Price.

2 drops lemon essential oil
1 drop geranium essential oil
1 drop ylang ylang essential oil
2 teaspoons live, natural, plain yogurt

Blend the ingredients and apply mixture evenly over your face. Leave on until mixture no longer feels cool, and then rinse off and apply a moisturizer.

Sour Cream Facial Mask

Here's another essential oil facial mask for oily skin:

1 egg white
1 drop grapefruit essential oil
1 teaspoon sour cream

Beat egg white until fluffy. Blend in sour cream and grapefruit essential oil. Apply to face, and leave on for 15 minutes. Rinse with warm water. Source: Tips and Recipes to Create Your Own Home Spa Experience!
