6 of Nature’s Best Essential Oils for Radiant Skin This Spring
Spring is the season of new beginnings. Fresh buds blossom and animals come out of hibernation to reawaken to a world of abundance. As blooming flowers fill the outdoors, they infuse the air with their distinct aromas.
Essential oils give a plant its signature fragrance and also protect it from environmental dangers. They are compounds that can be extracted from a plant’s roots, seeds, flowers, or bark. These oils are produced through steam or water distillation and can also be made through cold pressing.
When blended into skin care products, essential oils offer a host of benefits straight from nature’s pharmacy that can enhance your complexion.

Essential oils are extremely powerful and must be applied safely for skin care. For reference, it takes 75 lemons to make 15 mL of lemon oil, 27 square feet of lavender plants to make 15 mL of lavender oil, and a pound of raw peppermint to make 15 mL of peppermint oil.
Remember not to use essential oils directly on your skin, as they are highly concentrated and can cause adverse reactions. You should dilute essential oils with a carrier oil, such as coconut oil, before using them topically.
To incorporate essential oils safely into your natural skin care routine, use JK7®’s blended formulas that are handmade under expert guidance and tested for pharmaceutical-grade benefits and safety.
