The quest for flawless skin can feel endless. We wash, scrub and exfoliate our faces, but every once in a while an imperfection or two can pop up.
To help eliminate blackheads, we’ve compiled a list of the top five essential oils for healthy skin. Be sure to dilute each essential oil properly with one of our carrier oils such as Tamanu, Hemp Seed or Argan.

What is the best essential oil to get rid of blackheads and what carrier should I use with it? Not argan oil, please. At the same time I would like the essential oil that removes blackheads to be good for my facial skin. Also what oil is best for wrinkles and deep lines. Thank you.

Hi Jannie! You can use any of the oils listed above for help with blackheads. Lavender additionally helps to mitigate the look of aging skin. I would pair this with a carrier oil such as Tamanu – not much of this mixture is needed to be effective.
