Pure Chemistry

Not every product on the shelf in a supermarket, pharmacy or health store is an aromatherapy skin care product. Due to allergies that some people may have, a plain and basic non aromatherapy skin care product is all they can use. This non aromatherapy skin care product does not only apply to a baby’s sensitive skin, but to anyone who may suffer from any allergic reaction to additives in any skin care product be it young or old, male or female.

Basic Base

Whatever aromatherapy skin care product you may use, from creams and lotions to salts and oils, they all have to be in a base or a carrier oil in which the essential oils from various plants, herbs or tree oils are added to, to perform their function, which is to be absorbed in through the skin be it from a soak in a bath or from a gentle massage with creams or oils after a soothing bath. In addition to these products other methods of aromatherapy can be used such as burning some incense sticks or a few scented candles, with a good glass of wine for adults only, some good soft music in the background and hopefully some good company too, can do the world of good.

You can also use an aromatherapy skin care product after you have had a gym session with a sauna afterward, when the body is very receptive to accepting what you apply to it.

If you are using an aromatherapy skin care product it is better to use it in a bath or after one, as the pores of your skin are open and is absorbed better. Not only does it penetrate better but it would also have the proper effect and last longer, than if the skin were cold and the pores not open.

To The Spa We Go

Now when we talk about an aromatherapy spa product, the thoughts of being in a mud wrap after a salt scrub come to mind. A tranquil, warm, dim lit room and soft music in the back ground help to calm the mind, enough not allow you to fall asleep on the preparation bed, and then after a half an hour, a nice hot steamy shower with a invigorating shower gel, after that it is just pure heavenly soft scented oil based creams massaged gently into your skin to finish off the job, and now all you want to do once you get dressed is truly go home and have a wonderful slumber dreaming of the whole spa procedure all over again.
