Essential Oils can be very helpful when dealing with rosacea. Learn about the best essential oils for rosacea.

Essential Oils for Rosacea

Rosacea is a chronic adult skin condition that manifests as red areas of inflammation on the cheeks, nose, forehead and/or chin. It is estimated that it impacts more than 16 million Americans. Often accompanied by bumps, the redness happens as blood vessels in the area expand. It typically comes and goes and can be triggered by exercise, alcohol, stress and spending time outside. While there is no clear link, it is believed that hormone changes may play a role for some women. Those with fair skin can be more vulnerable. Untreated, rosacea can continue to worsen over time.

Please note: The information provided below is a compilation of suggestions made by those that have used essential oils and has NOT been scientifically verified with clinical tests nor reviewed by medical experts. It is anecdotal information and should be treated as such. For serious medical concerns please seek professional medical attention.

Suggested Essential Oils for Rosacea

Rosacea can be caused by either infectious or autoimmune disorders. In the case of an autoimmune trigger, cleansing can be helpful. If there is an infectious disorder, antibiotic oils are helpful.

Topically

1 drop Frankincense Essential Oil
1 drop Helichrysum Essential Oil
1 drop Tea Tree Essential Oil

Dilute with ½ tablespoon carrier oil and apply three times a day.

Infectious Rosacea

20 drops Helichrysum Essential Oil
20 drops Frankincense Essential Oil
20 drops Sandalwood Essential Oil
10 drops Lavender Essential Oil
5 drops Rosemary Essential Oil
Carrier Oil

Place oils in a four ounce glass or safe plastic bottle. Fill with carrier oil. Shake well before use and spray on hands. Gently apply to face twice daily.


Other Natural Remedies for Rosacea

For both infectious and autoimmune triggers, diet is important. Avoid spicy foods, gluten and diary. Good supplements are key. Research shows that omega-3 fatty acids can help fight redness and irritation. Green tea may also be helpful.
