Hi Oily Friends!
There's a channel (218) on Dish TV called Veria that deals with EO's
in everyday life called "Everybody Nose". Yesterday I taped, then
took notes on the 3 blends she made up just for men. The first is an
aftershave solution, 2nd is for prostrate help/prevention and lastly
one for thinning hair...a scalp treatment.
MEN'S AFTER SHAVE:
25 drops of sandalwood (anti-inflammatory & skin regenerative)
25 drops of lavender (balancing)
15 drops palmarosa (antiseptic)
susan's note: Purchase palmarosa essential oil, from a YL "sister"
company, Creer Labs Aromatology, $23.95 for 15ml,
801-418-8870. (YL purchases rarer oils, and in smaller quantities
via Creer Labs, and they are sold separately from YL.)
Add to base of 4 oz. witch hazel hydrosol = 2 oz. distilled water.
Shake vigorously befoe use.
PROSTRATE HELP/PREVENTION:-Helps cleanse toxins out of system.
8 drops cedarwood (circulatory stimulant)
4 drops juniper (relieves excess fluids/tonic for veins
2 drops myrrh (vascular tonic)
4 drops pine (anti-inflammatory/diuretic)
Add oils to a 2 oz. bottle of sweet almond oil OR to an aloe vera gel base.
Gently roll bottle to mix OR stir gently into gel base. Apply 3x weekly to
lower back, kidneys and groin area for help to prevent prostrate problems.
SCALP TREATMENT FOR HAIR LOSS:...Stimulates hair follicles and
lessens an oily scalp that could clog hair follicles.
4 drops clary sage (relaxing/skin tonic)
4 drops rosemary (nourishes scalp/stimulates circulation)
2 drops cedarwood (stimulates circulation)
2 drops Ylang ylang ( for contolling excessive oily scalp, which can clog
pores)
Add to base of 1 oz. jojoba oil gently rolling to mix.
Hope this post is of some use to somebody out there.
Have fun slathering!
