Use Palma Rosa for better skin. This oil has been used for many health purposes and skin care is one of them. Add a few drops into a bath for improved skin elasticity. Use with water to get rid of wrinkles on the facial area. Use it sparingly; do not put a bottle in the bath and expect results. A few drops in the bath water works best. Also use the oil over time. Consistency works best and your body reacts better to the oil this way.

Use Evening Primrose to rid the body of belly fat. Use the oil on the body, and take the oral supplement. This combination releases belly fat by approaching it from within as well as from without. The oil leaves the skin soft and increases elasticity. Use sparingly and over time. Add a few drops to the bath and use an amount that is equal to the small of your palm to cover the belly evenly. Positive results occur when used with the supplement. If you drink a great deal of soda, this can take much longer. Some of the gases found in soda increase bloating. If removed or decreased from your diet, results show in a more pleasant time frame.

Use Lavender for a steam facial. This oil is used for all types of skin. Put a few drops into a sink of hot water, or steaming water, and cover your head with a towel so no steam escapes. This cleanses, lifts and smooths tired facial skin. Breathing may become difficult in the steam. Covering your head for a count of 3 and letting yourself out of the towel has the same effect as staying for a longer period of time. Steaming also aids in removing whiteheads and blackheads when used over time. Consistency and small amounts in the steam water work best. When finished with the facial steam, pat skin dry with a cloth.

Tips & Warnings
In time these oils can improve your skin's elasticity and overall health. Take your time with these methods and elasticity can improve. Results will happen, but not overnight. To assume that any method gives overnight results is unrealistic.
With the steam facial, use caution if you have respiratory problems; also, do not hold your breath, as this causes stress to the new cells now coming forward in your facial skin.
As with any change in diet or supplements, ask your doctor first if these oils are beneficial to your own health. The author of this article is not a doctor and does not claim to be and does not assume any responsibility to the use or overuse of these methods. Take care of your health and fully research any questions you may have about these or any other oils that may be suggested to you.
