Patchouli essential oil  has been very useful in my home recently as it contributes to a calming and grounding environment. I combine Patchouli  with Lavender and Cedarwood to keep my emotions balanced while I am home. Patchouli oil is also one of the main components of dōTERRA’s InTune blend which is one of my favorite blends to help me stay focused.

Have you added Patchouli oil to your essential oil collection yet? If you haven’t tried Patchouli oil yet, you are in for a pleasant surprise. There are several reasons to use Patchouli oil, but here are the top three benefits:

  1. Patchouli oil can benefit the skin. Use Patchouli oil to help get rid of the occasional skin imperfection or blemish, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or just to improve the overall look of your complexion.
  2. Patchouli oil can help to balance the emotions. When used topically or aromatically, Patchouli oil can help to balance your emotions when you are feeling frazzled or overwhelmed.
  3. Patchouli oil has many useful beautifying properties. In addition to using Patchouli oil for skin, you can also use it in your personal hygiene routine as a perfume, or to beautify the hair.

A member of the mint family, Patchouli is known to help with skin imperfections, while also providing a grounding, balancing effect on emotions.

  • Combine with Peppermint and apply to the forehead, temples, or back of the neck after a long day of work.
  • Apply one to two drops to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, blemishes, or problem skin areas, or add to your favorite moisturizer.
  • Combine with Vetiver and apply to the bottoms of feet to help calm emotions.

About Best Essential Oils

My husband and I have been using natural solutions since before we were married, so when we were introduced to doTERRA essential oils about seven years ago it didn’t take long before we were addicted! We love how pure and potent they are.

We started this blog so we could share our experiences and you could learn all about doTERRA essential oils too!

I also blog at MyNaturalFamily.com.
