You’ve come to the right place if you are wondering how to use Essential Oils to Maintain Clear Skin.
These won’t keep everyone’s skin clear but it can help many people.
Here are some essential oils to try:
- 2 drops of helichrysum essential oil and frankincense essential oil and 1 drop of thyme essential oil mixed with 1 Tablespoon of carrier oil. (Coconut oil * absorbs the fastest so is perfect for daytime use.) Try something a little heavier, like grapeseed, jojoba, or avocado oil, for nighttime use. After you put the oil on make sure you cover it. (A pair of gloves is great, but a pair of clean, white socks works just as well.) Unfortunately there is no 1 combination of oils that works for everyone.
- Zendocrine detoxification blend internally can maintain clear skin, because mild skin issues are usually the result of a need to cleanse.
doTERRA Products to Reduce Breakouts for a Clear Complexion
I hate breakouts. I still have a problem with them in my 40’s. It’s got to be one of the worse parts of being a teenager. Seriously. For teenagers, they are often caused by changing hormones, so Clary Calm Blend for Women can be beneficial, as well as a good skin care regimen.
For us older people, I’ve found that breakouts can be caused by hormones, needing to detox or not enough minerals (especially zinc and/or magnesium). I’m sure there are other reasons, such as not washing your face regularly and properly, etc.
Here is a twice daily skin care routine I’ve found best to reduce breakouts and for a beautiful, clear complexion.
Step #1 – Cleanse with HD Clear Foaming Face Wash
Step #2 – Treat with HD Clear Topical Blend
Step #3 – Moisturize with HD Clear Facial Lotion
On Occasion – treat occasional breakouts with my “Breakouts Be Gone” Formula or Spa Detoxifying Mud Mask *
Also, consider supplementing with Redmond Clay *, Zendocrine Softgels and/or the Lifelong Vitality Pack to get your minerals and other nutrients.
Breakouts Be Gone Paste
Pinch of Redmond Clay * Powder
1 drop Melaleuca
1 drop Lavender
Mix clay and oil into a paste. Apply and let dry 1-8 hours. Rinse.

I would say that the xeo mega fish oil liquid for kids and finding any food allergies will help him the most so you may want to be thinking in that direction.
