This popular essential oil has many benefits for the skin, and is of particular use for products aimed at problem skin – such as acne and pimples – since it has a most beneficial effect on balancing the production of skin sebum (oil), while at the same time stimulating regeneration of the skin cells.

Palmarosa oil helps to moisturize the skin, while balancing the hydration levels and stimulating cell regeneration. More importantly it helps to balance the production of sebum (oil in the skin) and therefore helps with correcting an overly oily skin, which can be a contributory factor in skin problems. It helps to keep the skin supple and elastic and is valuable for use with acne, dermatitis, preventing scarring, rejuvenating and regenerating the skin, as well as fighting minor skin infections. Palmarosa oil can also help clear up minor infections and prevents ugly scarring in healing wounds.

On cellular level, it helps with the formation of new tissue and for that reason is great for rejuvenating and regenerating the skin. It is most useful when fighting a dry skin and to sort out skin infections.

It has antiseptic, antimicrobial, antiviral, bactericide, cytophylactic and hydrating properties.
