Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
For years I have researched what repairs the skin. I was discouraged because everything I found, even from the experts, said that nothing repaired the skin. I was determined to find something.
I tried many products and oils that supposedly repair (not just prevent) wrinkles: avocado, walnut, olive, almond, borage, vitamin E, and castor. I really did not see a difference.
I also tried various essential oils... and still no change. I have always had good skin; however, I am almost 50, and under my left eye I have had for years what appears to be a checkerboard. I assume I sleep on my left side.
I read a testimony about Carrot Seed and Elemi essential oils, and, within 2 weeks after following the suggested protocol, I could see a difference. It did repair that "checkerboard" under my left eye, and my skin just glows overall! (I still have some fine lines under my eyes, but this major issue I had is repaired.)
Here is how I did it:
I put Carrot Seed on my face neat 3 x a week -- I use just one to two drops -- it spreads well. I put a drop on each pinky and gently dot under my eyes, but not too close, and then start working the oil outward onto my face.
My mixture is 4 drops each of Carrot and Elemi essential oils to 8 drops of carrier oil. I use either borage oil, meadow foam seed oil, raspberry seed oil, or emu oil. And sometimes I mix them. You can get these carrier oils on Amazon.com. Just read the reviews and choose one that appeals to you.
I also add one drop of Frankincense, Lemon, Pine, and Lavender oils (I read testimonials that these oils are also good for wrinkles) and a few drops of Vitamin E oil, as well as some aloe vera gel from my aloe plant. All of this is not necessary since the Carrot and Elemi oils are effective without. So if mixing all these things overwhelms you, then leave them out.
I also take Frankincense in a capsule (2 drops). I know some people who take it twice a day. I take it once, for depression and anxiety. It works!! I also take Carrot Seed oil in my capsule, as it is good for so many things. Just type in Carrot Seed in a search on www.Oil-Testimonials.com to read other testimonials.
My oldest daughter (who is 32) had acne, scars, and no life to her skin at all. She uses just the Carrot Seed oil every night before bed on her face along with the ART Skin Care System. Her face has never looked so good. The scars are nearly gone, and her skin glows! Carrot seed oil is a great sunscreen too.

Most notably, inhalation of essential oils can communicate signals to the olfactory system and stimulate the brain to exert neurotransmitters (e.g. serotonin and dopamine), thereby further regulating mood." | Link |
