Plant Natrual Cypress Oil for Diffuser Aromatherapy

There are plenty of essential oils out there. But unlike the tea trees and lavenders and peppermints of the world that get plenty of attention in the skincare space, Cypress Oil flies somewhat under the radar. But it shouldn’t—the ingredient has been well-studied and is shown to have some proven topical benefits, particularly for those with oily or acne-prone skin.

Benefits

Like most essential oils, Cypress Essential Oil is perfectly suited for use in your hair on its own, or when added to a regular herbal shampoo to help boost its qualities. The oil can be massaged into your scalp (preferably after wetting your hair) to help stimulate the flow of blood to your scalp. This will help to pass vital nutrients and minerals to your hair follicles, allowing you to strengthen and nourish your hair from within, as well as slow (and ultimately prevent) hair loss.

Cypress essential oil is great for ridding the body of bacteria that lead to infections, so can be ingested to help treat your cold or the flu, whilst aiding your body’s overall functionality. At the same time, the oil can be used to help treat a cough you may have, as it’s considered a natural antispasmodic and respiratory tonic.

Because cypress essential oil is anti-microbial and anti-bacterial, it can help clean and heal cuts and wounds, preventing skin infections and scars. Be sure to dilute in a Carrier Oil before applying it to the skin. Please be advised that for significant cuts and deeper wounds, you should seek medical attention.

As a pore cleanser, cypress oil naturally draws out toxins and impurities from the skin, helps to shrink pores, and firm loose sagging skin. With regular daily use, you can expect natural detoxification which will expose newly regenerated skin for an increased glow in your complexion!

Uses

Promoting vitality and boosting energetic feelings, Cypress oil can be used for its aromatic and topical benefits. Cypress oil is composed of monoterpenes, which can help improve the appearance of oily skin. It can also be applied topically to give the body an energizing lift. The chemical structure of Cypress oil also contributes to its renewing and uplifting fragrance. When used aromatically, Cypress oil produces a clean aroma that has both an invigorating and grounding effect on the emotions. Due to Cypress oil’s rejuvenating aroma and skin benefits, it is commonly used in spas and by massage therapists.
