Hello, I've been mixing as a moisturizer jojoba oil (15 ml) and rose hip oil (15 ml). I also add 5 drops of essential rose oil and 5 grops of essential camomile roman oil. I just love it . My friend said to me that I can use only one type of essential oil in my mixture. I'm not sure that she is right...
I'm sure that there are some oils that not suppose to be mixed together, but I think essential rose and camomile roman oils could be mixed together without any problem. Please, correct me if I'm wrong. |

I am no expert but I believe you can definately put more than two essential oils together. Especially both rose and camomile roman oils are good for dry skin. I have also been using jojoba and sweet almond oil with rose, jasmine, and geranium with great results |

You are correct, I wasn't going to post the whole list I have of oils and which ones work best with which. I have included the 2 you say you are using. HTH
Chamomile, German and Roman: Both have a fruity, apple-like aroma. Both contain Azuline, a powerful anti-inflammatory. German has slightly more and is a deeper blue color. Both have analgesic, antidepressant, antirheumatic and sedative properties, among many other properties. Blend well with bergamot, jasmine, palmarosa, rose and ylang ylang.
[b]Rose Otto: Deep, sweet and flowery, an exquisite perfume. Also known as Damask Rose from Bulgaria. It is antidepressant, antiseptic, antispasmodic, aphrodisiac, bactericide, diuretic, emmenagogue, laxative, sedative and stomachic. Since it is an emmenagogue, it is best avoided in pregnancy. Has a soothing effect on the emotions, particularly depression, grief, jealousy and resentment. Lifts and heart and eases nervous tension and stress. Gives a woman positive feelings about herself. Clams premenstrual tension, promotes vaginal secretions and regulates the menstrual cycle. Its beneficial action on infertility aids "male" problems too probably by increasing the semen. Helpful with sexual difficulties, particularly frigidity and impotence. Release the "happy" hormone dopamine. Activates sluggish blood circulation, relieving cardiac congestion and toning the capillaries. Relieves nausea, vomiting and constipation to some extent. Has a purging action on toxins, the Romans valued it for hangovers. Has a soothing action on sore throats and eases coughs. Useful for all skin types, though particularly good for mature, dry, hard or sensitive skin. Valuable treatment for broken thread veins. Blends well with bergamot, chamomile, clary sage, geranium, lavender, orange and sandalwood. |
