Known as one of the best essential oils for skin, Helichrysum essential oil contains rejuvenating benefits that can help to promote a healthy-looking complexion. With molecular compounds that can help improve the appearance of skin, Helichrysum oil is a smart addition to any skin care regimen. One of the greatest benefits of Helichrysum oil is that it provides a safe, natural way to improve your skin. Many, if not all, commercial cleansers and moisturizers on the market contain harmful toxins, but using a pure essential oil like dōTERRA's Helichrysum helps you to keep your skin clean and protected.
