I often sing the praises for Yarrow|Pom for its skin benefits. In this short video, I talk about my favorite uses and benefits of the oil. They are alphabeticaly so you will find Yarrow|Pom towards the end.
Yarrow|Pomm is also great for so much more! There is also Yarrow|Pom capsules and a body serum that have some wonderful benefits. Let's take a look at them!
Yarrow|Pom Oil
This is made of Pomegranate Seed Oil and Yarrow Essential Oil.
Pomegranate Seed Oil: This is a carrier oil, but it also has many benefits. doTERRA harvests their pomegranate seed oil through cold-pressing. This method provides the highest amount of crucial fatty acids and keeps it free from impurities. Pomegranate seed oil is rich in omega-5 fatty acids. The fatty acids in the oil are known to provide metabolic support in key organs such as your liver and pancreas. You would typically find these fatty acids in meat and dairy, but this oil contains the fatty acids in a fruit source.
Yarrow Essential Oil: Yarrow is a good source of beta-caryophyllene. Early scientific studies suggest beta-caryophyllene may have some wonderful benefits. Some possible benefits are it may support a healthy nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, inflammatory response, and immune system response. When used topically it may also have cleansing properties and help maintain youthful-looking skin.
So put the two together and what are some of the benefits you get?
- May provide antioxidant support when taken internally
- May support healthy immune function when taken internally
- May support healthy metabolic function when taken internally
- Soothes the skin
So how do you use it for these wonderful benefits?
Internal Use: You can either put a drop or two in a veggie cap or in a glass of water.
Topical Use: There are a few ways to use this oil topically.
- Apply directly to the face and neck during your skincare routine. It can help soothe the skin or help reduce the appearance of blemishes. I like to apply it directly under my eyes.
- Put a drop in your facial moisturizer and rub it in.
- Use in a massage with a carrier oil.
This oil does have a deep blue color. Don't worry, that color will not stay on your skin.
