Acne and pimples can be difficult to shake, but one of the best natural acne treatments is simple, effective, and feels great to the skin: aromatherapy essential oils.

Acne is one of the most persistent skin problems among both adults and teens – that's why an entire industry has developed to offer "foolproof" acne cures and treatments. Though many home remedies for acne are known to work, some of the best natural acne treatments include essential oils or aromatherapy oils, especially in combination with fatty oils like olive or sweet almond.

Essential oils have been used for all kinds of cosmetic and health purposes since ancient times. The doctors of the Ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians were known for using essential oils and other herbal remedies as cures for almost every type of health problem – including skin conditions and to treat acne.

The skin responds especially well to aromatherapy oils as a natural acne treatment because the lipid nature of the oils can penetrate easily into the skin, where the oils heal and nourish the cells and relieve inflammation.

I've recently started following the 'Oil Cleansing Method' which uses Castor Oil as the base oil along with another non-comedogenic oil such as grapeseed or jojoba.
