Look Years Younger and Achieve Robust Wellness with Essential Oils


By Lisa Wilson


my appearance. I am not kidding when I say I had skin bumps and lumps SO bad that I used to hide behind my hair. I tried with makeup to cover these purple marbles, but there was really no hiding it. Severe acne really is a skin disease. While staying out of sight as a young woman from ages 13-23, I knew I had something to contribute to the world. Yet, I did not want to be seen, socialize, and the thought of being kissed, well that was a terrifying thought.


W I took a lifetime's worth of antibiotics from ages 13-21. Then,


I moved to the heavy hitter, Accutane. It's a drug that is so damag- ing to the liver, and it's so toxic that if a woman gets pregnant while on it, the baby will be severely deformed. At age 21, with purple marbles protruding from my face, I didn't stop to consider the con- sequences. However, that was not the end of my acne. In my 40's, it turned from acne to ‘back-ne’. I had a back full of these marble lumps. I wore no sundresses, no tanks, and I kept my hair long to cover it all.


Because I grew up on processed and fast food, I did not de- velop a strong constitution. Meaning, I was always sick. Since acne,

hen I was asked to write an article on natural skin care, I JUMPED on it. Here's why: In the past, having horrible skin was just my 'thing,' and I had accepted this about


I've faced breast lumps, Graves' disease, vaccine reactions with my kids, and for ALL of it I have found solutions to overcome naturally. Impeccable eating comes fi rst, then advanced plant therapies and natural techniques.


We're living in the most toxic era this world has ever seen.


Thousands of chemicals are now legal in our food supply, our water is contaminated and so is the very air we breathe. Turning to advanced techniques is no longer optional. It is a must.


Let's Talk Skin The average woman leaves the house every day after applying


about 500 chemicals topically to her skin. These chemicals SKIP the built-in fi ltration process the body brilliantly has, and the chemicals go directly into the blood. This is a BIG problem!


My solution is natural products and essential oils. Not only are


you skipping the chemicals, but you are also nourishing your skin with some of the most potent, yet well-balanced plant therapies on the planet. The best anti-aging serums come from plant extracts. They have the ability to encourage robust cellular health inside and out which translates into making your skin look years younger.


When I was fi rst introduced to essential oils, I was told they were anti-microbial and anti-bacterial. I was told they would be great for acne. I was SO programmed since the age of 13 and al- ways told that I had 'oily' skin, I could not emotionally bring myself to apply oils to my skin. It was counter-intuitive to everything I'd been attempting to do for decades. For decades, I had been trying to DRY UP my oily skin!


One day, I brought myself to apply a blend of oils for healthy


skin, which included melaleuca oil. To my shock, it cleared up my skin. I started to experiment with other essential oils on my face. Remarkably, they have different properties and are used for different things such as fi ne lines, collagen support, and robust cellular health.


Let’s Talk Daily Routines 7am - Ready for a super cool, anti-aging tip? DON'T wash your


face before your morning workout! Use the natural oils you wake up with on your face. Apply directly to your unwashed face 1-2 drops of essential oils, plus 3-4 drops of fractionated coconut oil, which is also anti-bacterial. Best oils for beautiful skin: Frankincense, Myrrh, Immortelle (a beautiful blend of Frankincense, Myrrh, Sandalwood, Helichrysum, Rose and Lavender), Geranium or Fennel.


Next, I apply my workout oils! These are some of the best-kept secrets that professional and Olympic athletes are using to improve
