What’s in This Glow Serum Recipe?
Almond Oil
Almond Oil is a moisturizing humectant. This means that it helps to keep your skin hydrated by trapping moisture, making it an excellent choice for those with dry or aged skin. By using this versatile oil in your glow serum, you’re not only pampering your skin but also getting one step closer to achieving that sought-after radiant glow.
Marjoram Essential Oil
This herbaceous oil is known for its calming and centering properties, which make it an excellent choice for promoting rest and relaxation. Marjoram Essential Oil helps to comfort your mood and brings a pleasant aroma that elevates your senses and creates a serene atmosphere.
Good Vibes Essential Oil Blend
One key component to achieve the perfect formula is the Good Vibes Essential Oil Blend. This fantastic blend adds an enticing aroma to your serum and helps to soothe stress, promoting positivity and overall well-being.
Cedarwood (Atlas) Essential Oil
Cedarwood (Atlas) Essential Oil provides your serum with a delightful added aroma that supports awareness and centers your being. As an added bonus, Cedarwood Essential Oil works wonders in reducing the appearance of blemishes and deeply cleansing your skin.

Tips For Preventing Skin Sensitivity
Are you someone who’s constantly dealing with skin sensitivity? If so, you’ll be pleased to know you can try to prevent it. One highly effective method is to choose just one essential oil, dilute it, and see how your skin responds to it. This is equally important when it comes to carrier oils. By employing this approach, it becomes much easier to identify if the sensitivity you’re experiencing is due to a particular oil or the concentration you used.
If you want to experiment with different essential oils, you can mix and match oils mentioned in this list of the 20 Best Essential Oils for the Skin. Just make sure to use the same dilution as directed in the recipe.
