Pogostemon patchouli
An old favourite of the 60’s.
This oil is great for treating oily skin. Its strong earthy
herbaceous odour is
used in the East to scent linen and clothes.
It has a cell
regeneration action (as do lavender, neroli, tangerine and
mandarin). In the mid eastern countries it is used
for poisonous snake bites and stings.
As it is an anti-fungal,
athletes foot can be treated as well as dandruff. With
the skin regenerating action, it is particularly helpful
for scar tissue, cracked skin and the more mature type
skin.
