Patchouli essential oil is the base note of the dōTERRA range, for anyone who loves long-lasting scents and simple skincare. It comes from the leaves of a shrub in the mint family, dried for several days before being distilled in Indonesia: a musky, earthy scent that is instantly recognisable.
It serves the skin first. One or two drops in your day cream, or directly on a problem area, give a smooth, glowing complexion and make blemishes less visible. Perfumers use it to anchor their compositions, and it plays the same role at home: blended with other oils, it makes a soft, musky cologne. In equal parts with Peppermint, on the temples and the back of the neck, it rounds off a long day.
An oil of which a few drops are enough, on the skin as in a perfume.
- Promotes a smooth, glowing complexion.
- Reduces the appearance of blemishes and fine lines.
- Soothes and cleanses the skin.
- Gives off a musky, enveloping aroma that invites calm.
