It is also known that using a moisturiser infused with this oil can treat fungal infections and skin infections.

To make sure that all of the oils are fully combined, give it a gentle shake. Cleanse the face and pat it dry so that it is still little damp to the touch before using this blend. Next, gently massage 6–8 drops into the face after warming them up by rubbing them between your palms.
