Can you get rid of yor wrinkles forever? The answer is no. Even a facelift will eventually begin to fall, because aging progresses. So what's a wrinkle fraidy cat to do? Prevent and Correct.
Prevention is the ultimate way to control wrinkling and contain the damage. This means, staying out of the sun, no smoking and keeping your skin well hydrated because dry, tight skin leads to wrinkles!
Essential oils and carrier oils can help hydrate your skin. Carrier oils known to deflake dry skin include borage oil, evening of primrose oil and grapeseed oil. Jojoba oil is an excellent choice for acnetic and oil skin. Essential oil of frankincense is an excellent oil to rejuvenate the skin along with rose geranium and sandalwood. Toss in a drop or two of lemon essential oil and you skin will brighten up.
Correction of wrinkles is possible of couse (and its all temporary!) with Botox and other neurotoxins. Not everyone wants to go this route. You can try exfoliation techniques to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with microdermabrasion and mild chemical peels. At home you can make yourself a sugar scrub using the absolute of orchid oil. Contact us at Omstonearomas@yahoo.com and we can blend specifically for you!

Aromatherapy for your Lifestyle
No matter where you live these days life is hectic and stressful. There is the faltering economy, fewer jobs, fewer contacts with people and electronics all the time anytime. Kids are attached to little Ninetendo computers they carry around. After school its Wii.
We are bombarded by information and it seems like none of it is good. Lots of "must do's" fill the airwaves. Must have breakfast, must have less than 6 ounces of protein, must work out like 10 times a week -- where on earth are we supposed to get the time, let alone the money? The expectations are high.
Can't even get away from it all at work -- that is for those of us who have work. Many employed people are performing jobs that used to be done by two or three people. No complaining allowed. There's no time or money for a vacation. Not to mention college tuition, and parents who may not be well.
It all takes it toll on diet, exercise, outlook and emotions. UrbanOm (http://www.omstonearomas.com/) was created to help urban and suburban dwellers find relief. These edgy products address stress, insomnia, focus and our environment. They are preblended with the finest essential oils sourced from reliable markets. Like OmStone Products, they are insured. The collection includes five products:
Clean - Environmental, concentrated, all natural mutlipurpose house cleaner. Antibacterial and antimicrobia.
Shape (Up) - a silky body lotion infused with lemon and sweet orange wedded to spearmint, revives flagging energy, promotes an interest in exercise and curtails appetitie.
Sleep - Melissa (lemon balm) hydrosol, a potent essential oil which relaxes the nervous system, and leads sandalwood and lavender in the battle against insomnia. It is thought that Melissa mimics the actions of benzodiazopenes - commonly used sleeping pills. This mister scents your bedroom, pillow, pajamas and body. Evening use only.
Focus- Restless? racing thoughts? focus can calm your racing thoughts and stimulate your mind. Key ingredeient is grapefruit which is a nervine as well uplifting. Simply apply gel to bottom of feet or temples or wear as a personal scent.
Focus 4 Kids - Ages seven years and older. Our aromatherapist earned a Master of Arts degree in Education. Mandarin, is the pivital oil, which is used to calm hyperactivity in kids.

Lavender Fatigue
Oops! I've gone ahead and said it. Lavender Fatigue. Do you have it? I certainally do. It is probably the most over used oil I've come across.
Yes, its chemical properties make it a popular oil. Its calming and disinfecting and nice for linen closets and your unmentionable drawer. Its good for the skin. Its got a gentle aroma. Yet not only is it over used, it is used for people who really don't understand this oil and think it smells good with mint or that it is excellent and calming for babies.
Lavender is not good for everyone. Those with estrogenic based cancers should not use lavender products. My thoughts are that pregnant women and nursing women should not use essential oils and I would not use them on babies. I am always surprised when people who say they would never, never vaccinate their kids, start plying them with oils and herbs from a very early ages. Vaccinations are at least regulated. Essential oils are not.
In any case, although I myself like lavender combined with oils such as eucalyptus radiata for massage or bath salts, or even with peppermint, I think it would be nice for those of us in the aromatic world to venture out and try other oils that may offer up some new scentsations!
How about palmarosa? This gentle oil has a rosy, slightly grassy scent, which is calming and excellent for skincare. The oil is well priced and offers up a whole new world of blending possiblities. There's also grapefruit, which is calming and gently stimulating and it can add a devine scent to your laundry. There's sexy patchouli the scent of the 70's. For other floral scents there is ylang ylang, heady but seductive.
So next time you are thinking up mixing up an interesting synergy leave out the lavender and explore new options.
