3 Skincare Recipes: Acne, Rosacea Support & Aging

Woo_and_Biz-169.jpg

For today’s post I will be sharing 3 fabulous recipes from my friend Dr. Jodee Anderson, MD.

We’ll be discussing skincare for aging, rosacea and acne today but first I want to share a bit about WHY I asked for support from Dr. Jodee on this post!

Dr. Jodee Anderson had a long, successful career in Academic Medicine as a Neonatologist before becoming a Wellness Advocate with doTERRA and starting an aesthetic skincare boutique in Portland, Oregon.

She has a long list of accreditations and awards but she will tell you herself that she is most proud of her work at her boutique, Fresh Faces RX. Dr. Jodee is an amazing person and a gifted public speaker, and she is also VERY knowledgeable about the science of using essential oils for nontoxic skincare!


These are her 3 favorite skincare recipes. You’ll need:

  • A Glass rollerbottle

  • Fractionated (Liquid) coconut oil, Argan Oil of Jojoba oil (depending on the recipe!)

  • doTERRA essential oils


Dr. Jodee’s Anti-Aging Oil Recipe:

Dr. Jodee has spoken extensively on using oils for aging. She has 2 major recommendations for the face! Since the blend below is an ultra-luxurious oil blend, you might want to begin by purchasing doTERRA Immortelle, which has many of the same ingredients but is considerably more affordable.

But if you’re looking to keep making this blend again and again, purchasing and using the oils below is a great idea because you will be able to refill your roller many times, which is smarter in the long run. Either way, we highly encourage you to start using doTERRA essential oils on your face daily for aging support!

Frankincense in particular is an aging powerhouse. It supports healthy cell growth and rejuvenation. I like to apply Immortelle (which has Frankincense in it!) to my face after I exfoliate to encourage healthy cells and brighter, tighter skin.

In a 10ml glass rollerbottle, combine:

10 drops Lemon
10 drops Frankincense
5 drops Myrrh
5 drops Lavender
5 drops Rose

Then fill the rest of the bottle with Argan oil or Jojoba oil. Put the cap on and shake! Use in the morning before you moisturize and in the evening before you go to bed.

Dr. Jodee’s Rosacea Recipe:

Rosacea is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition and it often affects the face. Individuals with Rosacea often have splotchy, red and frustrating skin.

In a 10ml glass rollerbottle, combine:

10 drops Lavender
5 drops Cypress
5 drops Geranium
10 drops Myrrh (sub for Manuka)
5 drops Helichrysum

Then fill the rest of the roller with Fractionated coconut oil. Use this roller blend on your face (or other skin) at least 1x daily.

Lavender is calming for the skin and Myrrh is reparative. Helichrysum in particular helps ease redness and irritation.

Jodee’s Acne Recipe:

The oils in this blend are helpful to clear your skin and balance the oil on your face.

In a 10ml glass rollerbottle, pour:

10 drops Lavender
10 drops Tea Tree (Melaleuca)
5 drops Juniper Berry
10 drops Clary Sage

Fill the rest of the roller with fractionated coconut oil. Roll onto your face 2-3x daily before you moisturize. Tea Tea (AKA Melaleuca) is a master clarifier.
