I tried using the search engine but had some problems finding the answers.
Hopefully someone can help me.
I have the aromessence ylang ylang oil and essential balm. I read somewhere which said that the oil and balm should not be used together.
I read the instruction and it says the oil should be used in the morning and the balm at night.
If that's the case, should I apply the oil before I apply my moisturizer in the morning.
And for the balm, should that be the last thing I put on my face at night?
TIA ![Smile](images/smiles/smile.gif) |

Yes you are correct. Just use a few drops of oil or you will have a shinny face. Just sweep the balm over your face at night and do not use the oil |

Lola Moroney - Thank you. Last time I had used the oil and balm together at nite and woke up to a few blemish. Since than I haven't used the products at all. I'll go and give it another try.
The oil is good for combo/oily skin but when I applied it in the morning, about 1 hour my face is so shiney. I wonder if it's because of the sunscreen. Oh well, I'll try it again.
Thank you again. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/biggrin.gif) |

how much oil are you useing qisme615? I turn the bottle upside down onto three fingertips, rub my fingertips together to heat up and emulsify the oil and then sweep over face...I'm thinking maybe you are applying too much oil if you are shiny after a full hour...??? |
