This oil reminds a lot of people of the hippy era, but it has immense value in skincare and can also help fight depression and anxiety. It has diuretic properties and can help break down cellulite, whilst stimulating the regeneration of skin cells, speeding up healing and preventing ugly scars forming when wounds heal. Patchouli oil also helps relieve pain due to its anti-inflammatory nature and is often used in massage oils to help ease joint and muscle pains.

The slight cooling sensation can be irritating in sensitive regions of the body, including the eye area and mucus membranes. It also acts as a refreshing skin tonic.
