Your Skin Speaks. Learn Face Mapping with Essential Oils for Holistic Skin Health
According to ancient healing traditions, your skin isn’t just a surface - it’s a map, a messenger!
Your skin reflects the inner health of your organs—especially during the heat of summer. If breakouts, dullness, or irritation seem to visit the same areas again and again… you may be receiving a gentle nudge from within.
Enter Face Mapping Wisdom
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic marma point theory, face mapping teaches that each zone of your face corresponds with a vital organ system:
Forehead – Liver + Gallbladder
Cheeks – Lungs
Below Nose – Heart
Temples – Kidneys + Galbladder
Chin & Jawline – Digestive + Reproductive System
Summer sun, heat and indulgences can overwork these systems—leading to inflammation, breakouts, or sensitivity in their corresponding facial zones.
What Can You Do?
Radiant skin begins with inner balance and botanical allies that support from the inside out.
Here are some powerful essential oils to integrate into your skincare + self-care ritual:
🪷 Liver/Forehead – Lemon, Helichrysum, Geranium
→ Add to a carrier and massage into forehead or temples to support gentle detox + clarity.
🌬 Lungs/Cheeks – Eucalyptus, Silver Fir, Lavender
→ Inhale or dilute + massage along cheeks to support breath and emotional release.
💖 Heart/Nose – Rose or Rose Water, Ylang Ylang
→ Apply to the chest or scent your day with Rose water - softens the heart for that glow from inside.
💦 Kidneys/Temples – Geranium, Cypress, Blue Chamomile
→ Great in a facial steam or temple massage for clarity + fluid balance.
🌿 Digestion/Reproductive (Chin/Jawline) – Sweet Marjoram, Clary Sage, Fennel (Digest Ease Blend)
→ Massage along jawline or pair with abdominal massage to soothe deeper tension.
