Loving beauty is natural for women, but each age group has very different skincare needs. Aromatherapist Mei-Chih Chen offers tailored essential oil and hydrosol formulas based on the concerns of women aged 18 and up, helping you achieve beauty from the inside out! 

🔹Ages 18&ndash35: Youthful Stage
Academic and work stress, frequent makeup, and staying up late can lead to an oil imbalance and acne.

• Anti-acne: Tea tree essential oil (diluted to under 5%) can be applied topically.
• Scar treatment: Helichrysum essential oil (diluted 5&ndash10%) helps fade pigmentation.
• Hydration: Neroli hydrosol compress balances oil production and soothes emotions.

🔹Ages 36&ndash50: Mature Stage
Family and work stress, along with hormonal fluctuations, may cause sagging and dull skin.

• Pre-sleep relaxation: Diffuse petitgrain essential oil + practice meditation for better sleep.
• Soothing and moisturizing: Lavender hydrosol compress + lavender essential oil bath for stress relief.
   

🔹Ages 50+: Menopausal Peak
Facing hormonal imbalance and &ldquoheat-up&rdquo body types, skin tends to become dry and wrinkled.

• Anti-aging glow: Damascus rose hydrosol applied daily for 10 minutes.
• Deep nourishment: Full-body oil bath with babassu oil or rosehip oil for hydration and healing.
