Also known as cedar oil, cedarwood oil is a derivative of a range of cone-bearing (or coniferous) trees. It is known to regulate the production of natural body oil; thus maintaining moisture balance, while fighting acne. It even prevents premature aging of the skin; as its astringent property keeps the skin firm, tightens enlarged pores; while the skin’s elasticity is enhanced. A cedarwood oil massage helps increase the body’s metabolism while also bettering blood circulation. This helps in lowering of water retention and cellulite; thus effective in weight management. Its tranquilizing effect further helps in reduction of stress and anxiety; while promoting sleep. Moreover, this oil is also beneficial in relaxing strained muscles and easing joint and muscle pain.
