...dry or normal skin.
Decleor Aromessence Ylang Ylang is a blend of 100% natural and pure essential oils - Ylang Ylang, geranium, rosemary, and hazelnut plant oil. The oils (especially the geranium) are chosen for their purifying and regulating properties. left in their oil form instead of being mixed with an emollient they are more easily absorbed by the skin so a little goes a long way.
In this case, just three drops is all thats needed.
Decleor ... ...free if you have a Decleor outlet near you ( I dont ) and I really would recommend trying it out this way before paying full price.
After using it every night for the first week, I now use it just two or three times a week as "maintenence", this of course makes it more economical so maybe the price isnt that bad after all :) ...

Advantages: soothing and rebalancing; beautiful smell Disadvantages: not cheap
...of cleanse tone and moisturise, Decleor adds a fourth step to their skincare programmes, before moisturising you add the teeniest bit of an aromatherapy oil to provide intensive benefits. Now it can seem a little strange to put an oil on a greasy skin, but 'oil' is perhaps a misleading term here. These are blends of concentrated aromatherapy oils, there are four different ones, and the ylang ylang (it contains many other ingredients besides that ... ...oily and problem skin. It's not cheap but you can usually get a sample from the salons that sell it to try it out before you commit to a purchase. The full size looks tiny (it's also a very elegant bottle), but should last about six months; you do only need literally one drop. ...

Advantages: Purifies and balances, smell, long-lasting Disadvantages: Initial cost
Easy-absorbing facial oil designed to be used under Decléor facial balms and creams, as well as providing a direct aromatherapy treatment to the face, it also assists the absorption of those creams and/or lotions applied on top. Decléor offer a range of oils used depending upon skin type, and Ylang Ylang (purifying concentrate) is aimed at those with oily/combination skin.
Although it seems counter-intuitive to add an oil to oily/combination skin, ... ...help rebalance the skin. After having used this for 2-3 years, I have reached a point where the balance of my skin is much, much better overall. Now, I use this particular oil less frequently and have moved across to another oil that is more suited to normal/balanced skin. I bring this back out of the cupboard for the weeks when I'm stressed at work and my face is knocked out of whack.
The smell of the aromessences are gorgeous (unsurprisingly), ...

Advantages: really does help oily/blemished skin Disadvantages: none
Departement stores can be dangerous places. The amount of times I have gone to the West End and forked out hundreds of pounds on skincare, only to find when I get it home that it is complete rubbish, is unreal. Thus I had that reluctant 'do I really need this?' feeling when i purchased Decleor's Aromessence Ylang-Ylang oil. The lady behind the counter sympathised with my oliy skin problem and told me that this product would be the difference maker ... ...rather exotic oil I paid £30. I just hoped it was worth it.
The oil is actually a blend of other plant ingredients as well as Ylang-Ylang which is what I believe makes it so effective. And yes, I too thought there is no way I can put an oil on to an oily skin, but was told that the product would rehydrate my skin, thus keeping excessive oiliness at bay.
AM and PM after cleansing and toning, you must put no more than three drops on to the skin. ...

...hyperpigmentation) I started using decleor ylang ylang after seeing demostrations of the decleor neroli oil (funnily enough) on QVC and after reading reviews and product recommendations, I decided that the Decleor Ylang Ylang would be best for my oily acne prone skin.
For the past seven moths I have been using 3 drops of the ylang ylang oil evenly distributed over my face (using the rain drop movements) after cleansing and underneath my moisturizer ... ...natural and has a very soft aroma which I personally find very soothing. You really only need a tiny ammount and I suspect on occassion I have gotten a little carried away! This is a waste as this stuff is not cheap (though worth every penny!)
The effect that the Ylang ylang has had on my skin has been incredible. Basically skin recognises oil and even though it seems counter intuitive to add oil to already oily skin, the ylang ylang oil has the ...

Advantages: helps to balance oily and blemished skins Disadvantages: expensive
This product from Decleor is essential oil based and contains ylang-ylang, bay, geranium and rosemary essential oil blended in a hazelnut carrier oil. This product is suggested as an effective treatment for oily or blemished skin, it helps to balance the oils in the skin. I was given a 5ml sample of this oil about 5 weeks ago and there is still some left as only three drops are applied to the skin both morning and night. There has been an improvement ...

Advantages: Great smell Disadvantages: Not great for combination skin
This would be a great product for very oily skins but can be a little drying for combination skins, as hard as that is to believe from an oil! After using this as directed everyday for a month I found that my skin had developed dry patches in certain areas but was oil free. What I tend to do with it now is to just use it on the t-zone if my skin is feeling particularly oily and it calms it down within a couple of days. The oil will last for ages ...
