Geranium essential oil added to a carrier oil like jojoba or sweet almond or emu oil, is a normalizer for oily-type skin. Damp skin absorbs oils better & you need only a few drops rubbed between your fingers & gently spread out on your face. Let it absorb & gently blot any excess with a thin tissue by pressing the tissue on your face & lightly peel it off, like you would a powder sheet. Shiseido makes great blotter sheets for mid-afternoon oil-slick relief. Yes it works. Use lavendar e/o for dry or damaged-by-the-sun skin.
