Hi,
Since acne is the result of hormones leading to excess oil secretion, faulty closing of the hair duct, and infection, oils which may help to normalize oil production while improving the condition of the skin like geranium, helichrysum, lavender, palmarosa, rosemary and sandalwood should be used.
Using essential oil treatments regulary, a sensible diet, avoiding stimulants like smoking, alcohol, tea, coffee chocolate, exercise, and fresh air often clear up this problem. The essential oil of tea tree has anti-bacterial properties whereas German chamomile is anti- inflammatory.
Acne oil: Apply a blend of 8 drops of . tea tree , 6 drops of bergamot & 4 drops of lavender in a 30 ml jojoba oil base to the skin around the pimple only in the night
The other part of your question - Skin diseases is an exhaustive subject on its own. It is needed to specify which skin disease you want to help with aromatherapy.
