Clove is more than a seasonal spice in your kitchen cupboard. This ingredient is a centuries-old health and beauty treatment commonly used in traditional beauty rituals.
Metta Murdaya, co-founder of JUARA, says:
"Cloves are an aromatic spice with a host of beauty benefits. For thousands of years, we've used cloves to treat acne, supporting skin health, and calming skin irritation. It even works wonders for toothaches!"
The benefits of clove for skin include treating acne, reducing signs of aging, calming irritation, fading acne scars, and soothing toothaches. Clove oil is antibacterial and antimicrobial, rich in compounds like eugenol that promote glowy, healthier-looking skin.
When it comes to treating your skin right, it can be hard to know where to begin. Like everyone else, you likely struggle with your fair share of skin concerns.
One of the most challenging parts of any skincare journey is finding the ingredients that help your skin. Unfortunately, there are countless beauty products on the market that are made with harsh chemicals. These products can often damage your skin instead of healing it.
That's why it's so crucial to find ingredients that support and nourish your skin.
Clove isn't just a simple seasoning hiding nonchalantly in your kitchen cupboard. This toasty spice has been used for centuries to treat a variety of health and skin concerns.
Because cloves are rich in antibacterial and antioxidant properties, they're a perfect natural acne treatment. Unlike many over-the-counter acne treatments, clove oil is a natural alternative that won't dry or irritate the skin.
Plus, it has amazing anti-inflammatory properties that can effectively combat an acne-causing bacterium known as Staphylococcus aureus, which often contributes to those pesky pimples you may have.
Acne can often leave your skin red and swollen. Clove essential oil also contains a large amount of a compound called eugenol, which can help ease the irritation that comes with acne. These anti-inflammatory effects are also quite agreeable to those with sensitive skin or acne-prone skin.
You can safely apply clove essential oil directly to your skin. However, be sure to use diluted clove oil, as its concentrated form can cause burns. Mix it with a carrier oil such as coconut oil or jojoba oil to provide your skin with a bit of additional moisturization.
Clove oil is a potent antioxidant, so it's great for removing free radicals from your skin. With this spice in your arsenal of skincare ingredients, you're well on your way to blemish-free skin!
(If you enjoy the acne-fighting abilities of clove oil, try tea tree oil! Tea tree oil is also known for its ability to support clear skin and fewer breakouts.)
Whether you like it or not, wrinkles and fine lines may eventually appear on your skin. If you're looking to manage these changes in your skin, there's no better ingredient for your skin than clove oil.
Clove essential oil is known for its ability to reduce skin sagging and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Plus, it's able to boost blood circulation in your face, further improving your skin tone and appearance.
That's why it's a key ingredient in the Radiance Complex Plumping Serum from JUARA.
After just four weeks of using this turmeric-rich, anti-aging serum, over 90% of users said their skin felt and looked smoother. A further 84% saw and felt firmer and brighter skin after four weeks of use! This serum truly is the best way to ward off premature aging.
Thanks to the vitamin C-rich radiance complex in this natural treatment, you'll be able to enjoy supple, bright, and healthy skin for a long time. This radiance complex is carefully formulated with natural elements like clove flower, turmeric, and green tea, which all create a powerful blend of botanicals that are able to plump and soften your skin.
Plus, this serum is made with smoothing palm peptide, firming golden bamboo, and exfoliating tea extract.
It truly has all you need in order to help your skin regain its youthful glow.
#3. For Treating Scars
If you struggle or have struggled with acne, you likely know the challenge of both treating pimples and leftover scars. Luckily, clove oil is able to do both while leaving your skin much healthier.
Clove oil is able to reduce the appearance of blemishes, dark spots, and scars that have been left behind by acne. Because it has minor exfoliating properties, it can easily remove dead skin cells clinging to your skin's surface.
For an easy at-home treatment, all you need to do is mix one teaspoon of coconut oil or another carrier oil with two or three drops of clove essential oil. Apply a light layer on your acne marks or scars and leave it on overnight as a patch treatment. Be sure to patch test before to check for any adverse reactions, especially if you have sensitive skin.
In the morning, rinse your face with water to wash off the treatment. You can repeat this procedure daily or as you see fit for your unique skin type.
You can use this same recipe as a spot treatment for anything from insect bites to dry skin.
#4. For Calming Skin Irritation
Especially as the weather changes, you might suffer from dry, itchy, or irritated skin. Unfortunately, many beauty products can end up making it all worse instead of better!
Luckily, natural remedies like clove oil are great for soothing and calming your skin. Anything from redness and inflammation to dark spots and blemishes can be helped! Clove oil can not only ease skin irritation but also protect you from harmful UV radiation.
For an ultra-soothing skincare routine, combine clove oil with almond or coconut oil. These natural oils help hydrate dry skin and even skin tone, leaving your face glowy and happy!
#5. For Tooth Health
Did you know that clove oil can benefit more than your skin? Your teeth can reap the rewards of clove oil, too!
There are many natural toothpastes that list clove as a key ingredient. That's because clove extract has many antibacterial and antiseptic properties that help promote oral healthcare.
It's used to mitigate bad breath, to whiten teeth, and to prevent tooth decay. On top of that, a 2016 study found that clove oil was effective at inhibiting cavity-causing organisms.
Final Thoughts: Clove Oil for Face & Skin
What is clove good for? A lot!
Clove oil is full of essential nutrients, antimicrobial properties, and antibacterial properties that can help you achieve the healthy and glowing complexion you deserve. And it's easy to incorporate it into your daily skincare rituals - so long as you have the right products!
The skin benefits and health benefits of clove oil go beyond the five we've listed. Just a few drops of clove oil can support radiant and glowing skin. Don't forget to try other ways to experience this aromatic spice, such as clove tea or clove water!
Clove oil is made by distilling the dried flower buds that are harvested from clove trees. These trees are native to Molucca Island of Indonesia and are a popular ingredient in herbal medicine, like Jamu wellness rituals and even Traditional Chinese Medicine. This aromatic spice is often used in skincare and beauty products, including our very own Radiance Complex Plumping Serum.
What Are the Side Effects of Clove Water on the Face?
When used in low or moderate concentrations, clove water and oil are safe on the face. If you experience any burning or itching, it's a good idea to cease use because your skin may be having a reaction. Always perform a patch test before applying clove oil to the skin.
How Can I Use Clove Oil Safely on My Skin?
Clove oil can be slightly irritating if applied directly to your skin. We recommend using skincare products that feature clove as an ingredient - that way, you get the benefits of clove oil alongside the benefits of the skincare product itself, without the potential irritation.
Do Cloves Tighten Your Skin?
Yes, clove can help tighten and balance the skin, thanks to its antioxidant protection and antibacterial properties.
Can Clove Water Fade Dark Spots?
Yes, clove oil and clove water may help reduce the appearance of dark spots and blemishes. They can also help promote skin regeneration, which helps with signs of aging, too.
