Class Overview
This was one of the very first foundational classes taught at Stillpoint—
and it’s still one of the most essential.
Aromatherapy and the Skin explores how oils, hydrosols, and carriers support the body’s largest organ—not just symptomatically, but energetically, emotionally, and structurally. You’ll learn the science of skin and the spirit of skin, and how to approach common pathologies with confidence and reverence.
Whether you’re a formulator, a practitioner, or someone who’s been trying to heal your own skin intuitively, this class offers grounded knowledge, energetic context, and a deeply compassionate lens.
What You’ll Learn
Anatomy of the skin (epidermis, dermis, hypodermis + absorption pathways)
How essential oils interact with skin on a physical and vibrational level
The most skin-friendly (and skin-irritating) chemical families
Penetration enhancers and skin permeability principles
Dilution ratios by age, condition, and application method
Therapeutic support for:
Psoriasis, eczema, rosacea, acne
Hives, herpes simplex, warts, cold sores
Wrinkles, scars, diaper rash, athlete’s foot
The emotional and energetic roots of skin issues (insecurity, protection, shame, anger)
How to address trauma held in the skin using oils, hydrosols, and touch
Practical recipes, carrier oils, and formulation techniques for safe topical healing
Self-selection principles and resonance-based approaches to formulation
Why Now
The skin is where our inner world becomes visible.
It’s the place where inflammation, trauma, grief, and imbalance often rise to the surface—asking to be seen, held, and healed.
In a world obsessed with appearances, this class returns you to the truth:
Skin is a communicator. A boundary. A record keeper.
When you tend it wisely, it becomes an ally.
This is the moment to learn what your skin—and your client’s skin—is really trying to say.
Why This Class Is Being Retired
This class was one of the first taught in Stillpoint’s digital lineage.
It laid the groundwork for how we teach: precise, intuitive, science-rooted, and soul-deep.
But as we evolve, some teachings need to complete.
This class has done its job—and this is its final return.
It will not be offered again in this form.
The energetics, the insights, the formulations—it all lives in this transmission.
If the skin has been whispering to you, this is your moment to listen back.
