CARRIER OILS
“Carrier oil” is a term often used in the context of aromatherapy, cosmetics, and body care recipes. In simplest terms, “carrier” oils—also sometimes called “base” or “fixed” oils—are neutral oils (they have little to no scent) that are used to dilute essential oils and “carry” them into the skin. In other words, they make pure essential oils safe for use and facilitate their absorption. Carriers can also be lotions, aloe vera gel, witch hazel extract, etc. Carrier oils are usually vegetable oils like coconut oil, avocado oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, etc. made from the nuts, seeds, fruit, or kernels of a plant. On their own, carrier oils contain a variety of skin-nurturing vitamins and nutrients and are excellent at absorbing the additional benefits of infused herbs and essential oil blends. This makes them a perfect vehicle to bring customized benefits to your skin. The constituents in the botanical source of a particular oil, as well as the refinement process (or lack thereof), impact its quality, color, viscosity, and speed of absorption.

ESSENTIAL OILS
Essential oils are concentrated compounds extracted from aromatic plants to capture that plant’s scent, flavor and natural benefits. You’ll find these highly potent compounds in a plant’s seeds, flowers, bark, roots, leaves, stems, rinds, fruit and resin. As an example, in citrus fruits, essential oils are found inside the peel. There are many who also see essential oils as the essence of a plant, the purest distillation of nature’s living energy. These oils have enhanced lives for thousands of years, with new uses and benefits still being discovered today. Within the plants they’re extracted from, essential oils create that plant’s signature scent along with other benefits. To enjoy these concentrated effects—the benefits of essential oils—you can apply them topically (typically added to other carrier oils, creams and lotions).

HOW THE OILS ARE MADE.
COLD-PRESSED
(mainly for carrier oils)
The process involves mechanical or natural extraction. Usually, the clean nut, seed, fruit, or vegetable is ground into a paste and then simply pressed to separate the oil from the pulp. Temperatures are rigorously controlled with this method to ensure they do not exceed 80-90°F. This helps the oil maintain its natural state and beneficial constituents.
This is a process that involves separating a substance into its constituent parts based on its boiling points or volatility. This delicate and time-sensitive process requires the correct environment and careful attention to detail in order to protect the integrity of the essential oil’s complex chemical profile. The benefit of steam distillation is that it yields oils that are exceptionally clean and pure. It also allows for collection of temperature-sensitive compounds that may be damaged or altered by other collection processes.
