WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS?

Substances extracted from certain species of flowers, plants, fruits, leaves, roots, and trees. There are presently over 300 different essential oils manufactured.

These are powerful substances. It’s an extraordinary fact that it takes 1,000 pounds of oranges to produce 10 pounds of pure orange essential oil!

Knowing this, we must apply the oils with care.

METHODS OF ESSENTIAL OIL APPLICATION:

Massage oil blends, home cleaning, in your bath, diffusers, on handkerchiefs or pillowcases for aromatherapy, room sprays & bug repellant. A fashionable way to walk with sweet scents in your personal aura is to sport a diffuser necklace.

Check out these aromatic beauties on our website to help you carry around your perfect oils all day long!

FYI:

• Use a Carrier Oil when applying essential oils to your skin/body. A Carrier Oil dilutes the essential oil, which is necessary for safe skin care. This is not necessary when using oils for other purposes, such as diffusers.

• Undiluted is referred to as a ‘neat’ application.

• General Oil Ratio: 1 tsp. carrier oil, per 2-3 drops of essential oil.

CARRIER OIL EXAMPLES:

• Jojoba Oil

• Coconut Oil

• Sweet Almond Oil
