Basics
Essential Oils are derived from plants, barks, flowers, and leaves. They have long been known for their incredible aromatherapy, medical and magickal purposes.
Essential oils should never go on the skin neat (not diluted) except for Lavender and Tea tree. Essential oils can be diluted with any carrier or vegetable oil.
I always use one or more of the following carrier oils in each blend:
Grape Seed, Sweet Almond, Sesame, Apricot, Rose Hips, Primrose, Jojoba.
Each blend should always be kept in a dark container, tightly sealed and out of direct sunlight.
Oils should be used within 6 months of creation date. This is why we create each oil once it has been ordered. Of course, if you store it in a refrigerator it will last longer!
