FAQs

How are essential oils made?

There are a few ways essential oils are made. The main methods are:

Steam distillation

Expression (or cold pressing)

Solvent extraction

CO2 extraction

Are essential oils safe to use?

Yes, essential oils can be safe if used correctly, but it’s so important to use them with caution and follow the instructions listed on their packaging.

Some top safety tips include:

Always dilute: never apply undiluted essential oils directly to your skin. Dilute them with a carrier oil like coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond oil.

Patch test: before using a new essential oil, perform a patch test on a small area of skin to check for any allergic reactions.

Avoid sensitive areas: avoid applying essential oils to sensitive areas like the eyes, nose, and ears.

Consult a healthcare professional: if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying health conditions, consult with a healthcare professional before using essential oils.

Quality matters: purchase essential oils from reputable brands to ensure purity and quality.

Storage: store essential oils in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.

How do you dilute essential oils?

To dilute your essential oils, you’ll need a carrier oil. Carrier oils are usually vegetable oils, like coconut oil, grapeseed oil or jojoba oil and they help to reduce the potency of essential oils to make them safer to use on the skin.

Always make sure you do a patch test before using on your skin and stop using them if you experience any discomfort.

How do you make your own essential oil blends?

Lots of essential oils complement each other and make wonderful blends. To make your own, you can simply add a few drops of each oil into your diffuser. This is a great way to create your own unique scent.

Some essential oils that pair well together include:

Lavender and bergamot

Lemon and tea tree

Frankincense and orange

Bergamot and black pepper

Are essential oils safe for children and pets?

Pets and young children, particularly those under the age of 2, can be more sensitive to essential oils, so it’s best not to use them when they’re around.
