WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS?

Essential oils, also called ethereal oils, are natural aromatic substances that come from various parts of plants – stems, roots, seeds, flowers, leaves, etc. They give plants their characteristic fragrance and, in addition, they also have therapeutic and protective effects. They have a very positive effect on symptoms on the physical, emotional and mental level. 

Their chemical composition is relatively complex. Essential oils (volatile oils) are most often obtained from plants by distillation, extraction or pressing. Essential oils are highly concentrated and are applied directly to the skin only after dilution with carrier vegetable oils (almond, apricot kernel, jojoba, etc.). The only exceptions are tea tree and lavender essential oils, which you can apply directly.

Use essential oils for inhalation or in your cosmetic products; the ingestion of any essential oils of any brands is not recommended.

Essential oils are oil-soluble, so if you want to use them in products that do not contain oils and butters, use a solvent /solubilizer/.

HOW CAN I USE AN ESSENTIAL OIL?

Cosmetic and soap making – the required amount of essential oil depends on the specific formula and the quantity produced.
Inhalation, steam inhalation – drop a few drops of essential oil into an aroma lamp, diffuser, or a container with hot water.
Bath – mix the drops of oil into a base oil /coconut, olive.../, into 100 ml of milk or into a teaspoon of honey, and pour this mixture into the bathtub. Pure essential oils are not water-soluble, the drops would float on the surface.
Massage – add a few drops of essential oil to a cold-pressed vegetable oil (approx. 50 ml) and mix well. Enjoy a pleasant massage.
Sauna – you can choose from conifers, rosemary, eucalyptus, sage, mint or citrus fragrances. The number of drops depends on the size of the sauna and your preference.

Essential oils are also commonly used in skin care, local compresses, hair masks, and oral hygiene care...
