Carrier oils are the ideal medium for diluting essential oils, especially for massage products or aromatherapy. They are vegetable-based, cold-pressed, and as unadulterated as possible. While aromatic essential oils are the attention hogs of any bath product, a carrier oil can be thought of as the chorus in a show: it boosts up the main players and contributes to the overall experience. Without it, you'd have no solid foundation. Depending on your recipe, you may wish to use a specific type of oil; they vary in their viscosity and absorption rates. These oils can also be blended together for a truly unique effect; as with all creative exploits, the possibilities truly are endless.

Castor oil, for example, is a classic; it's thick and rich, makes big bubbles when used in soap, and draws moisture to the skin like a magnet. Jojoba is also a common carrier oil; it's full of vitamin E and essential fatty acids, making it ideal for all sorts of soaps, lotions, balms, and lip products. It's especially good for delicate baby skin, so you know it's the very best for your own dry hands too. Our organic sunflower oil is also high in vitamin E, but its lightweight, non-clogging texture is perfect for all skin types.

Everyone knows that avocados are good for you; they are full of proteins, vitamins, and good fats. The creamy flesh of the avocado is also an excellent source of soothing oil; it's a perfect emollient for body butters and scrubs. If you're looking for something a little more lightweight, our apricot kernel oil is the ticket; it absorbs quickly and zaps out dryness and irritation. Plus, if you're looking for a truly blank slate, we offer a vegetable glycerin to serve as a base for soaps and lotions. It is clear, thick, and will absorb aromas and colorants very easily.
