Question

I would like to inquire about the Essential Oil products from your shop on the page https://www.myskinrecipes.com/shop/53-natural-essential-oils: 1. Are these products 100% pure (meaning they contain only the specific raw material without other additives)? 2. Can these Essential Oils be used in an aroma diffuser and for making Essential Oil roller blends, similar to the example shown at https://www.hgtv.com/design/make-and-create/home-arts/diy-essential-oil-roller-blends?

Answer

Essential Oil Purity and Usage

Regarding your questions about the Essential Oils from MySkinRecipes:

  1. Purity: Products listed under the "Essential Oil" category are generally considered pure, meaning they contain only the volatile aromatic compounds extracted from the specified plant material without other additives. This distinguishes them from fragrance oils, which are often synthetic or blended. For specific confirmation on any individual oil, checking the detailed product description is recommended.
  2. Usage: Yes, essential oils are commonly used in aroma diffusers for aromatherapy purposes. They can also be used to make essential oil roller blends. When making roller blends for skin application, it is crucial to dilute the essential oil with a suitable carrier oil (such as fractionated coconut oil, jojoba oil, or sweet almond oil) at appropriate dilution rates to ensure safety and prevent skin irritation.
