Carrier oils also referred to as base oils or vegetable oils are used to dilute essential oils, CO2s and absolutes before applying to the skin. They \u201ccarry\u201d the essential oil onto the skin.\u00a0 Different carrier oils
\noffer different properties and the choice of carrier oil can depend on the therapeutic benefit being sought.<\/p>\n

Carrier oils are generally cold-pressed vegetable oils derived from the fatty portions of the plant.<\/p>\n

Unlike essential oils that evaporate and have a concentrated aroma, carrier oils do not evaporate nor impart their aroma as strongly as essential oils.<\/p>\n

\n

\nCaution for using ANY and ALL carrier oils:
\n<\/strong>
\nIf pregnant or under a doctor\u2019s care, ALWAYS consult your physician before using essential and carrier oils.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
