  • Carrier Oil Guide
    CARRIER OIL GUIDE 1 RAE DUNPHY AROMATICS CARRIER OIL GUIDE INTRODUCTION Essential Oils are extremely concentrated and should always be diluted prior to use on the skin. This is commonly done by diluting them in a carrier oil (also known as a base oil). These oils are usually created from cold-pressing vegetable matter, seeds or nuts. Cold- pressing involves temperatures of 60C and below, so the desired chemical compounds are largely unaffected. We recommend using high-quality carrier oils that have been cold- pressed so that they retain the desired vitamins and nutrients. Refined oils will have components that deteriorate quickly removed to give them a longer shelf-life however, this process will also take out some of those desired chemical components as well. All carrier oils are perishable, so it is important to store them away from light in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration is recommended to extend shelf life. There are three main categories of base oils: Basic Fixed Oils - These oils are light, pale and have little aroma. These properties make them great for use on the face and body neat. Examples: Sweet Almond & Grapeseed Macerated Oils – These oils are best described as plant extracts as they are created by adding chopped up parts of the plant to a large vat of carrier oil. This mixture is agitated and then exposed to sunlight, allowing the fat-soluble nutrients to transfer to the oil. The mixture is then filter of all the organic matter. Examples: Carrot & Calendula Specialist Fixed Oils – These oils are darker, thicker and heavier.

  • Carrier Oils & Dilution
    CARRIER OILS & DILUTION by Akiko Yamada Plant Essence Apothecary What is a carrier oil? Carrier oils are vegetable oils with little-to-no scent that are used to dilute and carry essential oils. In carrying essential oils into your skin, carrier oils do dilute the potency of the oil. However, this does not mean that the oil is any less effective. Rather, it means that essential oils better absorb into your skin because it does not evaporate as quickly. Dilution is also necessary for certain “hot” essential oils, and always a good idea when using any oils with children or for those with sensitive skin. When in doubt, always dilute. CARRIER OILS & DILUTION Choosing a Carrier oil Chooseing a carrier oil can be overwhelming because there are so many different types you can use. Keep in mind that it is best to use a carrier oil that is 100 % pure, unrefined, virgin, and cold-pressed. This way, the essential oil’s chemical profile is preserved and the oil is easily dissolved. Otherwise, the carrier oil has the potential to change the results or specific benefits you desire. Substances like butter, vegetable shortening, and petroleum jelly should not be used as carrier oils because they do not absorb into the skin at the needed level. Here are a list of things to consider when choosing a carrier oil; 1. Odor: A few carrier oils have a slight distinct odor. When added to an essential oil, it may alter the aroma. 2. Skin type & Comedogenic scale: Highly comedogenic oils can clog pores.

  • Carrier Oils
    Carrier Oils Carrier or base oils are often applied in conjunction with an essential oil. The common industry term for carrier oils is fixed oils. These oils are made from vegetables, nuts, or seeds and often have therapeutic properties of their own. The carrier oils used in therapeutic settings should be cold pressed rather than produced or processed by chemical methods. This is an important distinction, as some of the carrier oil will be absorbed into the body along with the essential oil. Some of the more common carrier or base oils are: almond, grapeseed, sunflower, olive, jojoba, safflower, apricot, avocado, borage, carrot, coconut (both fractionated and whole), corn, evening primrose, wheat germ, and arnica. Carrier oils are used for several different reasons. One major reason is because pure essential oils are often too concentrated to be applied undiluted to the skin. Adding essential oils to a carrier oil also allows the oil to be spread over a larger application area and to be absorbed more evenly. Many essential oils are quite expensive, and because they are so highly concentrated, one or two drops may be all that you need. The use of a smaller quantity of essential oil is often more beneficial than a larger quantity and is certainly less likely to cause any type of reaction. It is usually more beneficial to apply an oil more frequently—every 4 hours or so—than to apply more at the same time. My husband explains one of the needs for carrier oil when using essential oils in this way. Imagine putting an alcohol-based primer on hot asphalt prior to painting it.

  • Carrier Oils in Dermatology
    Archives of Dermatological Research (2019) 311:653–672 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00403-019-01951-8 REVIEW Carrier oils in dermatology Ané Orchard1 · Sandy F. van Vuuren1 Received: 26 March 2019 / Revised: 24 June 2019 / Accepted: 4 July 2019 / Published online: 18 July 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Wounds are a common medical infiction. With the increase in microbial resistance and a shift of interest towards comple- mentary medicines, essential oils have been shown to be benefcial in suppressing microbial growth. However, in practice, essential oils are more often diluted into a base due to the risk of topical adverse efects, such as dermatitis. There is a lack of collated evidence-based information on toxicity and efcacy of carrier oils. The current information on the subject matter is restricted to generic, aroma-therapeutic books and pamphlets, based on anecdotal evidence rather than an experimental approach. Therefore, this review aimed at identifying the recommended carrier oils used in dermatology and thereafter col- lating the scientifc evidence to support the use of carrier oils together with essential oils recommended for dermatological use. Aloe vera gel had multiple studies demonstrating the ability to enhance wound healing; however, several other carrier oils have been largely neglected. It was observed that the extracts for certain plant species had been used to justify the use of the carrier oils of the same plant species. This is an inaccurate cross assumption due to the diference in chemical composi- tion and biological activities. Lastly, despite these carrier oils being recommended as a base for essential oils, very little data was found on the interactive profle of the carrier oil with the essential oil.

    Smells –unconscious component in our behavior Pizza-smell is added to the air conditioning of shopping malls to put you in the mood to visit the restaurants. “Ok, sweetheart, you look bored. Let’s have a bite before we continue.” The “new car “ smell is used just before you take a test ride in a used car dealership. You feel much better than in your old warthog that smells like food and burnt oil. Cake-baking aroma is spread in the kitchen of a house by the real estate agent or owner who wants to sell it. Perfume is used by guys & girls to draw attention or suggest a highly cultivated lifestyle. Garden stores can smell like fertilizer or like flowers. Which one will sell better? Hospitals & waiting rooms can have the aseptic smell of of carbolic acid or the distracting smell of flowers. A female perfume would be really irritasting! Smells –unconscious component in our behavior Odor greatly affects our evaluation of things and people. Only 20 % of the perfume industries income comes from perfuming humans, 80 % comes from ‘perfuming” the things of our daily life. Anosmia or the loss of the ability to smell leads to depression and a life where you recognize your food just by the taste alone; salty, bitter, hot , cold, sweet. Also your sex drive disappears. What? … Already the ancient Greeks “healed” sex offenders by cutting off their …………. Noses! Why are the noses of many ancient statues broken. Do they all represent sex offenders ? Oh my .
