About this product
Carrier oils, which are also called as base oils, are types of oils that are being used to dilute another type of oil that is called the essential oil. It is important to mix carrier oils with essential oils because the latter can be too concentrated when applied to skin undiluted. Therefore, before you can even use essential oils for aromatherapy and massage, you first have to dilute them by adding the carrier oils.
Carrier oils also require a specific method of growing since they have to be as pure as possible. This is most applicable when you are going to use carrier oils for therapeutic purposes. You have to make sure that the carrier oils that you use are organically grown-not artificially grown wherein chemicals have already been applied-and cold pressed. Always remember that carrier oils are being mixed with essential oils for aromatherapy (which of course involves the human skin) so they are going to be absorbed by the human body. Therefore, it is important that the oils you use are organic and pure so that there will not be any unwanted substances that will be absorbed by the skin along with these oils.

About the Author
Hi, I'm Lindsey P. I am a proud wife and stay at home mom. After my first child was born, I started to focus on the ingredients used in our everyday health and beauty products. The more and more research I did, the more nervous and upset I became towards companies and their lack of care towards consumers. Fast forward two years, shortly after having my second child, I was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer. During my fight against this disease, I began researching possible causes. I soon began to learn just how many harmful ingredients were not identified on product labels. I vowed once I recovered to share my knowledge through my newly established company producing all natural products, that include soaps, balms, bath salts, etc etc. My books are intended to not only educate, but also to share the knowledge and passion that I have gained through my struggles over the last few years. I hope you enjoy my books. Happy reading!
