Why is it important to have our essential oil products blended with carrier oils of sweet almond, macadamia and wheatgerm?

Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts, often containing potent chemical compounds.  We use a blend of high quality carrier oils of sweet almond, macadamia and wheatgerm oils that help prevent skin irritation, redness, or burning which can lead to sensitization.  Our special blend of carrier oils has different concentrations of these 3 wonderful ingredients with sweet almond being the major component.

This helps to distribute the oil more evenly across the skin, improves absorption through the skin by slowing down evaporation.  It also helps make them more effective and economical for skincare and therapeutic use.

Sweet Almond oil has emollient properties which make it suitable for sensitive, dry and irritated skin.  It has a light texture which is ideal for facial oils and baby care products and is rich in Vitamin E and antioxidants which supports skin elasticity and healing.  Also contains Vitamin A and Vitamin B (especially B1, B2, B6).

Macadamia oil is high in palmitoleic acid, which mimics the skin’s natural sebum, promotes skin regeneration and hydration and is suitable for mature and dry skin types.  Also contains Vitamins A and Vitamin B (especially B1, B2, B3, B6).

Wheatgerm oil is extremely high in tocopherols (Vitamin E) which makes it a powerful antioxidant, helps in skin repair, improves elasticity and reduces scarring.  Its rich texture is well suited for targeted treatment or dry skin formulations.  Also contains Vitamin A, Vitamin D and Vitamin B (especially B6 and also folic acid which aids in skin care and maintenance).

So when you are needing help with pain relief, swelling or help with fluid and applying our products such as be relieved, be sport or be lite to the skin know that there is so much more included in their ingredients and that a great deal of thought has also gone into how they are absorbed into the skin and the many benefits.
