Carrier
oils are plant based fatty oils used to dilute essential oils. A good rule of
thumb is to always perform a skin patch test using 1 drop essential oil and 1ml
carrier oil. This creates a 5% solution. So, if you have 5ml carrier oil (or 1
teaspoon), 5 drops of essential oil is the maximum to maintain the 5% solution.
There are many safe carrier oils like vegetable oil, coconut oil, sweet almond
oil, grape seed oil, jojoba oil, olive oil, and other oils.
If you
have a vitamin E allergy, Jojoba oil is a great option. If you or a family
member has an allergy to nuts, please check for nut based oils in blends and
steer clear of almond and coconut carrier oils. Ingredients should be listed on
labels, however, it's always a safe idea to call the companies directly. Use
extra caution with young skin, elderly skin, sensitive skin, damaged skin,
inflamed skin, and especially diseased skin.
These
skin types absorb more oil and are usually sensitive to the potency. Topical
use of Wintergreen, peppermint, and birch should be avoided by people with
sensitive skin. Aromatic use are safe for pregnant women, but caution should be
shown with topical application, especially in the first three months. Pregnant
women should avoid the following oils: Aniseed, Basil, Birth, Camphor, Hyssop,
Mugwort, Parsley seed or leaf, Pennroyal, Sage, Tansy, Tarragon, For fans of
