Carrier Oils

Carrier oils are a fundamental component of aromatherapy, serving as a base for diluting essential oils before applying them to the skin. They are derived from the fatty portion of plants, such as seeds, nuts, or kernels. Common carrier oils used in aromatherapy include jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil, and avocado oil, among others. Each carrier oil has its unique characteristics, including viscosity, absorption rate, and nutrient profile, which may influence its suitability for specific aromatherapy applications.
