Carrier Oils
are vegetable, nut or seed oils used to dilute and "carry" essential oils
for use on the body. It is recommend that you always dilute essential oils
with a carrier oil before using on your skin. The vast majority of essential
oils are too concentrated to be used directly on the skin. Diluted in a
carrier oil, they can be massaged or rubbed directly on the skin. |

|

Evening Primrose is high in gamma-linolenic acid (an essential fatty
acid) making it an exceptionally nourishing oil. The human body does
not produce essential fatty acids such as linoleic and linolenic
acids therefore it is important to get these nutrients through diet
and skin care products. Essential fatty acids inhibit bacterial
growth and allow our systems to defend against infection and
inflammation. This oil is highly recommended for dry skin problems. |

Grape Seed Oil (Vitis vinifera) is an
ecologically sound product that is made from the seeds of grapes
after the wine is pressed. Grape Seed oil is high in vitamin E and is
76% essential fatty acid, linoleic acid (also known as Omega 6). It
is low in saturated fat, contains natural chlorophyll and valuable
antioxidants (known as proanthocyninidins), and has a good shelf
life. Very rich in vitamins, minerals and linoleic acid. It's a
light and penetrating oil for massage. It’s also used in lotions,
balms, creams, and soap. The skin absorbs it easily; it has no
perceptible odor. Since it is slightly astringent, it tightens and
tones the skin. Will not aggravate acne. This is one oil that is
nearly impossible to extract through cold pressure due to its very
low oil yield. |

amber seeds inside the hips contain an oil high in essential fatty
acids, GLA, and vitamin C. This cold-pressed, refined oil contains
between 30% and 40% gamma linoleic acid (GLA) which has valuable
uses in treating skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis. Can be
used as a carrier oil with very small amounts of essential oils
added, as a massage oil, or added to other vegetable/nut oils as
part of a blend. This oil reduces scarring, heals burns, and softens
scars and keloids. It can help diminish broken capillaries, but may
also aggravate acne or blemished skin. The application of
rosa mosqueta oil produced rapid
healing of the inflammation, darkening and dermatitis caused by
radiation. This is the best antiaging oil to use in skin care.
However, it may turn rancid quickly and should be stored in a cool
place or refrigerated. The oil is pale yellow in color. As with all
natural products from plants, the color and aroma of this oil may
change from batch to batch. |
