Quality of essential oils


If you have a lot of experience it is possible to determine the quality of an essential oil by their scent. But if we find a scent strange it could be that it is not because of the purity, but because of the origin of the oil or that you are "immature" knowing about them, or because you have a lack of experience… The truth is that the falsifications can only be identified by a certain science such as by the means of a chemical analysis.

Complementary information

Always try to buy essential oils in pharmacies or businesses that specialize in natural cosmetics or natural products, because there you will be able to find better advice. You may also find that the personnel that assist you may not always know enough about the quality of the products

It’s important to read the information that is on the bottle and on the price list: the more complete the information is, the more you will be able to trust their truthfulness and in the quality of the product.

Carrier oils with fatty oil

The oils for the skin and massages need fatty oil in the carrier oil, as that of sweet almonds or that of jojoba. Also it is necessary to choose products that are of best quality to avoid allergic reactions in the skin.

- Acquire only oils that are 100% pure and without preservatives.

- It is preferable that the oils are obtained by the cold pressed method and those immersed come from plants of biological cultivation.

- The fatty oils are not preserved indefinitely, so it will be important to pay special attention to the date of expiration.
