CARRIER OILS & DILUTION

THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF CARRIER OILS. CARRIER OILS ENSURE THAT ESSENTIAL OILS APPLIED TOPICALLY ARE COMFORTABLE. DILUTION WITH A CARRIER OIL DOES NOT DILUTE THE EFFECT OF THE ESSENTIAL OILS; IT PREVENTS WASTE DUE TO EXCESSIVE APPLICATION. VEGETABLE SHORTENING, BUTTER, MARGARINE OR PETROLEUM DERIVATIVES (PETROLEUM JELLY) SHOULD NEVER BE USED AS CARRIER OILS.

WE RECOMMEND BOTH ORGANIC AND COLD-PRESSED CARRIER OILS. BE SURE TO DILUTE ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTIONS ON THE BACK OF YOUR YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OIL BOTTLE. YOU CAN FIND MOST OF THESE CARRIER OILS IN YOUR LOCAL GROCERY STORE.
