Carrier oils are used to dilute and deliver active ingredients, like essential oils, vitamins, and botanical extracts safely to the skin.

Plant-based carrier oils be extracted from nuts, grains, seeds, fruit and berries.

Plant-based carrier oils do more than carry actives, they’re rich in beneficial fatty acids, antioxidants, and nutrients that nourish, soften, and support the skin.

Each carrier oil has its own unique properties, making them versatile ingredients for nourishing dry skin types.

Gentle and non-irritating, carrier oils are ideal for daily use in facial oils, cleansers, and body care.

Plant-based carrier oils are rich in nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants that have benefits for your skin.

The nutrients of carrier oils include:

• Essential Fatty acids
• Squalene and squalane
• Vitamin E - tocopherols and tocotrienols
• Vitamin K - phylloquinone
• Carotenoids
• Phytosterols
• Polyphenols

Carrier oils are emollients - they give skin a soft and smooth appearance, restoring suppleness and improving elasticity.

The function of emollients in skincare is to soften the skin, help the skin retain its moisture and to support the skin’s barrier function.

Emollients:

• Make your skin feel soft and smooth
• Help reduce flaking and roughness from dry skin
• Help assist the skin barrier by filling in gaps between cells
