What Is a Carrier Oil?
A carrier oil is a neutral, skin-friendly plant oil that “carries” a few drops of essential oil onto your skin. It reduces the risk of irritation and helps the oil absorb evenly. Choosing the right one matters for both feel and shelf life.
The Best Carrier Oils
Jojoba
Technically a wax ester, jojoba closely mirrors skin's own sebum, absorbs cleanly, and has a long shelf life. An excellent all-purpose choice. Browse jojoba oil on Amazon.
Fractionated Coconut Oil
Light, odorless, and stays liquid — ideal for roller blends and massage because it does not stain and rinses out easily. See fractionated coconut oil.
Sweet Almond & Grapeseed
Affordable, widely available, and great for body blends. Almond is nourishing; grapeseed is lighter and good for oily skin.
Make Your Own Roller Blend
The easiest way to use oils on the go: fill a 10ml roller bottle with carrier oil, add a few drops of your chosen essential oil, and roll onto pulse points. Start with our pure single oils in the aromatherapy collection.
