Essential Oils & Uses
WHAT IS AN ESSENTIAL OIL?

Used throughout history for their medicinal and therapeutic benefits, essential oils can be used as natural alternatives in holistic self-care practices.

They are 100% pure aromatic extracts and contain no artificial ingredients and are tested to be free of contaminants such as pesticides or other chemical residues. They are undiluted so you can experience all of the benefits.
