Essential oil

Welcome to the enchanting world of essential oils, where the scents of nature come together with therapeutic powers. In this article, we dive deeper into the history, production and benefits of essential oils. Whether you are looking for rest and relaxation, skin care or natural remedies, essential oils have something to offer for every aspect of your life.

What are essential oils?

Essential oils, also called aromatic oils, are concentrated liquids extracted from different parts of plants, such as leaves, flowers, stems, bark and seeds. These oils have been used for centuries for their therapeutic properties and pleasant scents. Each type of oil has its own unique composition, which is responsible for its specific fragrance and effects.

History of essential oil

The use of essential oils goes back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations in Egypt, China, India and Greece were already applying these oils in aromatherapy, medicine, cosmetics and religious rituals. The Egyptians, for example, were known for their use of oils in mummification procedures and perfumes.

Production of essential oil

Essential oils are extracted in different ways, but the most common methods are steam distillation and cold pressing. Steam distillation is often used for flowers and leaves, while cold pressing is applied to citrus fruits, such as oranges and lemons. The process of production determines the purity and potency of the oil.

Our popular unique essential oil blends

In addition to well-known essential oils, we have also created our own unique blends. Below are our best sellers:

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is a popular use of essential oils for promoting emotional and physical well-being. By inhaling the scent of the oils, they can affect the limbic system, the part of the brain that regulates emotions, memory and behavior. For example, the scent of lavender oil can help relax and reduce anxiety.

Essential oil and carrier oil

Essential oils can be safely applied to the skin, but they should first be diluted with a carrier oil to prevent skin irritation. We use Jojoba oil for all of our Essential Oil Rollers and Refill Oil.

Jojoba oil is a natural oil extracted from jojoba seeds. It is a very suitable carrier oil because it is similar to our skin's natural sebum, so it is well absorbed without feeling greasy. It has a long shelf life and is not susceptible to oxidation, retaining the properties of other essential oils. In addition, jojoba oil does not have a strong odor, making it the perfect base for not interfering with the fragrance of essential oils

How do you use an Essential Oil Roller?

To use the Gemstone Essential Oil Roller, shake the roller lightly to blend the essential oils. Then apply a thin layer of the oil to desired areas, such as the wrists, temples or neck, and gently massage into the skin. The gem roller can also be used to apply the oil to pressure points for a relaxing effect. The combination of essential oils and the soothing action of the gemstone create a pleasant aromatherapy experience that helps you relax and enjoy the benefits of the oils throughout the day.

Precautions when using essential oils

Although essential oils offer many benefits, it is important to exercise caution when using them. Some oils can cause allergic reactions or be unsafe during pregnancy. It is essential to follow proper dosages and seek advice from your doctor if necessary.

Conclusion

Essential oils offer lots of opportunities for natural wellness and health. From relaxing aromatherapy to targeted applications, these oils have proven to have a positive impact on both body and mind.
