Essential Oils

What is an essential oil?

Essential oils are the essence of a plant, a gift from the earth, distilled and prepared for you to bring the power of nature into your home.

Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.

Essential oils give a plant its scent, protect it from hazardous environmental conditions, and even assist it with pollination, among other important functions and benefits.

AROMATIC

Our sense of smell is directly connected to the limbic system in our brain, the part of the brain involved in our behavioral and emotional responses. When we inhale an essential oil, it’s beneficial medicines enter into our being immediately.

TOPICAL

Dilute you essential oils in a carrier oil or lotion. It takes 22 seconds for the molecules in an essential oil to reach the brain, 2 minutes for the molecules to be found in the bloodstream and 20 minutes for the oil to affect every cell in the body.

using essential oils internally, safely

INTERNAL

One drop of peppermint essential oil is equal to 28 cups of peppermint tea. Essential oils are very concentrated and more potent than the whole plant material. High quality oils may be taken internally, and in small amounts.

Essential Oil Purity: CPTG® Quality Testing

We can’t take all essential oils internally because so many are adulterated with impurities. When we use oils in our skincare products or when taken internally, we need to make sure they’re of the highest quality.
