What are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts, typically derived through distillation or cold pressing. This process preserves the natural aromatic compounds, producing potent oils known for their distinct scents and therapeutic qualities. From lavender’s calming fragrance to invigorating citrus notes, each oil boasts its own unique profile.
At Aluxury®, our essential oils are responsibly sourced and rigorously tested, so you can experience the pure essence of nature in every carefully bottled drop.
The Benefits of Essential Oils
When used mindfully, essential oils can complement daily self-care rituals and support overall wellbeing through their aromatherapy properties. Many people find that certain scents help promote relaxation, reduce stress, and encourage restful sleep. Others harness the uplifting properties of particular oils for focus and mental clarity.
Incorporating aromatherapy oils into your routine may enhance your mood, nurture your skin, and enrich everyday moments with beautiful natural aromas. At Aluxury®, we’re passionate about helping you discover the transformative power of essential oils—let nature’s gifts inspire your journey towards a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.
How to Use Essential Oils
Essential oils can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, making them a versatile addition to any wellness or beauty routine.
For a soothing atmosphere, add a few drops of your chosen natural oil into an oil burner a waterless diffuser or electric diffuser. If you prefer a more personalised approach, try blending essential oils into massage oils or lotions for a spa-like experience at home.
Always dilute essential oils with a suitable carrier oil, such as fractionated coconut or sweet almond, before applying them directly to your skin.
Whether you choose to diffuse, inhale, or create custom skincare products, proper dilution and responsible usage are key to maximising their potential benefits.
- Recommend diluting the application to the skin by using just a few drops per teaspoon of carrier oil.
- Certain oils can cause photosensitivity, so avoid direct sunlight for several hours after use.
- Keep oils away from eyes, ears and other sensitive areas, as well as children and pets.
- Do a small patch test before widespread use to check for any skin sensitivity.
