What is a carrier oil, and how is it used together with essential oils?
Because essential oils are incredibly concentrated, they
should almost always be diluted in a carrier oil, specifically when used
topically.
Carrier oils dilute the essential oils and help “carry” them
into the skin.
Here are some of the added benefits you will get from using Mekis Grape seed oil as a carrier oil

Adding your own oil can counter that, especially grapeseed oil, which contains natural conditioning agents that work from the inside out to add luster.
Plus, for a temporary shine boost, oils coat each strand, letting the light bounce off your hair.
