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
