While essential oils can provide numerous benefits to the skin, it’s vital that you combine these with one of the many carrier oils available for safe use and added advantages. Organic carrier oils provide the necessary enhancements in addition to offering clean skincare choices.

Benefits of Using Carrier Oils

Carrier oils are used to dilute ingredients, such as essential oils, to make them safe to apply to the skin. Additionally, these oils provide an effective consistency for your homemade skincare products either alone or mixed with another carrier oil. Used on their own, carrier oils also provide unique qualities to keep your skin in the best condition possible:

• Nourishment
• Regeneration
• Healing
• Balance

Quality Organic Carrier Oils from Better Shea Butter

Our natural skincare products are created using organic plant-based materials. Choosing organic ensures that your product will be free from hazardous chemicals such as those found in pesticides or certain plant fertilizers that might be harmful when absorbed into your body. Whether you choose to use one of these oils on their own or as a base to carry other ingredients, we offer a range of types to suit the needs of your specific skin type or condition.
