Wondering where to buy carrier oils in the Philippines? Check out the post below.

If you are looking for stores or shops to order carrier oils in the Philippines for your DIY Essential Oil Blends and Recipes then this post is for you.

I have compiled here a list of stores and shops – both online and physical – that sell carrier oils in the Philippines. For those who are still exploring essential oils, carrier oils play an important role in reaping the benefits of essential oils for our health and well being. This is because Carrier Oils are the most common “vehicle” used to dilute essential oils since EOs are very potent and would need to be diluted. Other raw materials commonly used to dilute essential oils include Witch Hazel, Shea Butter, unscented lotions, Aloe Vera Gel and more.

Since I am no expert in this subject, let me quote Aroma Web’s information about carrier oils: “If applied to the skin undiluted, essential oils, absolutes, CO2s and other concentrated aromatics can cause severe irritation, sensitization, redness or burning or other reactions in some individuals. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential and other oils prior to topical application. The term carrier oil is derived from their purpose in carrying the essential oil onto the skin. Aloe vera gel and unscented body lotion are also commonly used as “carriers.” For the scope of this article, however, we will be focusing upon the use of natural vegetable oils as carriers.” Read Aromaweb’s full article here.
