Essential Oils

What are essential oils?

Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts derived from steam distilling or cold-pressing flowers, stems, leaves, bark, roots, seeds, or other parts of a plant. Dr Yufang Lin, MD, from the Center of Integrated Medicine explains. “Plants are made of structural materials and phytochemicals. These chemicals have properties that not only benefit the plant but benefit people, too”. Because of the large amount of plant material that it takes to create the extracts, essential oils can be powerful botanical medicines. (For example it takes around 250 kg of the lavender plant to make just 1 kg of lavender essential oil).

Essential oils embody the unique essence of a plant. Elizabeth Ko, MD, medical director of the UCLA Health Integrative Medicine Collaborative explains that “essential oils are quickly absorbed by receptors that are linked to the limbic system, which controls heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and stress. Each plant’s essence has a different chemical makeup that affects its smell, absorption, and effect.”

The use of essential oils and botanical extracts has experienced a new wave of mainstream popularity in the last few years, but their natural benefits and healing potential is not something contemporary. The known benefits of these plant extracts date back as far as 4500-6000 BC when Egyptians harnessed these powerful oils not only as beauty treatments but to create tinctures, salves, resins, and ointments to be used in medicinal treatments and spiritual ceremonies too.

Why choose essential oil aromas over synthetic fragrances?

We create our body care products with the inclusion of essential oils and botanicals, instead of synthetic fragrances or perfume. We do this for three main reasons:

  1. Because organic and natural botanical extracts do not contain any chemical, toxic or synthetic ingredients and align with our clean, pure, and plant-based brand mission
  2. Because organic and natural botanical extracts contain more than just scent, they contain additional healing benefits for skin, hair, beauty and overall wellness
  3. Because organic and natural botanical extracts as aromas simply smell better than imitating perfumes
What’s the difference? Essential oils and botanical extracts are derived from plants for a multitude of benefits. Synthetic ‘fragrances’ or ‘perfumes’ are an unknown mixture of undisclosed ingredients created purely as a scent and can be found in most mainstream beauty, cleaning, and household products. Many brands that encourage green washing will replace an essential oil known for its unique benefits with a synthetic imitation of the oil and still call it ‘natural’ or ‘aromatherapy’. Be sure to read your ingredients listings to clarify.
