Making Essential Oils Work For You

The uses of Orgenic essential oils, derived from plants, are not limited to mere perfumery. Aside from endowing us with pleasant perfumes, the essential oils are used in cosmetics, food essence, hair conditioners, fabric conditioners, detergents, aromatherapy, extenuating depression and eradicating stress and fatigue etc.

Extraction and Production:


We have studied in chemistry that essential oils can be produced by four methods: Steam distillation, hydro-distillation, solvent extraction and carbon dioxide extraction. We also know the advantages and disadvantages of these various methods. Steam distillation uses steam to extract the oil therefore the subtle fragrant molecules are very likely to get damaged. Hydro-distillation uses boiled water; it is therefore gentler than the former method. In solvent extraction process, the quality of the oil or absolute directly depends upon the quality of solvent used. In CO2 method, no steam or solvent is used, and the extracted oil is an outcome of the pressure exerted by natural CO2 upon the plant material.
