Are Absolute Aromas oils pure?
They are sold as single, undiluted essential oils rather than pre-blended fragrance products, with the botanical name and origin given on the label. Many lines are also certified organic.
Can I put essential oils straight onto my skin?
No. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be diluted in a carrier oil such as sweet almond or jojoba before any skin contact. Follow the dilution guidance on the product or from a qualified aromatherapist.
Which oils are certified organic?
A good part of the range is, including the High Altitude Lavender, Sweet Orange, Eucalyptus Globulus and Peppermint. Organic lines say so in the product title and carry the certifier's logo on the label.
Are essential oils safe to use around pets?
Not all of them, and cats in particular are sensitive to several common oils. If you have pets in the house, take qualified advice before diffusing, and never apply oils to an animal.
How should I store essential oils?
In their dark glass bottles, tightly closed, somewhere cool and out of direct sunlight. Light and heat degrade them. Stored properly, most keep well for a couple of years, though citrus oils have a shorter life.
