Carriers, Concentrations, Base Formulations, and Supplies

Carrier products are used to transport essential oils to the body. They must be chosen carefully to ensure they support the therapeutic goals of your aromatherapy blends. We’ll combine carriers and essential oils in specific amounts to achieve the correct therapeutic concentration making our blends safe for different groups of people. Next, we’ll concoct some base formulations like lip balms, body creams, massage oils, and sugar scrubs, and make a shopping list of blending supplies. If you’re new to aromatherapy, this folio provides important information to help you get started with effective therapeutic blending.
