Carrier Oils
Carrier oils are also known as, Base oils or Vegetable oils. Base oils are vegetable, nut or seed oils, many of which in themselves have great therapeutic qualities. Essential oils in their pure state are to concentrated to be used directly on the skin and you will therefore need to dilute them with a carrier oil, to "carry" the essential oil over your skin. Vegetable, Nut & Seed oils can also be incorporated into bodycare products and soaps.
Sesame Oil
Sesamum indicum
Sesame Oil is obtained by pressing the seeds. It is odorless, moisturizing and it blocks about 30-35% of the sun’s UV rays and is therefore used commonly in sun protection oils. A light, yet rich oil, Sesame Oil is very stable with a long shelf life. It is a wonderful massage oil that penetrates the skin easily, and provides highly nourishing care, it contains protein, vitamins, minerals, oleic/linoleic acids and lecithin. It is a great base for massage oils and is used for all skin types. Use Sesame Oil in a 10% dilution with another carrier oil.
