  • Information

    The essential oils of ESENTIAL’ARÔMS are high-quality products, 100% pure and natural due to their selection, manufacturing and control processes.

    You have just bought an E.O.B.B.D. essential oil, meaning an Essential Oil Botanically and Biochemically Defined. This product is a 100% pure and natural essential oil obtained by steam-dragging distillation (without using chemicals for extraction) and is subject to strict quality controls. There are no added colors and they are not deterpenated, rectified nor re-distilled.

     

    SELECTION OF E.O.B.B.D. ESSENTIAL OILS

    The essential oils offered by Esential’Arôms are classified as Essential Oils Botanically and Biochemically Defined (E.O.B.B.D.). This means that each oil has been selected according to the following parameters:

    1. Plant species: all plants used are botanically classified, so we can undoubtedly inform about any plant species using the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature.

    2. Producing organ (p. o.): not all parts of the plant have the same composition, so it is necessary to choose the organ (root, seed, leaves, etc.) that, once distilled, will have the characteristic substances.

    3. Biochemical specificity (b. s.) or CHEMOTYPE: once the essential oil is distilled, it is necessary to verify its chemical composition, that will characterize its use. To check the correct biotype, it is performed an analytical control by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrophotometry.

    4. Biotype: depending on the habitat where the species grows (terrain, altitude, etc.), the essential oil composition can vary, so verifying chemotypes is essential.

  • How to use

    Skin-massage: dilute 1 drop of essential oil for 2 ml of carrier oil or similar (e.g.: add 15 drops of E.O. to 30 ml of carrier oil). Shake before use and apply to the skin. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Unless prescribed otherwise by a doctor, it is not advisable to apply it directly to the skin.

     

    • Essential oils should always be used dissolved in an appropriate excipient or carrier oil, which can also have cosmetic purposes (plant oil, macerated plant, base cream, etc.). Only some pure essential oils can be applied directly onto the skin by an informed consumer.
    • For cosmetic use, generally the proper amount of drops of essential oil to dilute in the carrier oil is about 1 drop per 2 ml of carrier oil (normal dilution).
    • It is important to ensure essential oils are properly dissolved in the carrier oil. For that, the bottle should be shaken before each use.
    • If you have never used essential oils before, we recommend carrying out a TEST*. This means applying a small amount of the prepared mixture on the inner arm and observing the reaction on the skin over 10-15 minutes. If there is no reaction, you can use the oil as needed.
    • For an optimal use of the dropper bottle, place the bottle horizontally.

     

    WHAT TO AVOID WHEN USING ESSENTIAL OILS

    • Essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin, as previously described.
    • It is necessary to avoid contact with mucous membranes, eyes and other sensitive areas (wounds, genital area, etc.). In case of contact, it is recommended to clean the area with a plant oil.
    • As a general precaution, essential oils should not be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
    • Avoid sun exposure immediately after applying essential oils, risk of photosensitization. In case of citrus essential oils (lemon, mandarin, sweet orange, grapefruit and bergamot), you should wait 6 hours before sun exposure.
    • Avoid the use of essential oils in children under 3 years.
    • Essential oils should not be injected intramuscularly or intravenously.
  • Composition

    Patchouli essential oil (Pogostemon cablin).

  • Allergens

    Free of allergens that must be declared.

  • Warnings
    1. Do not exceed the dosage stated in the how to use section.
    2. In case of accidental ingestion of essential oils (0.5 ml or more), quickly take 4 tablespoons of a plant oil (olive or sunflower) and contact the National Institute of Toxicology.
    3. Some of the components present in essential oils are allergenic. This means they can cause allergic reactions depending on individual sensitivity, and that is why we recommend a test*.
    4. Children over 3 years old should use essential oils under professional guidance by adjusting the dose according to children weight.
    5. Unless recommended by a medical professional, essential oils are not appropriate in case of chronic and ongoing medical conditions.
