Our hand blended Winter essential oil blend has been carefully curated with pure essential oils that evoke the aroma of a fresh forest in Winter. Utilising Lavender, Frankincense, Sandalwood and Cedarwood pure essential oils - Winter Blend is an uplighting and harmonious blend that works well in an oil burner, vapouriser to create a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere in any space.
For massage, The Green Store recommends mixing your essential oils with a carrier oil. This way, you dilute the powerful properties of the essential oil and can apply it just like you would a moisturiser. Examples of carrier oils are coconut, jojoba, avocado, grape seed or sweet almond oil. The Green Store also sells Sweet Almond Oil (food grade) in bulk so you can bring a container in and use that as a carrier oil or even in your cooking.
The Green Store would never suggest putting any pure essential oils undiluted on your skin, there are aromatherapy brands that advocate this but it should be remembered that oils are the purest liquid form of a plant and can cause burns, pigmentation (when exposed to sunlight) and scarring. Even if you do not have sensitive skin or allergies we always recommend doing a patch test.
