THE LONGER ANSWER
During a very carefully executed distillation process, essential oils are extracted from leaves, flowers, seeds, roots and resins. The unique combination of harvested plants with scientific processes ensures essential oils retain 100% purity. An entire rose bush might only produce a single drop of essential oil during distillation, creating highly concentrated oil. In a careful process of boiling fresh plants, steam is captured and transferred to a container. Essential oil slowly separates from the water and is extracted for bottling. Although most are clear liquids, some essential oils have a warm amber coloring such as Roman Chamomile and Patchouli. Only the essence of the plant is caught in our bottles, making the aroma and usage more potent and remarkably, more beneficial. Imagine smelling a vibrant garden of roses in a single breath and that’s what you’ll find in Edens Garden Rose oil. The unique combination of harvested plants with scientific processes ensures essential oils retain 100% purity.
What’s the difference between our core essential oil products?
Single Oils
Our Single Oils are pure concentrated oil from one specific plant. These oils are undiluted. Each variety has unique properties and an individual smell. From Lavender to Lemon and Tea Tree, browse the product pages to see the niche benefits each boasts.
Synergy Blends
Synergy Blends take our Single Oils and combine them into mixtures that target specific uses or aromas. For example, our Age Defy blend is great for nourishing mature skin, while our Sleep Ease blend is targeted for getting your best ZZZs. Our blends target everything from cellulite to stress to pain.
Carrier Oils
A Carrier Oil or base oil is a vegetable oil commonly derived from nuts, seeds, and kernels. Use a carrier oil to dilute our concentrated Single Oils and Synergy Blends before applying them topically on your skin. Or use the Carrier Oil on it’s own in lieu of moisturizer, bath oil, or makeup remover.
Roll-Ons
To make your life easier, we started making pre-diluted products that are ready to use out of the bottle! Roll-ons take our most popular Single Oils and Synergy Blends and dilute them with our Carrier Oil for easy topical application when you’re on the go.
