Diffusing essential oils is one of the simplest ways to shift the mood of a space. Whether you’re looking to create a calm atmosphere, stay focused while working, or simply make your home smell fresh and clean, it all starts with using your diffuser correctly.

Carrier oils are plant-based oils that “carry” essential oils safely onto your skin. Essential oils are powerful and much too strong to apply directly, so carrier oils help dilute them while bringing their own set of benefits to the skin. Think of them as the nourishing base that makes all of the magic happen.
