Get more out of life with essential oils

From lemon to tea tree and exotic pine essential oils, pick the aromatics that resonate with your senses. All our oils are selected for their superior quality and unadulterated purity, so when you buy from us, you can be sure you’re getting nothing but the best essential oils on the market.

Essential oils are extracts from plants made by distilling, steaming or cold-pressing different parts of the plant. Depending on the type of oil, various parts of the plant, such as the leaves or flowers, are used. For instance, the decadent perfume of rose essential oil is extracted by steam distillation of the petals.

When purchasing essential oils online, it is important to look for a high-quality product, such as those in our store, which are free from nasty synthetic ingredients. Many companies offer essential oils diluted with carrier oils or have added synthetic fragrances — meaning you won’t reap the incredible benefits.

These products may be less expensive but will not provide the same advantages as our pure, unadulterated essential oils. When using essential oils for therapeutic purposes, it is also important to consult with a qualified practitioner to ensure you are using the right oil for your needs.

We stock a wide range of the best essential oils to help you improve your well-being. The best way to enjoy essential oils is to use diffusers, which help dissipate the oils into the air, so you can inhale the natural goodness of their gorgeous scents. Select a diffuser from the vast range of eco-friendly designs and create a spa-like environment in the comfort of your home

Capturing the essence with essential oils

Essential oils are extracted from certain parts of plants, like seeds, leaves, barks and rinds — harnessing our sense of smell. That smell when you peel a mandarin or handle rosemary? That’s the essential oils you’re experiencing.

Essential oils have the potential to create positive changes in our well-being. Each has its own properties and possible benefits, and finding the right one depends on your needs and requirements. Here are a few essential oils we stock:

Lavender — Lavender oil is traditionally used for its calming properties and can promote relaxation and healthy sleep.
Bergamot — This oil can help relieve stress, address skin problems, and support the central nervous system.
Peppermint — It can relieve pain and help with digestive issues, but its stimulating and invigorating properties also make it a great oil for improving energy and concentration levels.

Tips for using your essential oils

Essential oils can be enjoyed through aromatic use (smell) or topical application (on your skin). Whether you’re using them in massages, in a bath, or in a diffuser, it’s important to remember a few things that will maximise your essential oil’s potential and ensure you’re using them correctly.

You almost always need to dilute your essential oil before using it to avoid any harsh reactions. If you’re using your essential oil on your skin, carrier oils — like coconut oil or olive oil — should be used to absorb the essential oil into your skin effectively.

Don’t ingest them or apply them internally.
