• Try these Top 5 Essential Oils for Aromatherapy

    Aromatherapy is derived from the ancient practice of using natural plant sources. The most popular way to reap the benefits of these plant sources is through extraction. 

    Thousands of years ago, Egyptians utilized aromatic herbs for healing, spirituality and cosmetically. They are credited with creating a useful extraction method for collecting plant oils. Today, manufacturers use steam distillation and cold pressing extraction to create Essential Oils.

    Cleopatra was one of the first renowned women to use herbs and oils for beauty purposes. She used Almond Oil for her skin regiment and various natural fragrances for her perfume. Since then, the use of essential oils has become widespread for a host of health & beauty purposes.
