How do essential oils work?

Now that you know why an organic and pure essential oil is such a wonderful and versatile product, you are probably curious what exactly they can do for your skin. It's been going on for years research done to the action of essential oils through the skin or by inhalation. When evaporating into the air, thousands of olfactory epithelial cells in the nose process the smell to the various hormonal centers in the brain. As a result, they influence your mood and tell the body how to react - so they can have a stimulating or relaxing effect.

The properties of the best essential oils differ per type of oil. The effect depends on the type of chemical composition of the plant. Examples are:

• Relieving pain
• Draining moisture
• Balancing hormonal activity
• Improving skin conditions
• Support cellular metabolism
• Antiseptic and antibacterial effect

The many different types of essential oils that we select for our organic care products add not only luxury but also effectiveness. That is why they are, for example, the foundation of all our natural soaps.
