Experience the majesty of aromatherapy from the confines of a small bottle

experience-the-majesty-of-aromatherapy-from-the-confines-of-a-small-bottle<p>Plants are some of the world's most beautiful displays. Bright and fragrant flowers vary throughout the world, but all possess a mysterious ability to enliven the lives of those who behold them. To trace the path of a lush and strong green vine, as it surges to unknown heights is a spectacle to be seen by all. Overwhelmed by the physical allure of plants, observers are often caught unaware that further enchantment awaits within the fascinating organism.</p> <p>Essential oils represent the liquid essence of plants. Depending on the plant, these oils can be obtained through several methods, with distillation being a preferred approach. The practice is completed by steaming plants and allowing the moisture released to concentrate into a liquid. This liquid is that particular plant's essential oil, often identified by the scent of the plant of which it came from.</p> <p>Essential oils are used in countless everyday products. That refreshing scent and cool feeling you get when you use certain cosmetics, that's essential oils at work! Or the citrus smell of your favorite cleaning product, that's essential oils as well. These fragrant additions also compliment lotions, perfumes, candles, soaps and even some food flavoring. It might sound fun, but don't attempt to create your own food flavoring without expert advice. No essential oil should be consumed without professional discretion and all should be kept out of reach of children, as some products are toxic.</p> <p>Due to their potency, pure essential oils are known to be potentially damaging to packaging.
