Choose Herbal Oils by Benefit

Arnica Oil for Bruises, Sore Muscles and Massage

Extra-strength Arnica oil is a popular choice for visible bruising, sore or tired muscles, post-workout body care and massage. Our 1:2 Arnica oil provides a richer botanical concentration than many commonly sold 1:5 or 1:10 Arnica oils while remaining easy to spread over the back, neck, shoulders, arms and legs.

Calendula and Chamomile Oils for Dry, Delicate-Feeling Skin

Calendula oil and chamomile oil provide gentle-feeling emollient care for dry, rough, weather-exposed or delicate-feeling skin. Use them in facial oils, body oils, massage routines, balms, salves and other moisturizing skin-care products.

Immortelle, Rose and Moringa Oils for Mature-Looking Skin

Immortelle oil, rose herbal oil and moringa leaf oil add nourishing emollience to dry, mature-looking or dull skin. They help improve moisture retention, softness, suppleness and the appearance of rough or dehydrated texture.

Burdock and Moringa Leaf Oils for Hair and Scalp

Burdock root-and-leaf oil, burdock root oil and moringa leaf oil are popular for scalp massage, pre-shampoo treatments, hair masks, dry ends and beard care. Compare the carrier oils and botanical concentrations to choose the most suitable texture for your hair.

Ginger and Turmeric Oils for Warming Body Care

Ginger root oil and turmeric root oil are distinctive botanical extracts for warming-feeling massage blends, post-activity body care, foot care, balms and spa-inspired routines.

Sandalwood, Rose and Chamomile Oils for Aromatic Massage

Sandalwood herbal oil, rose herbal oil and chamomile herbal oil combine botanical skin conditioning with characteristic natural aromas for massage oils, body oils and relaxing personal-care rituals.

What Is an Herbal Oil Extract?

An herbal oil extract is made by extracting oil-soluble botanical constituents from flowers, leaves, roots, bark, wood or other plant material into a fixed carrier oil. The finished product combines the moisturizing and spreading qualities of the carrier oil with the botanical profile of the selected plant.

Herbal oil extracts are also called herbal infused oils, botanical oil infusions, macerated oils or botanical oil extracts. Because the botanical concentration and carrier-oil composition vary, review the ingredient list, extraction ratio and specifications on each product page.

Why the extraction ratio matters: A 1:2 herbal infusion has a different botanical-to-oil relationship than a 1:5 or 1:10 infusion. Comparing the ratio helps you understand the product’s concentration, value and flexibility for direct topical use or blending.

Herbal Oil Extracts vs. Essential Oils

Herbal oil extracts and essential oils are different botanical ingredients. An herbal infused oil contains plant material extracted into a fixed carrier oil and has an emollient texture suitable for skin care, hair care, body oils and massage.

An essential oil is a highly concentrated volatile aromatic ingredient usually obtained through steam distillation, hydrodistillation or citrus pressing. Essential oils generally require careful dilution before topical use, while many herbal oil extracts are supplied in a ready-to-use or easily blended oil format.

How to Choose the Best Herbal Oil

• For visible bruises, sore muscles and post-activity massage: Choose extra-strength Arnica oil.
• For dry or delicate-feeling skin: Compare calendula oil and chamomile herbal oil.
• For dry or mature-looking skin: Consider immortelle oil, rose herbal oil or moringa leaf oil.
• For hair, scalp and beard care: Compare burdock root oil, burdock root-and-leaf oil and moringa leaf oil.
• For warming body and massage routines: Explore ginger root oil and turmeric root oil.
• For aromatic body and massage care: Choose sandalwood herbal oil, rose herbal oil or chamomile herbal oil.

Compare the Carrier-Oil Base

The carrier oil affects texture, glide, absorption, color and overall skin feel. Check the complete ingredient list to determine whether the carrier base suits your facial, body, hair, scalp or massage routine.

Consider Natural Color and Aroma

Herbal extracts naturally vary in color and botanical aroma. Darker or strongly colored oils may be especially useful for targeted body care, massage, rinse-out hair treatments, balms and salves. Lighter extracts may be easier to incorporate into facial oils and leave-on products.

Herbal Oils for Personal Use and Cosmetic Products

Use the appropriate herbal oils directly as instructed, combine them with compatible carrier oils, or add them to facial oils, body oils, massage blends, scalp treatments, hair masks, beard oils, balms and salves.

Cosmetic makers can also use herbal oil extracts in compatible oil-based and emulsified products. Review the botanical name, plant part, carrier base, concentration, color, aroma and intended benefit before selecting an oil for a finished product.
