Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts made from leaves, flowers, roots, resins, and peels. For generations, women have used them to soothe skin, calm the mind, clean their homes, ease sickness, and support natural wellness. Each oil carries its own scent, purpose, and benefits.
Whether you’re making cleaners, beauty products, diffuser blends, or simple remedies, essential oils give you a powerful, all-natural toolkit. This page is your A–Z guide. Click any oil to learn what it does and how to use it safely.
⚠️ Safety & Warnings
Essential oils are strong extracts and must be used carefully. Always dilute before applying to skin using a carrier oil like coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond. Do not ingest essential oils; many are toxic when swallowed.
Keep away from eyes, broken skin, children, and pets. Some oils may irritate skin or cause sun sensitivity. Use caution when diffusing around babies, pregnant women, or animals.
Start slow, dilute well, and treat essential oils with respect—they are powerful plant medicine.
