Unwind, rejuvenate, and find your zen with our collection of essential oils at Holland & Barrett.

 

Essential oils are highly concentrated extracts derived from various plants, through methods like steam distillation, water distillation or cold-pressing. Each small bottle captures the plant’s essence, making them ideal for use in aromatherapy and more. 

Whether you’re looking to calm your nerves, enjoy a better night’s sleep or sharpen your mind and boost your productivity, pure essential oils can offer just that. 

 

How to choose essential oils

If you’re an aromatherapy lover or just embarking on your aroma journey, it can be tricky choosing an essential oil. 

Each oil can have their own specific properties, alongside their fragrance, so understanding what you want out of your oil is the first step to choosing the right aromatherapy oil for you. Here’s a quick guide to some of our most popular oils: 

  • Lavender: a floral, herby fragrance
  • Peppermint: a bold scent for a pick-me-up
  • Eucalyptus: a clean, almost medicinal fragrance
  • Lemon: a bright, uplifting scent reminiscent of a summer’s day
  • Tea Tree: a fresh and clean yet woody scent
  • Can’t pick? Check out our most popular essential oils to help you choose.

     

    Scent your home with your favourite fragrance

    Wondering how to use essential oils? Aroma diffusers and oil burners are the easiest and most effective way to harness the power of your chosen essential oils. However, you can also mix them with a carrier oil to massage onto the skin, or even pop a few drops onto a tissue to inhale during the day.

    FAQs
    How are essential oils made?

    There are a few ways essential oils are made. The main methods are:

  • Steam distillation
  • Expression (or cold pressing)
  • Solvent extraction
  • CO2 extraction
  • Are essential oils safe to use?

    Yes, essential oils can be safe if used correctly, but it’s so important to use them with caution and follow the instructions listed on their packaging. 

    Some top safety tips include:

  • Always dilute: never apply undiluted essential oils directly to your skin. Dilute them with a carrier oil like coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond oil.  
  • Patch test: before using a new essential oil, perform a patch test on a small area of skin to check for any allergic reactions.  
  • Avoid sensitive areas: avoid applying essential oils to sensitive areas like the eyes, nose, and ears.  
  • Consult a healthcare professional: if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying health conditions, consult with a healthcare professional before using essential oils.  
  • Quality matters: purchase essential oils from reputable brands to ensure purity and quality.  
  • Storage: store essential oils in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. 
  • How do you dilute essential oils?

    To dilute your essential oils, you’ll need a carrier oil. Carrier oils are usually vegetable oils, like coconut oil, grapeseed oil or jojoba oil and they help to reduce the potency of essential oils to make them safer to use on the skin. 

    Always make sure you do a patch test before using on your skin and stop using them if you experience any discomfort. 

    How do you make your own essential oil blends?

    Lots of essential oils complement each other and make wonderful blends. To make your own, you can simply add a few drops of each oil into your diffuser. This is a great way to create your own unique scent.

    Some essential oils that pair well together include:

  • Lavender and bergamot
  • Lemon and tea tree
  • Frankincense and orange
  • Bergamot and black pepper
  • Are essential oils safe for children and pets?
    Pets and young children, particularly those under the age of 2, can be more sensitive to essential oils, so it’s best not to use them when they’re around.
