Carrier oil, also known as base oil or vegetable oil, is used to dilute essential oils and absolutes before they are applied to the skin. They are so named because they carry the essential oil onto the skin. Carrier oils do not contain a concentrated aroma, unlike essential oils. There is a range of carrier oils each with its own individual properties and suitability for different treatments in aromatherapy. Infused oils are a combination of carrier oil and various herbs. True carrier oils are generally cold-pressed vegetable oils.
