A carrier oil is a type of base oil that is used to dilute essential oils and other concentrated substances before they are applied to the skin or used in various aromatherapy practices. Carrier oils are typically derived from plants and are used to "carry" or dilute essential oils, which are highly concentrated and can be irritating or even harmful if applied directly to the skin.
Carrier oils are selected based on their specific properties and therapeutic benefits, and they can vary in terms of color, texture, aroma, and absorption rate.
