What makes
Copaiba different
from Black Pepper
or other essential
oils high in
caryophyllene? Copaiba is high in the sesquiterpene caryophyllene, which is also found in Clove, Black
Pepper, Melissa, and several other essential oils. However, it is the breadth of its benefits that
make Copaiba a unique essential oil. Like Black Pepper, it is effective as a surface cleaner and
has high value as an antioxidant, but probably Copaiba’s most researched and valued property
is its benefits to your skin. Along with supporting overall health and having the ability to reduce
the appearance of minor skin blemishes, there is evidence to suggest that topical application
of Copaiba may have biological activity in supporting health at the cellular level and in tissue
remodeling. Try adding a drop or two to your skin moisturizer to boost its soothing and health-
supporting benefits, and enjoy the distinct woody aroma.
I am so excited
about the new
Rose Touch! What
are some of your
favorite ways to
use it? We are all excited about the newly released Rose Touch, it will provide an opportunity for
many more people to experience this amazing and rare oil. The best thing about it is that the
pre-diluted application model provides the perfect combination of Fractionated Coconut Oil
and Rose essential oil to deliver the most benefit while minimizing waste. Rose is one of the
best essential oils for skin health and it only gets better when combined with the amazing
emolliating benefit of Fractionated Coconut Oil. My wife carries around a bottle of Rose Touch
in her purse to use throughout the day for moisturizing and to apply directly to minor skin
irritations, and sometimes she just likes to pop the cap and smell the relaxing aroma.
In a daily use
model, how would
Blue Tansy benefit
me? The most distinct characteristic of Blue Tansy essential oil is its concentration of bicyclic
sesquiterpene chamazulene, which provides its blue-violet color, but it also contains several
more commonly known constituents such as the monoterpene, sabinene. In a daily use model,
Blue Tansy is great for skin care as experimental research has shown that chamazulene has
a multitude of skin health benefitting properties. Sabinene rich oils have been reported to
reduce the appearance of blemishes and chamazulene can be soothing. Add Blue Tansy to
your lotion or daily skin toner, and don’t be alarmed that it will change the color. For a soothing
massage, try diluting it in Fractionated Coconut Oil and combining with a few drops of
Lavender or Helichrysum and massaging into shoulders and neck.
