Essential oils are the soul of plants — powerful, aromatic extracts that capture nature’s healing energy in a single drop. When blended correctly, they can transform your skin, hair, mood, and overall wellness.
At Moops Handmade Skincare, we bring you pure, farm-sourced essential and carrier oils, extracted through gentle distillation to preserve their natural properties.
Whether you’re crafting your own face oil, hair serum, or body blend, this complete guide will help you mix essential oils like a professional aromatherapist.
These are potent plant essences that provide aromatic, therapeutic, and healing properties. They must always be diluted before use.
