YOUR FEEDBACK IS NEEDED!!
You will see below that we are trying to make the order process easier for you.
We need your feedback as to What you think of the New "Item Order" Formatting?
In our past version (as you can see with the Sweet Almond oil), You have to click on an arrow, highlight
and select the size bottle you would like to order and order on each size and "add to cart" individually.
You also have to enter the quantity of bottles too. For most folks this is fine if you only want one bottle and one size.
NOW in the New version (you can see that on the rest of the page) you will see "ALL" the sizes listed
and a "quantities box" in front of each size available. Here you will simply enter the number for the quantity of
bottles of each of the listed sizes that you would like to purchase, then click the "ADD to Cart" button. This makes it easier for you to
order especially if you want a 2 oz and 8 oz of that particular oil.
Please answer and fill out the questionaire - if you ordered Items from this page.
The questionaire will be seen as you are going through the "Check out process"
or you can type in the comments section there too.
Thank you for your Feedback. Al and Penny

You will need to use an emulsifying agent when you use Aloe Vera Liquid with essential oils

Since Aloe Vera Liquid is water based, not oil based it won't blend with oils
without the use of an emulsifier.
NOTE: Although this is the Juice from the Aloe Vera plant - it is not for use in human consumption.
(You cannot drink this as it is not processed in a food processing plant, it is not packaged for human consumption).
It is for use in skin care and massage therapy.

There is not a true Aloe Oil as the Aloe plant produces very small amounts of oil
making it is cost prohibitive to manufacture.
However you may find companies that claim to have an Aloe Vera Oil.
Please note that it is Aloe Powder that is mixed with Almond or another such carrier oil.
We now carry an Aloe Vera Powder in Oil blend. See the Next Product listing below.

EMULSIFIER |
|
Emulsifier
What is an emulsifier?
This is to be used whenever you need to mix water and oil. It is naturally derived
from coconut oil.
Add your essential oils to this emulsifier and then add to water or water based
products for use in skin treatments and massage. Mix well.
How much to use ?
We are asked this question many times. Because each essential
oil has different viscosity you will have to experiment a little. Generally
you may need to add one drop of emulsifier to every 1-3 drops of essential
oil before adding to the water or water based product. It all depends on the essential oil.

Polysorbate 20 is Non-irritating. and is great to be used when making Body Mists and Room Sprays, Linen Sprays or whenever you need to emulsify the water and oil together so that there is no separation.
Typically you will blend Polysorbate to Essential Oils in a 1:1 proportion. You will want a bit more polysorbate to EO if you find that the blends are not staying emulsified.
