Basic oils (oil carriers, basic oils, base oils, transport oils) are vegetable oils that are used in aromatherapy to dissolve essential oils, as well as for self-use.

Since the essential oils in pure form cannot be used, the base oils are used to create aromatic oil mixtures to care for skin and body, hair and massage. Dissolving essential oils, vegetable oils transport them through the skin.

Basic oils are not a shadow of essential oils, but a completely independent product having its characteristics, properties and purposes. With their help, you can care for the skin of the face, neck, chest, use as daytime and night creams, as a means for removing makeup, basics for face or hair masks, strengthen nails.

The basic oils are required by its value: the most valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids, triglycerides, waxes, phosphatides, lipochromes, tocopherols and the entire spectrum of vitamins "from A to U". Due to the composition of these oils, these oils strengthen the biological membranes of skin cells, stimulate metabolism and regeneration, have an antioxidant effect. Vegetable oils increase the skin's ability to retain moisture. No matter how paradoxically, the basic oils dissolve the deposited secrets of sweat glands, remove dirt, dust, cosmetics from the skin surface.

Typically, basic oils are obtained by cold pressing from nuts, seeds, fruit and grain bones. There is also an exception - the oil of manna de tatiti - it is obtained by the anflerage of flowers in coconut oil.

Naturally, the quality of basic oils should be high and you can only buy them from proven firms that do not use various chemical or other additives to reduce cost.

Some vegetable oils that can be used as the basis of the mixture can be bought at the grocery store. But you need to carefully look at the label: the oil should be cold pressed (preferably the first - Extra Virgin) and without additives. Refined and deodorized oils as a result of heat treatment lose a large number of useful substances, so it is better to refrain from their use. The main thing is not to use mineral oil for aromatherapy targets. It does not contain component beneficial components and can be a source of allergies.

Store basic oils need in a cool, dark place. It is advisable not to leave for a long time open, because under the influence of air the oil is oxidized and become unsuitable for use.

Basic oils are a complex mixture of fatty acids, washed and unlimited fractions.

Fatty acids are divided into saturated and unsaturated. If fatty acids predominate in the composition of oil, it will be solid at room temperature. The larger the oil of unsaturated acids, the more softer. When unsaturated acids begin to prevail, the oil will be liquid. Special attention should be paid to the content of oleic acid (it refers to so-called fatty acids mononhenate). When it is dominated, the oil absorbs well into the skin and the penetration of other active ingredients (for example, essential oils) is enhanced. Not much attention is paid to unsaturated fatty acids: linoleic, linolenic and gamma-linolenic acid, as well as their derivatives. The fact is that they are not produced in the human body, so they are called indispensable unsaturated acids. Linoles and gamma linolenic acid are called omega-6 acids. Oils with a large content of these acids are recommended for dry skin with impaired barrier properties. Vegetable oils that contain linolenic acid and its derivatives, recommend people who suffer from various skin diseases due to anti-inflammatory properties. Some linolenic acid derivatives have bulky and long names that are difficult to pronounce, and for simplicity they are called omega-3 acids.

The washydrated fraction is fatty acids that are connected to glycerin. This fraction is responsible for the appearance and oil properties. If you add an alkali to the washydrated fraction, you can get soap.

The unwinding fraction is responsible for regenerating properties, which is useful for aging skin. It usually includes carotenoids, vitamin E, phytosterols and other biologically active substances. It happens that, in the production of cosmetics, only a unlimited oil fraction is used (the unlimited fraction of olive oil is particularly popular). When connected to the alkali, this soap fraction does not forms.

When using vegetable oil in cosmetics, irptinability of oil and its spreadability are important characteristics. If the skin of the skin is absorbed bad, it will create a feeling of oily skin. But if the oil is absorbed quickly, it may be comedynogenic. If the oil is poorly spread, it is bad to host the skin. Therefore, mixtures of several oils are usually used, which ensure the optimal ratio of these two parameters.
