Lavender is nicknamed the “swiss army knife” of essential oils due to its versatility. It’s so popular that it is one essential oil that most people know. doTERRA has made Lavender Touch–the Touch line is simply a pre-diluted roll-on version of their most popular oils, ready to use topically!
Why do you want diluted oils?
Dilution simply means that the essential oils has a carrier oil along with it. This is not necessarily a bad thing. Lavender Touch, and other pre-diluted oils (the Touch Line of oils) are properly diluted in a ratio that maximizes absorption and efficacy. When essential oils have a carrier oil, like with Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO), it actually helps the oil to stay on your skin longer & get absorbed into your body systems, rather than having the essential oil (aromatic compounds) quickly flash off or evaporate.
