How Essential Oils are Made

Essential oils unleash the healing powers of plants. They can be used for relaxation, healing, fragrances, and even to clean the house. There are a few ways that essential oils can be extracted, but the most common and effective process is distillation. Distillation uses steam to pull the essential oils out of the plant matter so it can be packaged for use in beauty products, skin care, and more.
