Cyprus essential oil is appreciated for its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antiviral properties by almost every skin type. Cyprus essential oil features woody and earthy tones and blends well with hydrating and anti-inflammatory ingredients in cosmetic products. It is used in various oil-based products, but essential oil should never be applied directly to the skin; always add it to a carrier oil.

Due to its sebum-regulating properties, Cyprus essential oil is particularly suitable for oily skin care. However, it can be slightly drying, so avoid combining it with alcohol-based products, retinol, or alcohol-based ingredients. The maximum recommended dosage for individual types of products can be found, for example, in IFRA standards, usually ranging up to 1%.

Use essential oils for inhalation or in your cosmetic products; we do not recommend consuming any brand of essential oils.

Essential oils, also known as aromatic or volatile oils, are natural aromatic substances derived from various parts of plants, such as stems, roots, seeds, flowers, and leaves. They give plants their characteristic scent and also have protective effects. Their chemical composition is quite complex. Essential oils are most commonly obtained from plants through distillation, extraction, or pressing. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be applied directly to the skin only after dilution with carrier vegetable oils (such as almond, apricot, jojoba, etc.). The exception is tea tree and lavender essential oils, which can be applied directly.

Use appropriate protective measures when handling oils.

Essential oils are soluble in fats, so if you want to use them in products without oil or butter content, use a solvent or solubilizer.
