Carrier Oils UK
Wild As The Wind stock a good number of excellent quality UK Carrier Oils. There is a twofold reason for this:
In order for essential oils to be used safely for topical application, they must first be diluted in a good quality carrier oil. As Wild As The Wind offer one of the most extensive ranges of premium quality, therapeutic grade UK essential oils available online, it is important to also provide a good range of premium grade carrier oils for aromatherapy purposes.
As a natural skincare company, Wild As The Wind also advocate for the use of carrier oils for personal care. Premium grade carrier oils are nutrient and vitamin rich. When high-grade carrier oils are used in conjunction with therapeutic grade essential oils, optimal outcomes can be achieved.
Our skin is the largest organ in our bodies, and so it is of utmost importance for us to take good care of it.
As our skin is on the front line of our defences, it is exposed to all manner of assaults. Our skin performs a crucially important role within our immune system, and is also responsible for eliminating 40% of our bodily waste.
Keeping our skin well-fed, and functioning optimally, is vitally important for our overall health.
The skin is a complex organ that has devised numerous strategies, such as physical, chemical, and microbiological barriers, to protect the host from external insults. In addition, the skin contains an intricate network of immune cells resident to the tissue, crucial for host defence as well as tissue homeostasis. In the event of an insult, the skin-resident immune cells are crucial, not only for prevention of infection, but also for tissue reconstruction. Deregulation of immune responses often leads to impaired healing and poor tissue restoration and function.1
Carrier oils protect the skin, and enhance the dermal immune response. Discover how to use carrier oils here: Carrier Oil Uses.

Wild As The Wind Organic Carrier Oil Availability

Wherever possible, we source organic carrier oils that are produced in the UK, but sometimes this isn’t possible. The growing conditions of the plants and fruits, which are used to make organic carrier oils, ultimately determine the quality of the organic carrier oils produced.
Some of the organic plants, fruits and seeds needed to make a good number of the organic carrier oils, in the Wild As The Wind Organic Carrier Oil range, simply can’t be grown successfully in the UK. For this reason, Wild As The Wind source a good number of carrier oils from around the world.

Carrier Oil Suitability
Almost all carrier oils are safe for use with children, with most of them being suitable for all skin types. However, not all oils are well tolerated by those with allergies and compromised immunity. For this reason, it is important to perform a patch test prior to more universal use.
It is also important to read the full product descriptions provided for each carrier oil to establish which oil is most suited to your needs.
Whilst it is possible to use almost all carrier oils for topical application with children and toddlers, it is always best to keep things simple, and opt for the gentler, less complex oils.
How To Perform A Patch Test
Place a drop or two of Wild As The Wind oil on your inner forearm, making sure to massage it well into your skin.
A severe reaction will occur within ten minutes, but it may take 24 hours for milder intolerances to emerge.
Look for signs of Urticaria, (aka Hives), discolouration, redness, dryness, or feelings of irritation / itchiness.
If you experience none of these, you will be safe to use your Wild As The Wind oil elsewhere on your body, including your face.
Nevertheless, always avoid sensitive areas and inside your ears unless otherwise instructed by your health professional. This is especially important if you use your Wild As The Wind oil as a carrier oil for a number of Organic Essential Oils.
