Common questions
What is Escentia Avocado Refined Carrier Oil?+
It is a nutrient-dense base oil for massage blending, skincare formulations and aromatherapy. Avocado oil is naturally rich in oleic acid, vitamins A, D and E, and plant sterols that support the skin's barrier function.
What is the difference between refined and virgin avocado oil?+
Refining gives a lighter colour and milder scent than virgin avocado oil, making it a more neutral carrier when you don't want an aroma competing with your essential oils. Despite refinement, the oil retains much of its fatty acid profile, so it still genuinely nourishes.
Which skin types suit avocado carrier oil?+
It is particularly well suited to dry, mature or dehydrated skin. Its heavier consistency absorbs more slowly than lighter oils like grapeseed or sweet almond, which makes it ideal for deep tissue massage — many practitioners blend it at 10–25% with a lighter carrier to balance richness and absorption.
How can I use avocado oil at home?+
Common uses include custom facial serums, body oil blends, cuticle care and hair masks for brittle or damaged strands. It is also a stable base for diluting essential oils before they touch the skin, which helps reduce the risk of sensitivity.
Any precautions with avocado oil?+
Perform a patch test before widespread use, particularly if you have a known sensitivity to latex or birch pollen, as cross-reactivity with avocado has been documented. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness.
Product details
Escentia Avocado Refined Carrier Oil is a versatile, nutrient-dense base oil prized for its deep moisturising properties and compatibility with a wide range of skin types. This 100ml bottle provides a practical size for regular use in massage blending, skincare formulations, and aromatherapy applications.
Avocado oil is naturally rich in oleic acid, vitamins A, D, and E, and plant sterols that support skin barrier function. The refining process produces a lighter colour and milder scent compared to virgin avocado oil, making it an excellent choice when a more neutral carrier is preferred for essential oil blending. Despite refinement, the oil retains much of its fatty acid profile, offering genuine nourishment without an overpowering aroma.
This carrier oil is particularly well suited for dry, mature, or dehydrated skin. Its heavier consistency means it absorbs more slowly than lighter oils such as grapeseed or sweet almond, making it ideal for deep tissue massage or intensive overnight facial treatments. Many practitioners blend it at 10–25% with a lighter carrier to balance absorption and richness.
Common uses include custom facial serums, body oil blends, cuticle treatments, and hair masks targeting brittle or damaged strands. It also serves as a stable base for diluting essential oils before topical application, helping to reduce the risk of skin sensitivity.
Escentia sources their carrier oils with a focus on quality and purity. Store in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness. As with any new topical product, perform a patch test before widespread use, particularly if you have a known sensitivity to latex or birch pollen, as cross-reactivity with avocado has been documented.
