How to preserve essential oils?

2019-05-05

Essential oils will deteriorate after sunshine, so the essential oils on the market are stored in dark essential oil glass bottles with a light-blocking effect, reducing the UV radiation by 90%. The chemical composition of the plastic destroys the quality of the essential oil, so it is not possible to store the essential oil in a plastic cosmetic bottle.

Do not store the essential oil in the refrigerator. Essential oils are very sensitive. When they are taken out of the refrigerator and put back in use, the essential oil will be in a state of unstable temperature, which will promote the deterioration of essential oils. The correct way is to put it in a dry, cool place. The most suitable storage temperature is: 18 degrees Celsius to 30 degrees Celsius, away from electrical appliances (hot air), bathroom.


It is more suitable to store the essential oil in a wooden box. Because the properties of the wood are the same as those of the essential oil, the essential oil aroma can be better preserved, but pay attention to the shelf life, and the expired essential oil should not be used to avoid adverse effects or allergies.

If the essential oil has been unpacked, the shelf life will be shortened, so try to avoid frequent opening and oxidation by air. It is best to take a portion of your essential oil bottle according to your dosage, which will extend the shelf life of the essential oil you purchase and reduce the volatilization. The essential oil bottle cap must be closed, reducing the number of opening caps, and often opening, which will cause the essential oil to deteriorate due to too much exposure to air.
