Essential oils: Where they come from and how they are used

Essential oils are compounds extracted from plants or fruits, especially citrus fruits, catching their smell and taste or "essence". Each one of them is unique and distinctive for its properties that bring well-being to the human body, as some of them come from plants traditionally used in the herbalist or in the ancient Chinese medicine.

The technique used to extract essential oils is important. Those obtained by chemical processes may cause the oils to lose their properties. Steam distillation or mechanical methods such as cold pressing are the most suitable. 

Why should you buy MARNYS® Essential Oils?

Buying MARNYS® Essential Oils means buying a product with the highest quality guarantees. Ask in your local shop for more information about health and wellbeing.

MARNYS® only selects essential oils extracted by steam distillation and, as for citrus fruits (orange, lemon, grapefruit and mandarin), by cold extraction, which means that the essential oil is rich in plant active ingredients to provide unique and different sensations of wellbeing, as opposed to the use of synthetic fragrances.

In fact, MARNYS® essential oil bottles are made of dark-coloured glass, protecting them from light, humidity and oxygen, thus ensuring that their properties are preserved.

100% pure essential oils

All MARNYS® essential oils are 100% natural and are obtained from plants coming from all over the world to ensure raw materials with a specific biochemical composition.

They are secreted by cells found in the bark (Camphor or Bergamot), in the leaves (Basil, Tea Tree or Marjoram), in the flowers (Lavender, Lavandin or Ylang Ylang), in the roots (Ginger or Vetiver) or, in many cases, in the seeds (Star Anise, Fennel or Black Pepper).

Buy chemotyped essential oils

The chemotype corresponds to the defined chemical composition of the components of the essential oil, which ensures that each of them can be fully identified. In this way, the quality, effectiveness and safety of the essential oil is ensured.

If essential oils are chemotyped, it means that they are 100% pure and of natural origin, without being blended with other oils.
