Questions and Answers (FAQ)

Q: What is the difference compared to the Laurel vegetable oil in the Ellemental range?
A: They are two completely different products, even though they come from the same plant. Laurel carrier oil is extracted from the fruits of the shrub, it is rich in nourishing fatty acids and contains a small fraction of natural volatile oils. It is the classic ingredient in Aleppo soap. The essential oil is distilled from the leaves and is extremely concentrated. They have different chemical profiles, different textures, and different uses.

The first impression I got was that it had a pungent odor. But that's just an initial sensation. It cleared my sinuses immediately. Strong, aromatic odor. It has highly prized antifungal properties.

On my last order, I bought some essential oils for the first time, including this one. So far I have used it in a culinary preparation and, I like it better than bay leaves.

I chose it for its multiple properties. I added it in 2 recipes, shampoo and shower gel for a person prone to folliculitis, but I will add it in an oily cuticle serum. It does have a strong scent though, so if you want to tame it, you can add sweet-floral fragrance and it will be wonderful!
