A Note…

A Note from Somah~
The heat of summer! (In the N. Hemisphere) A P R I C O T seed oil.. such a luscious treat on the skin ESPECIALLY (for me) in the summertime!!
Why?
What is the difference between “Jojoba, Apricot, Almond, Coconut & Olive oil”??  All “Carrier oils”.. aka “Vegetable oils” or Virgin Plant oils.. These are the gorgeous carriers of our highly prized Essential oils, that are applied to the skin.
The main difference between the carriers are viscosities and “temp” of components.. Does that sound complicated?  It sorta is and sorta isn’t.  There’s a bit of common sense to it but you do have to stop and give it a second thought before just grabbing any ole oil that seems oily!  Sesame oil is heating.. Coconut oil is cooling..  We don’t carry either of those at Savitur but they are used in custom blends and formulas for those that require it.  Almond oil is a bit more warming than neutral but not “heating” and it is quite fragrant if it’s a pure high quality.  Olive is neutral and so is Jojoba.  Click on their links and discover their brilliance.
APRICOT.. our feature!  So sweet and thick.  Not an ideal massage oil, as it doesn’t have the ’slick’ movement but oooooh is it decadent to use in a massage if going slow and deep.  I love to add Frankincense, carterii and Neroli to my body oil.  I usually blend it with Jojoba. In the summer, I love to add just the Frankincense to only Apricot oil and it’s just the right balance of earth and sweetness for me.
And sometimes??  I don’t add any Essential oils.. just pure rich Apricot oil; any day the temperature is over  72*!
If you desire a “pre-made” body blend that has multiple uses try this together:
Jaswood– roll onto palm heavily, add 1 sliver dollar size amount of Apricot oil; rub palms together and smear across legs and arms after shower. You’ll smell divine and your sense’s will fill you with confidence!
LIMITLESS OPTIONS with Apricot oil!  It’s safe for babies and elderly.  Be sure to try some while it’s on sale in July.  Wanna buy in BULK?  Message us for a special savings through July only.
Enjoy the heat and stay cool!
Peace + love,
Somah (& the Savitur team)
