What type of oil is used as a base with the rose geranium? Almond, jojoba, something else?

I have not actually used it with a carrier oil, but rather mix it with witch hazel for use as a tick repellent for my family and dog. It works great in that regard.

The oil is pure essential oil, there is no carrier. You can use it straight or mix it with whatever carrier oil you like....I use a dab straight on my face, neck & scalp at night with lavender oil and it really calms & relaxes.

This product is made with Pelargonium graveolens, which is Rose Geranium. Its cousin is Pelargonium odorantissimum, or geranium. Odorantissimum contains Alpha Pinene, Myrcene, Limonene, Menthone, Linalool, Geranyl Acetate, Citronellol, Geraniol and Geranyl Butyrate. Rose Geranium contains the same constituents. There are 700 types of geranium, but only about 10 are used to obtain essential oil. Rose Geranium is favored because of the scent being rosy. So the answer is, geraniol is a constituent of geranium oil, but it is not the only constituent. It is my favorite essential oil for use in soap making because of its healing properties and its ability to produce feelings of well-being.

Well it says on the label this is from mexico. This particular plant originates down south here in the US and I would guess mexico also.I read somewhere that organic is not the important factor with jojoba oil. That organic doesn't say much about quality. More important is unrefined, cold pressed, virgin (first pressed). Haven't bought this brand yet, but based on reviews, it seems like the description from the seller rings true, that its top grade stuff.

There are two main species of Rose Geranium oil available, the one with the botanical name Pelargonium capitatum x radens is what you are looking for to repel ticks. Rose Geranium oil under the name Pelargonium graveolens is not the same exact thing, and it is more common. This product does repell ticks. Works really well on my dog.

I bought the oil for my daughter. She loves the smell on her skin. I think the rose in it adds a better smell that just geranium alone. Although I like the smell of geranium plants, I would not like to wear the smell. Hope this helps.

I like the oil but I am unsure if it has an nut base mainly because I am a consumer just like you. But I hope you find someone who knows more about the answer you need.

You would add it sparingly to another oil, such as grapeseed, jojoba, or sweet almond oil. Essesense oils are only used too scent other things and/or aroma therapy.

I use an electric mixer on the lowest speed with a tablespoon of each jojoba oil, castor oil (you can also use almond but I'm allergic) , grape seed oil, jargan oil, olive oil, and vitamin e. Makes a super whipped super moist conditioning product. If you want it more liquidy vs a butter type product the add coconut oil till you get your desired texture. All of these oils are amazing for ur hair and skin, and I just love it.

I be honest. I really don't know. I mix this oil with my hair and body butters that I make for fragrance. Essential oils are usually mixed with a carrier oil like jojoba, almond, coconut and then used on the body. I hope this helped.

I'm getting ready to order the avocado oil to alternate with NOW jojoba oil... LOVE the jojoba! Almond oil seems lighter to me and does not penetrate and moisturize for an extended period of time. I think trying avocado and jojoba will allow you to determine which works best for what... Enjoy!!

Yes, I have been using jojoba specifically for oil cleansing method and this specific brand I have seen the best results. I have tried other types of oils with little luck and I find that with this LevenRose brand I see smaller pores and less skin irritation. I also use 1-2 drops of it plus one drop rose hip oil as a night time moisturizer. My skin is looking so much better!
