What Are Carrier Oils?

Carrier oils are natural, plant-based oils used to dilute essential oils and "carry" them to the skin. They’re typically derived from nuts, seeds, or kernels and can also be used on their own for a variety of cosmetic and wellness applications. These luxurious oils can be enjoyed alone or used to dilute essential oils before applying them to the skin. 

As a leading wholesale supplier of carrier oils, we’ve worked hard to source the perfect carrier oil for nearly every need, from massage blends to skincare serums to perfumes.

What to Consider When Selecting Wholesale Carrier Oils

Keep the following in mind to make sure you choose the right carrier oils for your needs.

Choose a Supplier With Consistent Oil Quality

When buying carrier oils in bulk, quality, consistency, and versatility are key. Whether you're formulating skincare products, creating massage blends, or stocking up for spa treatments, it's essential to select oils that meet high purity standards and perform consistently across batches. Look for oils that are cold-pressed, minimally processed, and sourced with transparency, like those offered at Wholesale Botanics. These tend to retain more of their natural fatty acids, delivering a smoother finish.

Select Carrier Oils Based On Your Usage Needs

Different carrier oils offer different textures and absorption rates, so consider your end use. For example, lightweight options, like grapeseed and jojoba, are ideal for facial products or massage treatments that require a quick glide without leaving a greasy residue. However, richer oils, like sweet almond or avocado, work well in body butters or deep-conditioning blends where extra hydration is desired. While carrier oils tend to have a gentle or neutral fragrance, you'll still want to choose one that complements the fragrances of any essential oils you plan to add to your blend.

Get the Proper Packaging and Sizing for Your Production Scale

Sizing and packaging also matter when purchasing wholesale carrier oils. At Wholesale Botanics, we offer sizes that fit your production scale, whether that’s a liter for small-batch blends or a drum for larger commercial use. All of our containers are designed to prolong the shelf life of your carrier oil.

Carrier Oil Uses and Benefits

Carrier oils are the unsung heroes of natural formulation; they’re versatile, nourishing, and essential for a wide range of beauty, cosmetic, and wellness applications. For example, if you’re looking to apply oils for hair or oils for skin, carrier oils are necessary to dilute the essential oil and ensure it can be applied safely.

Carrier oils are commonly used for massage therapy, hair care, scalp treatments, skincare, bath and body products, cosmetics, and perfumes. Of course, their gentle fragrance can also be enjoyed in diffusers.

FAQ About Wholesale Carrier Oils

Do you still have questions about carrier oils? We answer some of the most common questions below.

What's the Best Carrier Oil for Essential Oils?

The best carrier oil depends on your intended use and skin type. Popular options include jojoba oil for its lightweight feel, sweet almond oil for all-purpose blending, and coconut oil for its smooth texture and long shelf life.

How to Mix Essential Oils With Carrier Oils?

To dilute essential oils, mix a few drops of essential oil with a larger amount of carrier oil, typically at a 1–5% dilution, depending on personal preference. Always patch test before use, especially if applying to the skin.

What Is the Thinnest Carrier Oil?

Grapeseed oil and fractionated coconut oil are known for their light, fast-absorbing texture. These are great carrier oil options when a non-greasy finish is desired.

Do Carrier Oils Clog Pores or Cause Acne?

Some carrier oils are considered more “comedogenic” than others, meaning they may be more likely to clog pores in certain individuals. Non-comedogenic options, such as hemp seed oil, grapeseed oil, and jojoba oil, are often preferred for sensitive or acne-prone skin types.

How Should I Store Carrier Oils to Keep Them Fresh Longer?

Store carrier oils in a cool, dark place, ideally in amber or opaque bottles to reduce light exposure. Refrigeration can help extend the shelf life of more delicate oils, such as rosehip or flaxseed.

Are Your Carrier Oils Certified?

Yes, we offer a range of certified carrier oils, including organic and cold-pressed options. Certification details are listed on each product page or can be provided upon request.

What Is the Best Carrier Oil to Mix With Essential Oils for Diffuser Use?

Fractionated coconut oil is the ideal carrier oil for reed or passive diffusers, as it’s lightweight, scentless, and allows essential oils to disperse slowly and evenly. Avoid using carrier oils in water-based diffusers, as they can disrupt the misting process.

Is There a Minimum Order Quantity for Wholesale Carrier Oils?

No, there is no minimum quantity required to enjoy our wholesale prices. For most of our oils, our sizes start at 0.5-ounce bottles, and you receive wholesale prices even when ordering an individual bottle.

What Packaging Options Are Available for Wholesale Carrier Oils?

We offer a variety of bulk packaging options, including food-grade plastic jugs, metal drums, and glass containers, depending on the quantity ordered and the type of oil.

How Long Is the Shelf Life of Your Bulk Carrier Oils?

Shelf life varies by oil, but most last around 24 months when stored properly. Specific shelf life information is available on request or listed in each product specification.

Can I Private Label Carrier Oils?

Yes, we offer private label oils for qualified wholesale partners, including carrier oils, oil blends, and cosmetic formulations. Please contact us to discuss label design, volume requirements, and lead times.
