FAQS
What is the difference between essential oils and vegetable oils?
Essential oils are highly concentrated, volatile compounds extracted from plants, while vegetable oils are oily substances extracted from the seeds or fruits of plants. Essential oils are often used for their aromatic and therapeutic properties, while vegetable oils are known for their nutrient content and use in skin care.
How do you know if a vegetable oil is of good quality?
A good quality vegetable oil is 100% pure, without artificial additives or preservatives. Normally, cold-pressed oils retain their properties and nutrients better. Additionally, quality can be determined through the aroma and color of the oil, which must be natural and unaltered. At Gotes, we guarantee that all our vegetable oils are of the highest quality.
What precautions for use do vegetable oils have?
Although vegetable oils are generally safe for most people, some people may have allergic reactions to certain oils. Therefore, it is always recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before using a new vegetable oil. In addition, some vegetable oils can have specific effects (such as rosehip oil which can increase sensitivity to the sun), so it is always important to read and follow the instructions for use.
