Carrier Oils For Sleep Roll On Recipes
- Fractionated coconut oil: It’s odorless and colorless, has a long shelf life and is one of the most popular carrier oil for roller bottle recipes.

It is suitable for all skin types: normal, dry, oily and sensitive as well as mature. It works great in all types of roller bottle blends.
- Sweet almond oil: Sweet almond oil is suitable for all skin types including sensitive and acne-prone skin. It is one of the most gentle oils and extremely nourishing. It is rich in Vitamin D and an excellent emollient that can soften and condition the skin.
