🌼 Essential Oils vs Fragrance Oils
Essential Oils (EO) are natural scents from concentrated plant and flower extracts available in a wide range. The downside to essential oils is their expense and propensity for fading with time. Essential oils can have health benefits.
Fragrance Oils (FO) are inexpensive, have scents that last for years, and are more varied. Fragrance oils are trademarked and patent protected, so the real ingredients are not disclosed.

💡 I will always let you know which I use: EO = Essential Oil | FO = Fragrance Oil
