When you are into massaging your body like your neck when you have arthritis or you feel tired after a day's work, you would simply love scented oils--more so when you like having a massage.  There are a lot of oils available, which come as natural or synthetic--and we'll be discussing the different types of scented oils, what other buyers are saying, what to look out for and some of the most popular brands.

Types of Scented Oils

There are many types of scented oils, but they can be grouped into these categories.

• Natural essential oil in natural carrier – This is the most desirable. It is completely natural.
• Natural essential oil in synthetic carrier – The carrier here can be a synthetic carrier, like propylene glycol.
• Synthetic aromatic compound in natural carrier – Examples are lab created aromatic compounds in carrier like coconut oil.
• Synthetic aromatic compound in synthetic carrier – These are completely inorganic, with most ingredients being created in the laboratory.

Most people choose the first type of scented  oil, which is natural and also provides many health benefits.

What Other Buyers Are Saying

When you buy a scented oil, choose one that smells good to you.  If you like to chill down after working all day long, choose lavender oil.  On the other hand, if you want stimulation of the senses, go for menthol oil.

Other than that, read the reviews that other customer have left for the product they have purchased.  Here are some feedback that clients have left for a popular brand on Amazon UK:

Using for homemade soap making to add bubbles to bars when used. A small amount needed, or soap is too soft. This will last some time. Good quality.

Fantastic oil. My eyebrows have now started to grow back much thicker after about 2 weeks of use.

This is not genuine product. I have ordered cold pressed , organic castor oil, however the packaging was so poor and label does not confirm any information from the product description. Not vegan or eco certified, not cold pressed....even smell does not match castor oil. BE AWARE : DO NOT BUT THIS PRODUCT.  Only God knows what's in a bottle!

What to Look Out for

There are many scented oils available whether online or in a brick and mortar store so, you need to check if the oil is real  or if it's an imitation.  Read the ingredient to check if you are not allergic to it and ask your masseuse or dermatologist if you can use such a scented oil.  If you have selected the right scented oil for you, t hen, you'll surely enjoy your chilling time.
