✅ Absolutely! Rosemary and Basil are amazing for scalp health—add a drop to your shampoo or a carrier oil for a refreshing hair treatment.
❓ How should I store herbal essential oils?
✅ Keep them in a cool, dark place, away from heat and sunlight, to maintain their potency and shelf life.
❓ Are herbal essential oils safe for pregnancy?
⚠️ Some herbal oils, like Clary Sage, should be used with caution during pregnancy. Always check with a healthcare professional before use.
These oils contain potent compounds that may not be safe for use during pregnancy due to their stimulating, hormonal, or strong medicinal properties.
Herbal & Medicinal Oils to Avoid:
Spicy & Stimulating Oils to Avoid:
Citrus & Resinous Oils to Avoid:
Deep & Grounding Oils to Avoid:
Floral Oils to Avoid:
(These oils contain strong active compounds that may stimulate contractions, affect hormones, or cause irritation in sensitive pregnancies.)
These oils are generally considered gentler when used correctly, but they should always be diluted and used in moderation.
Floral & Gentle Oils (Best for Relaxation & Stress Relief):
Citrus Oils (Best for Morning Sickness & Energy):
Woody & Earthy Oils (Best for Grounding & Stability):
(Even “safer” oils should be used in very low concentrations during pregnancy.)
💧 Dilution is Key – Use a maximum of 1% dilution (1 drop per 10ml carrier oil). Essential oils should never be applied undiluted to the skin.
🌿 Avoid Ingestion – Essential oils should not be taken internally during pregnancy.
🌸 Use in Moderation – Stick to occasional use, such as diffusing for 20–30 minutes at a time.
🛁 For a Relaxing Bath:
💆 For Massage & Skincare:
🏡 For Diffusing & Home Use:
(Always perform a patch test before using a new oil, as pregnancy can heighten skin sensitivity.)
While some essential oils can offer wonderful comfort and relaxation during pregnancy, they should always be used cautiously, sparingly, and under expert guidance. If in doubt, consult a qualified aromatherapist or healthcare provider.❓ FAQs – Everything You Need to Know

What really makes an essential oil high quality? Should you ingest them? And how do you avoid overpriced marketing gimmicks? Let’s break it down.
With so many brands claiming to offer the "purest" or "therapeutic-grade" essential oils, how can you tell what's truly high quality?
Here’s what actually matters:
✔ Purity is measurable – True essential oils are free from synthetic additives, fillers, or dilution. Independent testing verifies purity.
✔ Aroma reveals quality – A high-quality oil has a rich, layered scent that smells exactly like the plant it comes from—not flat, overly sharp, or artificial.
✔ Pricing should be fair – While pure essential oils aren’t cheap, extreme pricing doesn’t mean “better.” Some brands charge 3×–5× the industry standard without offering anything truly superior.
🌿 Pro Tip: When you open a bottle of essential oil, trust your senses! If it smells harsh, weak, or synthetic, it's not the real deal.
Some companies claim their essential oils are "so pure you can ingest them"—but is this safe?
💡 Did you know? Just one drop of peppermint oil is equivalent to drinking 28 cups of peppermint tea! That’s how powerful essential oils are.
🌿 Reality Check: Even clinical aromatherapists use essential oils internally only in extreme cases, with medical supervision, and in highly diluted doses. The safest way to use essential oils? Aromatherapy, skincare, and diffusion.
At Herbs on the Hill, we focus on real, verifiable quality—not sales gimmicks.
✔ We Only Sell the Oils We Use in Our Own Products – Unlike companies that sell oils as their primary business, we source oils for our handmade skincare and wellness range first. This means we buy in bulk and pass the savings onto you.
✔ No Overpricing, No Gimmicks – Some brands charge outrageous prices while claiming their oils are "beyond pure." We believe in fair pricing for true quality.
✔ Small-Batch & Freshly Bottled – Many mass-market oils sit in warehouses for months. Ours are bottled fresh to maintain their potency and purity.
✔ Honest Pricing & Ethical Sourcing – You're paying for pure essential oils, not an overpriced label.
💬 "I've tried a lot of essential oils, but your Rose Otto is something else entirely. It smells like a real rose garden, not synthetic at all." – Jane B.
💬 "I have never smelled Patchouli this good. It’s earthy but smooth, not overpowering like some brands." – Julia J.
💬 "I could tell instantly that these were high-quality oils. The scent lasts longer, and there’s a depth to them that I don’t get with other brands." – Tim W.
