Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts obtained through distillation or cold pressing, capturing the natural fragrance and beneficial compounds of the plant. Each essential oil has unique properties, making them popular in aromatherapy, skincare, and holistic health practices. For example, lavender oil is known for its calming effects, tea tree oil for its antimicrobial properties, and peppermint oil for its refreshing and digestive benefits. These oils are used in perfumes, cosmetics, cleaning products, and even in natural remedies to promote relaxation, alleviate stress, and support overall well-being.
