Vegetable Carrier Oils

A fully processed oil that has been exposed to all methods of refinement including a flash fluctuation in temperature as high as 450 degrees Fahrenheit and winterization as low as -30 degrees Fahrenheit; deodorization, which removes the heavy and often unsettling odor in oil; and finally bleaching, where natural clays and other mediums are used to alter or remove oils, color, and scent. This makes for a cost-effective oil in cosmetics and body care products, but it is not the healthiest as a food-grade oil.

A process where only some of the methods available are employed to produce a manufactured oil. Only one or two of the three available methods are used in a partially refined oil. These include, but are not limited to, deodorization, winterization, and natural bleaching. These methods are used for oils that have been known historically to go rancid quickly as they are used to further stabilize the oil and remove its heavy odor and deep color.

 A process of mechanical extraction and screen filtering where no additional refining process has taken place. This ensures the finest quality product and makes the oil the most exquisite for food and cosmetic preparation. The unrefined process helps the oil to retain a rich, strong flavor, and color that is true to its natural state. Unrefined oils are always darker in color and richer in scent.
