essential oil
100% pure essential oils for all-natural bath and body products and candle making. Our essential oils are vegan, cruelty-free, non-gmo, and ready for your next inspirational product line.
Pure essential oils tested by candle + soap makers
We’re proud to bring our crafting community a collection of premium essential oils.
We test each essential oil for performance in candles, soap, and reed diffusers and publish the results. If an essential oil just doesn’t perform well in candles, we’ll let you know; check the Candle Maker’s Notes section of each essential oil description.
what makes CandleScience essential oils different?
Essential oil badges and certifications
In addition to detailed performance notes, each essential oil product page has badges to help you make an informed choice.
Cruelty Free
CandleScience and our essential oil manufacturers have similar policies on cruelty-free products. We never test on animals and support cruelty-free alternatives to all animal testing.
Non-GMO
A Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) is any organism in which the genetic material or DNA has been modified in a way that does not occur naturally. Basically, our essential oils are derived from naturally occurring plants.
Certified Origin
The Certified Origin badge signifies that the ingredients for an essential oil are sourced from a certified geographical (country of) origin.
Vegan Product
We confirm that to the best of our knowledge, the essential oil is suitable to be used in products compliant with vegan standards.
Solvent Free
Our essential oils are made using steam distillation or cold pressing (sometimes referred to as expression) to preserve their purity.
Upcycled Sourcing
Upcycled essential oils are made with the leftover plant material that would have otherwise been discarded from other manufacturing processes.
Ground Shipping
Essential oils with this badge are unable to be shipped via air due to low flashpoints.
