True essential oils are completely botanically derived, meaning the oil is extracted from plant matter using methods such as cold press or steam distillation. Essential oils are traditionally used for their benefits & scent. Essential oils are most commonly used in aromatherapy, oil burners, bath, massage and body care.
Fragrances are synthetically made using a combination of synthetic and natural components. This allows for the creation of far more complex and stable scents. Fragrance oils can be formulated to create scents that cannot be derived naturally, such as 'Seabreeze', 'Pear' and complex perfumes. Fragrance oils are more commonly used in candles, reed diffusers, incense and perfumes.
The majority of our essential oils are extracted via steam distillation. Citrus oils such as Lemon, Lime and Orange are extracted using a cold press of the peel. Each one of our essential oils has its own extraction method listed in its product description.
All of Buckley & Phillips essential oils are of the highest quality available and have been stringently tested and certified as 100% pure, natural and true to botanical. Each essential oil is tested via gas chromatography, optical rotation, refractive index, specific gravity, colour & odour profile. This ensures that each oil is pure and free from adulteration.
Buckley & Phillips also offer a range of Certified Organic essential oils. These essential oils are grown and processed without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or GMOs.
The term 'Therapeutic-Grade' is somewhat misleading as there is currently no government agency or independent organisation that provides a standardized grading system for essential oils. While there are some other essential oil companies that use the term 'Therapeutic-Grade', this is nothing more than a registered marketing phrase.
While all of our essential oils are 100% pure and many of our oils do meet food grade standards, we are unable to advise essential oils to be taken internally unless under the consultation of a health professional or aromatherapist. In Australia, you would need to have an Advanced Diploma in Aromatic Medicine to prescribe ingestion of essential oils. To not hold such a qualification, and to still advise on ingestion of essential oils, can put you at risk of litigation.
Most qualified aromatherapists will advise against internal use because of the risk of poisoning and irritation to the GI tract when there are much safer methods of use that provide the positive benefits of essential oils.
All of our essential oils are printed with an expiry date. While essential oils don’t technically go rancid, they can oxidize and deteriorate over time. To prolong the life of your essential oils we recommend storing at room temperature, away from sunlight and with the lid securely tightened.
No, our fragrant product ranges use only phthalate-free, cosmetic-grade oils.
All Buckley & Phillips jar candles are made using soy wax combined with natural coconut wax to improve the overall performance of the candle.
All Buckley & Phillips pillar candles are made from fully-refined paraffin wax. Due to the low melting-point of pure soy wax it is unable to be used for manufacturing pillar candles.
All of Buckley & Phillips' product ranges are now vegan.
None of Buckley & Phillips products are tested on animals. We are accredited by PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). This certification also ensures that Buckley & Phillips' suppliers of raw material do not test on animals. Please see our accreditation details HERE.
No, our company only uses ‘Bio-Fill’ void. This polystyrene alternative is 100% biodegradable and environmentally friendly. It is made from corn starch and breaks down in water. Online orders are also packed using compostable mailer bags, recycled & recyclable bubble wrap.
