What is cold pressing and why do people prefer it?
If you don’t know the difference, you really need to read this, it could make you re-think how you buy your oils!
There are various ways of extracting essential and carrier oils. One of the most popular forms of extraction is cold pressing, which does not use added heat, solvents or other chemicals to extract the oil from the fruit, nut, seed or petals, and maintains as much of the nutrients in the oil as possible.
