This is very much dependant on the product you are using. Each category has a different expiry date. The categories with the lower shelf life is due to their natural state which is great for inherent benefits but it also is a less stable product so the shelf life is shorter (Cold Pressed Oils being an example).

There is a clear difference between the 2 categories so be sure not to get confused.

Carrier/ Base Oils - these can be considered as Refined Oils, Cold Pressed Oils, Virgin, Unrefined Oils.

A Carrier oil is a ‘Fixed’ product that is expressed (pressed) from a seed/nut/fruit then kept in its virgin state or alternatively refined. A carrier oil is either used on its own or applied to a formulation, mainly to ‘carry’ other ingredients such as essential oils. Carrier oils carry a wide range of skin nutrition benefits but predominantly they hold emollient and moisturising properties. The decision between whether you take a Cold Pressed or Refined oil depends on what you are looking to achieve in your final application. Those that wish to savour a carrier oils natural inherent benefits and aroma choose a cold pressed (virgin) version. Those that choose refined are looking for an oil that has no aroma however acts as a perfect emollient to carry the rest of the formulations ingredients.

Essential Oils - An essential oil is a concentrated liquid containing the essence/aroma of a plant usually obtained via water or steam distillation. Essential oils are predominantly used to provide the distinguished aroma of your final product. They are used either on their own for maximum potency or diluted into a Carrier Oil to control the aroma strength.

It is your responsibility to review the extensive technical information provided on the product profile page to make sure you are happy with the products you are purchasing. It is important to realise - natural ingredients can mean variation in colour, aroma & viscosity - this all must be considered at the time of purchase. Much of this is down to the manufacturing methods used. Cold Pressing is a totally natural process and no further processing has been done to stabilise the ingredient. It is a fantastic (100% natural process), however consistency in colour, aroma & viscosity can be challenging when it comes to Cold Pressed products. Refined, Hydrogenated and Steam distilled products are different - they are consistent in colour, aroma & viscosity due to the stabilising processes their manufacturing processes involve.

Note: It is the buyer’s responsibility to review the ingredients list carefully to avoid any potential allergies/sensitivities before purchase.
