FAQs

 
What ingredients do you use in you products?

We're all natural baby! It's what we're all about, the reason why we're here.

So that's why our blends only contain 2 constituents - organically grown fractionated coconut oil and 100% pure therapeutic grade essential oils.
We've gone to great lengths to source the highest quality ingredients we can find.

Therefore, no synthetic fragrances, mineral oils, preservatives or parabens, sulphates (SLS/SLES) or animal products are in any of our products.

If you'd like to learn more about the oils we use, please see The Oleo Difference.

 
Does this mean your products are vegan?

Absolutely!
 

Do you ever test on animals?

Definitely not, never have, never will.
Unless by "animals" you mean our maniac children, then yes, testing has been done on them. But never on our furry little friends!


How long will my blends last?

Your roller will last at least a year, if not more if stored in a cool, dry place.
We want your product to go the distance so we choose to use dark amber glass rollers which absorb harmful UV light, protecting the oils properties and potency, making them last much longer than clear glass bottles.

 
Where are your blends made?

We make all our rollers to order in Palm Beach on the beautiful Gold Coast, Australia.


I've checked out the Oleo Baby range, but are they actually safe to use on babies?

As we well know how precious little ones are, we have not taken any risks when developing this range of blends. Each roller has been carefully developed depending on how frequently they are used, what conditions they are used for, and the age of the child on which we use them. All ratios that have been employed are deemed safe to use on babies 3 months or older.

As every child's skin is different however, we do suggest doing a patch test 24 hours prior to ensure no skin sensitivities occur.

And please remember never to apply the roller anywhere that your little one can reach with their hands to avoid spread of the oils to their eyes or mouth.
 

I'm pregnant, can I use your products?

It is recommended that no essential oil should be used in the first trimester of pregnancy.

There are a number of oils that can be used throughout the remainder of your pregnancy however, there are a number that should be avoided. As we are not medical professionals, we suggest that you consult with your healthcare provider before using any of our products.

 
Can I use your products if I'm breastfeeding?

Again, we do not claim to be medical professionals so you should always consult your healthcare provider before using any of our products.

In saying that, we have done extensive research on the oils used in our Oleo Mama range and can assure you that oils and ratios used are fine whilst breastfeeding.

Please ensure that you do not use them anywhere near your nipples or allow your little ones to come in contact with the adult blends.


I just submitted my order, how long will it be before I have them in my hands?

We want you to receive the best possible product we can provide so we make our blends to order. Please allow 1-2 working days before your rollers are sent out.
