Essential Oils are extracted from various parts of plants. Depending on what plant part they come it will have a very different effect on different layers of your skin.

For example, cosmetics only affect the epidermis ( top layer of your skin) while essential oils go deeper than the epidermis and can reach down to both the dermis and the sub-cutis by entering the bloodstream.
