Essential oils are an essential cornerstone of Karmameju’s DNA. 

Created by nature, they have a unique and holistic effect that both affects our mental well-being and improves the condition of the skin. Lavender, for example, is known to soothe both the skin and the mind. These oils are extremely bioactive, effective and concentrated, with an extremely complex chemistry as each oil consists of hundreds of unique compounds. 

At Karmameju, we are deeply engaged in aromachology – the study of how scents affect human emotions and behaviour.

The sense of smell is essential and influences us more than many people realise. It is directly connected to the limbic system – the brain’s centre for memory and emotions – which allows aromatherapy to impact our state of mind, energy, and mood: it can make us feel more positive, relaxed, energised, focused, and much more.

Our three aromatherapy ranges – LOVING, CALMING, and ENERGIZING – each have their own physical and emotional focus. They work like a “toolbox for your emotions,” with each product created using scents designed to take the mind on a journey and help shift your mood in the direction you desire.

If you're looking for an uplifting boost in the morning, choose the vibrant and invigorating ENERGIZING range. If you want to calm your mind after a long day, try the soothing and gentle CALMING range, whereas LOVING offers a positive, nurturing embrace when you need balance or wish to feel more grounded.

We want to inspire you to use aromatherapy through sense-awakening skincare rituals, as a time-out from your busy everyday life and as part of the important self-love we all deserve and need.

We always recommend inhaling the aromatherapeutic scents of Karmameju products from your palms to experience the full fragrance and therapeutic effect.
