Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts obtained by distilling (via steam or water) or mechanically pressing (i.e. cold pressing) various parts of certain plants, like flowers, leaves, seeds, or barks. Once extracted, a carrier oil is added to the aromatic to dilute it and make it ready-to-use. Pili Ani uses Pili Oil as a carrier oil. (Sources: WebMD, Healthline)

The use of essential oils dates back to the Egyptians' use of them for perfume and medicine. When you inhale essential oils, the molecules travel directly to the emotional center of your brain. When you use our roll-on applicators, the essential oils sink into your skin to help with muscle pain relief.

Our Essential Oil Blends come in a ready-to-use, no mess rollerball application. There's no need for a humidifier.

All you need to do is open the roller bottle and use the ball to apply the product onto your skin (temples, wrists, nape, chest, and anywhere you can easily get a whiff of the scent), making sure you avoid the eye and mouth area. You’ll notice the wonderful scent and get the full aromatherapy benefits after one application.

Pili Ani doesn’t use the Pili Nut directly—only the oil from the pulp of the Pili Fruit. But if you have nut allergies, it’s always better to side with caution. We recommend doing a patch test before using our products.

Potential allergens such as limonene, linalool, citral, citronellal, and geraniol may be found in our fragrances and essential oils. When we incorporate fragrances into our products, however, we make sure that the fragrances are hypoallergenic by using only a minimal amount that will barely trigger a reaction. 

When in doubt, we highly recommend doing a patch test before using our products. 

Our Pili Trees grow in the wild and are not cultivated. Technically speaking, we have yet to secure our certifications from OCs or Organic Certifiers. We’re on to it, though! Do note that our products are natural and FDA- and USFDA-approved. We don’t test on animals and we’re PETA certified.

Our oils may be used six to eight months after the mandatory expiry date. We’re talking oil, not wine, however. We can no longer ensure the best quality and efficacy past the posted best-before date.

Our products are natural and FDA- and USFDA-approved. We don’t test on animals and we’re PETA certified.

Pili Ani face oils have been tested and certified non-comedogenic by a third party laboratory. “Comedogenic” is an adjective that describes the likelihood of a product to clog pores. Non-comedogenic means it’s something that won’t clog pores.

If you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies, we recommend doing a patch test before using our products.

Since essential oils come from plants, most people assume it’s okay for kids to use. A word of caution: Each essential oil has a different recommendation for use most especially for children below 2 years old. It’s best to consult with your physician.

Our lip butters are lead-free and vegan. We use Pili Butter to nourish and moisturize dry, chapped lips.
