Can you keep essential oils in the fridge?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some essential oil lovers swear by putting their oils in the fridge. It isn\u2019t so much the lower temperature that matters\u2014oils do not need to be kept that cold\u2014but the consistent climate. Your fridge stays the same temperature day and night, which helps preserve the oil. If you don\u2019t want your oil to be cold when you use it, be sure to remove it about 1\u20132 hours before you\u2019ll need it so the oil can return to room temperature. Once you\u2019re finished using the oil, put it back in the fridge so it can return to a consistent temperature.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #035b42\"><strong>2. Is it okay to freeze essential oils?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Putting essential oils in the freezer is perfectly safe. The consistent temperature and lack of light will help to preserve your oils. There are some oils\u2014like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/us\/en\/product\/rose-essential-oil\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rose<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/us\/en\/product\/thyme-essential-oil\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thyme<\/a>, and others\u2014that may have natural components that solidify or crystallize in the freezer. If your oils do this, simply allow them to thaw before you use them by keeping them at room temperature.

We recommend always storing your essential oils in dark or opaque bottles to preserve their quality.<\/p>\n<h3 data-fontsize=\"16\" data-lineheight=\"24px\" class=\"fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"line-height: 1.5\"><span style=\"color: #035b42\"><strong>5. Do essential oils expire?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Essential oils don\u2019t expire in the traditional sense. When stored properly, essential oils can last for years. But because of a process called oxidation, which begins the moment you open your bottle and expose the oil to the air, oils will gradually change over time. Following the suggestions mentioned above\u2014storing oils in dark bottles, keeping them out of the sun, and storing them at room or cool temperatures\u2014will help prolong the lifespan of your oils.
