Sahu Sacred Oils and essential oils serve different purposes and have distinct methods of production.

Sahu Sacred Oils: These oils are crafted using an ancient alchemical tradition that combines carrier oils with natural plant essences to bring out the full spiritual and therapeutic properties of the plants. This method is rooted in centuries-old Egyptian practices and is designed for spiritual rituals, holistic healing, and enhancing meditation.

Essential Oils: These are pure plant extracts obtained through modern distillation or cold pressing methods. Essential oils are primarily used in aromatherapy and therapeutic applications for their concentrated properties.

In essence, Sahu Sacred Oils integrate a blend of oils to create a sacred, alchemical product, whereas essential oils are single, pure plant extracts focused on physical and emotional well-being.

The reduced price of our 10mL roll-on versions compared to their pure counterparts is primarily due to the difference in concentration of sacred essence oil content. Our roll-on blends incorporate a combination of carrier oils, such as fractionated coconut oil, jojoba oil, and moringa oil, along with a smaller amount of pure sacred oil. This dilution allows us to offer a more cost-effective option while still providing the benefits of the essential oil. For example, in the case of our Red Rose oil, which is particularly expensive due to its scarcity and labor-intensive extraction process, we offer a 10ml roll-on at a lower price point compared to a 5ml pure sacred oil bottle, as the roll-on contains a higher proportion of carrier oils to essential oil. Rest assured, our roll-on blends maintain the quality and effectiveness of the pure ritual oils while offering a more affordable option for our customers.

Sahu oils are versatile and can be used both aromatically and topically. They are safe for direct application to the skin when properly diluted with a carrier oil. However, we always recommend performing a patch test before using any oil on larger areas of the skin to ensure compatibility and prevent allergic reactions.

Cold-pressed  oils are extracted from botanical materials using a process called cold-pressing, which involves mechanical pressure without the use of heat or chemicals. This gentle extraction method preserves the natural aromatic compounds present in the plant material, resulting in oils that retain a fresher and more subtle aroma. While some may perceive this aroma as less intense compared to oils produced using synthetic chemicals or heat/steam distillation methods, it's essential to understand that the strength of an essential oil isn't solely determined by its scent intensity.

We understand that the price of Sahu Oils may seem higher than other oils, but there are several reasons for this. Each step of our process is done with immense care, love, and a commitment to quality and sacred tradition.

1. Pure and Natural: Our oils are free from chemicals, preservatives, and pesticides. The plants used are hand-picked in Egypt, ensuring that only the highest-quality raw materials are selected.
2. Fair Compensation: We believe in supporting the communities who make these oils possible. A fair price is paid to the farmers, the families, and the workers at the oil press, ensuring that everyone is properly compensated for their hard work and dedication.
3. Sacred Ritual: Each batch of oils undergoes a sacred process. My friend personally travels 9 hours from Cairo to Luxor to pick up small batches (about 250-500 grams per oil) and sometimes stays overnight to ensure everything is handled with care. As part of our unique ritual, the oils are placed inside the sarcophagus in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Giza, where a heart-centered incantation is recited in Arabic. This infusion of sacred energy is a key part of what makes Sahu Oils so special.
4. Hand-Crafted with Love: Once the oils are shipped to New York, we take great care in the packaging, labeling, and hand-pouring of each blend. The oils are tuned using a 528hz singing bowl, adding vibrational healing energy to each bottle.
5. High-Quality and Small Batches: Unlike mass-produced oils, we work in small batches, ensuring the highest quality. There are also risks involved with importing, such as missing shipments, which adds to the overall cost.

Each bottle of Sahu Oils carries the essence of ancient Egypt, hand-crafted with intention and respect for sacred traditions. We pour love into every step of the process, from farm to bottle, which is reflected in the price. Thank you for understanding the care and dedication that go into bringing these sacred oils to you. 🙏💜
