natural oils
Unprocessed botanical extracts
Natural oils are oils derived from plants, animals, or other organic sources rather than synthesized or refined from petroleum.
The term typically refers to plant-based oils like olive, coconut, or jojoba, valued in cooking, cosmetics, and aromatherapy: She uses natural oils on her skin instead of lotion.
The phrase often carries connotations of purity or healthfulness, sometimes more marketing appeal than meaningful distinction.
