Depends on your market. I use both.

I use both as well. You will also need to do some research on essential oils to be sure that what you are using is skin safe. Many of them are not.

Very true. In addition, some of the essential oils cause the skin to become sensitive to the sun. For example, if I wanted an orange scented whipped shea, I would use an FO because orange essential oil (as well as most citrus oils, I believe) are photosynthesizers.
