Rocky Mountain Oils Product Reformulation Update: Our Commitment to Sustainability

At Rocky Mountain Oils (RMO), our mission has always centered on providing pure, high-quality essential oils while maintaining environmental responsibility. Today, we're announcing important changes to three of our beloved essential oil blends: Aligning, Balance, and Baby Skin.

Why the Change?
Rosewood (Aniba rosaeodora) is currently endangered, with its population continuing to decline. While RMO has always sourced our Rosewood oil through CITES-certified suppliers, we've made the conscious decision to completely eliminate its use in our products. The cosmetics and perfumery industries are the largest consumers of Rosewood oil, and we believe reducing demand is crucial for this species' survival.

Our Updated RMO Formulations:

Aligning

  • New formulation features Frankincense Serrata and Lavandin

  • Maintains the sweet, woodsy aromatic profile

  • Preserves the original blend's therapeutic properties

  • Expected availability: End of 2024

Balance

  • Reformulated without Rosewood, Ylang ylang, and Myrrh

  • Carefully rebalanced to maintain effectiveness

  • New aroma profile while retaining core benefits

  • Expected availability: Spring 2025

Baby Skin (15ml and 1oz)

  • Now features Frankincense Serrata and Lavandin

  • Maintains gentle, skin-supporting properties

  • Same careful attention to safety and efficacy

  • Expected availability: End of 2025

What to Expect
While you'll notice some differences in the aromatic profiles of these products, Rocky Mountain Oils has worked diligently to maintain their therapeutic properties and effectiveness. Our commitment to quality remains unchanged, even as we evolve to protect endangered species.

How to Identify the New Formulations
We understand you'll want to know when you're receiving the new formulations. Here's how to identify them:

  • Watch for notifications through our email newsletter and social media channels

  • Look for "New Formula" labels on product packaging

  • Check product descriptions on our website, which will be updated to reflect the new formulations

  • Contact our customer service team if you're unsure which version you're receiving

Please note that transition dates are approximate and depend on current inventory levels. We'll keep you informed as each new formula becomes available.

Looking Forward
This reformulation represents Rocky Mountain Oils' ongoing commitment to sustainability and responsible sourcing. We believe that by making conscious choices today, we can help protect valuable natural resources for future generations.

Thank you for your continued trust in Rocky Mountain Oils. Together, we're making a positive impact on our planet while maintaining the high standards you've come to expect from RMO.
