This person is talking about a carrier oil, I think. They are fine to keep in the frig if you plan on using them over a long period of time. Primrose is a carrier oil and has about a one year shelf life.

I don't honestly feel keeping them in the frig extends that shelf life over one year, but it will keep them safe during that time of us.

I know people who do keep them in the frig. keep mine in a cool, cool room with my other oils and mine seem always fresh and fine. I also only buy my carrier oils very fresh and very often, so I don't keep them in house very long.

Primrose and all oils should be kept in the refrigerator to keep them from becoming rancid.

and I've been using and teaching about essential oils since the late 60's.

A cool, dry place - YES. Refrigerator???
