Deep blue touch VS Deep blue roll-on

Deep Blue Touch vs. Deep Blue Roll-On

The most important difference is that the Deep Blue Touch is diluted with fractionated coconut oil, making it gentler and suitable for sensitive skin. The Deep Blue Roll-On is a more concentrated/intense version with a more targeted effect.

Product Family dōTERRA — Deep Blue (soothing blend). dōTERRA — Deep Blue (soothing blend).
Base / Carrier Oil Fractionated Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera) — diluted form of the blend (gentler). No added carrier oil specified in the product information sheet ("pure"/undiluted Deep-Blue oil — more intense effect). Doterra's manufacturer description indicates a more concentrated, stronger sensation.
Dilution Ratio dōTERRA does not disclose the exact percentage of fractionated coconut oil it contains, so official information is not available. (Unreliable) sources on the internet generally estimate the Deep Blue oil content to be between 15-20% and the coconut oil content to be around 80-85%. 100% Deep Blue oil
Sensation / Effect on Skin Gentler, less intense (due to dilution). Suitable for sensitive skin, frequent application. More powerful, cooling/"tingling" sensation — for targeted, intense relief. 
Recommended Use Minor aches, everyday relaxation, for those with sensitive skin. Good for feet, back, neck. Intense muscle pain, targeted massage, when stronger relief is needed.
Precautions Do not apply to open wounds or near the eyes. However, fractionated coconut oil reduces the chance of irritation.  Higher essential oil concentration means a greater chance of irritation for sensitive individuals — avoid eye area and open wounds.
