A carrier oil is a neutral oil, used to dilute essential oils for use in application.
An essential oil is an oil derived from the plant materials by one of several manners.
Most essential oils are not recommended tested for purity undiluted use as the concentrated oils are too strong to be used as is. There are several unpleasant side effects of using many essential oils without diluting them, and yet the benefits of using them diluted are well documented.
