***Keep essential oils out of reach of children. - Never use undiluted essential oil on the skin: add it to a carrier oil (jojoba, hazelnut, coco, sweet almond). Only Lavender, Chamomile, Tea tree oils can be applied directly on the skin, in small quantity (1-2 drops). - Possible allergic reactions: test it before use; apply one drop of the diluted essential oil on the inside of your elbow or back of your knee. Cover it with a Band-Aid and wait 24 hours to see if there is any form of reaction. - Eyes and ears: never use essential oil near your eyes or in your ears. - Pregnancy, lactation: there is evidence that a few oils are possible abortifacients; dangers for the foetus or the baby are also a risk. - Children: check for any allergic reactions; see a qualified aromatherapist. - Epilepsy, high blood pressure: a few essential oils present risk to people with epilepsy or highblood pressure. - Oral administration: great caution should be exercised, since a greater concentration is likely to reach the bloodstream. Oral administration can take place only under the guidance of a qualified trained aromatherapist. - Phototoxicity: some essential oils are photosensitising; avoid them prior to sunbathing. - Keep bottles of essential oils tightly closed and store them in a cool location away from light. ***If you have any doubts or questions, please consult a qualified aromatherapist. |
