Things to remember when using essential oils:
|
- Never take essential oils internally unless directed by a medical doctor or other alternative medical practitioner. If essential oils are swallowed in any quantity, consult physician immediately.
- Pregnant women should consult a doctor before using essential oils. Get a book that will give you information regarding each type of oil and if it is safe for use during pregnancy.
- Essential oils should be kept out of reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet or container.
- Undiluted essential oils can cause skin irritation. Before applying them to the skin, it is recommended that you perform a patch test or dilute them with carrier oils before applying to the body.
- If essential oils come in contact with the eyes, flush immediately with cold water. Consult a physician if irritation or inflammation persist.
- Epileptics should refrain from use.
- This information was produced for the benefit of those who enjoy the safe, responsible use of essential oils. We cannot be responsible for any misadventures resulting from their inappropriate use.
- All pure essential oils eventually reach a point when they lose their fragrance and therapeutic properties. Most will last over a year, and some, like patchouli will actually improve with age.
- To prolong shelf life of your pure oils, keep them sealed tightly in dark bottles and store in cool, dark place.
