Essential oils are concentrated and should be used with care. Each essential oil has its own properties. Please refer to books or consult an aromatherapist to choose right oils. Apart from a few exceptions, they should not be used directly on the skin. Prepare correct dilution and check sensitivity by applying small amount to a part of the arm. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. For children or babies, or if pregnant, or have a medical condition, consult a doctor or a professional aromatherapist. Keep essential oils out of reach of children and away from eyes, and never take them internally unless professionally advised.
