• Dilution Necessary! – These essential oils must be diluted into a “carrier” to be used on the skin or they can be irritating or harmful. Dilute to 10% EO. 90% Carrier. The following are acceptable carriers: Lavender essential oil, lotion, cream, salve, vegetable oils, alcohol, witch hazel or vinegar.

• If swelling, redness or irritation occurs, discontinue use. Use Olive oil to remove from skin. If you have sensitive skin, try 1 drop of essential oil on the inner arm and monitor effects for 24 hours. Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from eyes. Do not use undiluted on skin.
