How to use
essential oils
safely

»^ Do not apply essential oils
directly to the skin. Always
use carrier oils such as sweet
almond, olive, or sesame.
»^ Citrus-based essential oils,^
such as neroli can make skin
extremely sensitive to sun
exposure, so avoid being in direct
sunlight when using them.
»^ If in doubt – consult! You can
contact a licensed aromatherapist
for help.
»^ Rule of thumb: less is more.
Essential oils are around 50 times
more potent than the herb.
»^ Never take oils internally.
»^ Always do your research^
before using essential oils,
and then enjoy!
