Our products are meticulously designed to cater to all skin types, ensuring their safety and compatibility for every individual. However, some essential oils or active ingredients might irritate, sensitise, or trigger responses in some people. Here are some precautions to consider:
Know your allergies: Be aware of any allergies you may have to specific plants or botanicals. Avoid using essential oils derived from plants that you are allergic to
Patch test: Before using any essential oil on a larger area of your skin, conduct a patch test. Apply a diluted solution of the essential oil to a small patch of skin and wait for 24-48 hours to observe any adverse reactions. If redness, itching, swelling, or irritation occurs, discontinue use
Start slowly: If you are new to using essential oils, start with a small amount and observe your body's response. Gradually increase usage if no adverse reactions occur
Avoid direct contact: Avoid applying undiluted essential oils directly to the skin, particularly on sensitive areas or broken skin. Inhalation methods, such as using a diffuser, may be a safer option for some individuals
Dilution: Always dilute essential oils before applying them to the skin, especially if you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies. Mixing essential oils with a carrier oil can help reduce the risk of irritation
