Our Recommendations:  If pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or if you have liver or kidney dysfunction, consult your physician before use. Avoid eyes, mucous membranes, and sensitive skin. Keep out of reach of children. Do not attempt to replace prescription medications with essential oils. Â
If applying an essential oil to your skin always perform a small patch test on an insensitive part of the body (If it is not already diluted, dilute with a carrier oil).
Store in a covered or dark, airtight container in the refrigerator or cool area for the longest shelf life.
