Safety
Hazards: Phototoxic (moderate risk); Skin sensitization if oxidized.
Contraindications (dermal): If applied to uncovered skin, it must not be exposed to sunlight or sunbed rays for 12 hours.
Cautions: Old or oxidized oils should be avoided.
Our Recommendations: Apply topically to areas that will be covered with clothing to protect from phototoxicity. If pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have liver or kidney disfunction, consult your health care practitioner before use. Avoid eyes, mucous membranes, and sensitive skin. Keep out of reach of children.
If applying an essential oil to your skin always perform a small patch test to an insensitive part of the body (If it is not already diluted, dilute with a carrier oil).
Because of its (+)-limonene content we recommend that oxidation of expressed lime oil is avoided by storage in a dark, airtight container in a refrigerator, or cool area for longest shelf life. The addition of an antioxidant to preparations containing it is recommended.

Laynee Davina is one of my favorite EO brands. Their oils are wonderful, absolutely comparable with higher priced oils. I own about 10 of them now and will continue buying. The price is unbeatable. you can't go wrong with any of their oils. Fantastic product!

Jane D. This oil is fabulous. I've been diffusing it with their ylang ylang, wild orange, and cedarwood. It fills our house with the most incredible clean floral scent. This lime is powerful, clean, and bright. Very high quality!

A.C. I put some in my diffuser and WOW! the smell is great! It is a very true scent, and doesn't have any sweetness to it, so it is very lime-y! Love that they didn't try to make it smell sweet, as the citric scent was what I was going for! Couldn't be happier!
