Essential Oil Dilution
When using essential oils, follow basic safety steps to reduce the risk of irritation or sensitization. Always dilute in a carrier oil and use conservative, age-appropriate topical ratios. Avoid high dilutions on large skin areas; use stronger blends only for small, localized areas and short-term use. Keep away from eyes, ears, and other sensitive areas, especially with “hot oils.” Patch test first and examine the area again after 24 hours. Follow product-specific cautions (e.g., sun/UV precautions) and keep oils out of reach of children. If pregnant, breastfeeding, asthmatic, epileptic, on medication, or prone to allergies, seek professional guidance.
