5. Continuous use of essential oils is not recommended.
Precautions for external use:
1. As a precaution, it is recommended not to use essential oils on children under 3 years of age and pregnant or lactating women. True lavender and Eucalyptus radiata are exceptions to this.
2. Never apply undiluted to the skin. Dilute in a vegetable oil, cream, gel, or shampoo, also for use in the bath! Some essential oils can be applied pure to the skin after advice from a healthcare professional.
3. Essential oils naturally contain components that can cause allergic reactions in hypersensitive people (e.g., citral, d-limonene, linalool, geraniol, citronellol, etc.). These components are always listed on the packaging. Before using an essential oil on the skin, it is wise to do an allergy test. Dilute one drop of essential oil in 10 ml of vegetable oil and apply this to the inside of your elbow. If the skin does not feel red or itchy after 24 hours, you are not allergic.
4. All citrus essential oils are photosensitising! Photosensitisation is the result of an interaction between UV rays and a sensitising substance. The skin becomes red and looks burnt. Avoid exposure to UV rays for at least 12 hours after use on the skin!
5. Avoid contact with eyes, ears, nose, and mucous membranes! In case of accidental contact: immediately 'rinse' with vegetable oil.
