Can essential oils be ingested?

We do not recommend ingesting essential oils. They are highly concentrated and may cause harm if swallowed without guidance from a qualified healthcare professional.

Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?

Pure essential oils are very concentrated and should generally be diluted in a carrier oil before applying to the skin. A patch test is always recommended to check for sensitivities. All of our products, with the exception of diffuser blends, have been diluted with a carrier oil and are safe for topical application.

Always check with your veterinarian before introducing essential oils around animals.
