Safety is paramount when working with pure essential oils. This blend is potent and should always be diluted with a carrier oil (such as jojoba, almond, or fractionated coconut oil) before topical application. A general guideline is 1-3% dilution (e.g., 5-15 drops of essential oil per ounce of carrier oil). Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If pregnant, nursing, or under a doctor's care, consult your physician before use. Diffuse in a well-ventilated area and start with shorter diffusion times to assess your sensitivity.
