Lemon Essential Oil

Description

Caution:

Keep the cap tightly closed: Keep the cap tightly closed after each use to avoid accelerated oxidation and volatilisation of essential oils in contact with air.

Store in dark glass bottles: essential oils should be stored in dark glass bottles which reduce UV rays by 90% and should not be placed in plastic bottles or ironware as this may cause chemical reactions and deterioration.

Store in cool and dry place: essential oils may deteriorate in high temperatures, humidity and when exposed to UV light, so they should be kept in an airtight space,
preferably at 25°C, and never in a fridge.

Avoid inadvertent ingestion: For external use only. Store carefully and do not allow children to ingest.

Not suitable for direct application: essential oils are highly concentrated and can be overdosed or irritated unless you have been instructed to use pure essential oils directly on the body.

Allergy Test: As everyone’s skin is different, please carry out a skin allergy test before using the oil, dilution is recommended. The test is carried out by applying the oil to delicate areas of the skin, such as behind the ears, elbows or inner arms, using cotton and leaving it on for 30 minutes.

Do not apply essential oils to sensitive areas: all essential oils, even if diluted, should not be applied to sensitive areas such as the eyes, ears, genitals and mucous membranes. If essential oils are accidentally splashed in the eyes, they should be washed with plenty of water and a doctor should be consulted immediately.

Blending Dosage: Do not use more than 3-5% of the dose. Generally speaking, 10ml of essential oil will give about 200d, so 5% is about 10d. To blend a carrier oil, 10ml of carrier oil with less than 10 drops of essential oil is a safe dose. If you prefer to make your own blend, please note that you should not use more than 3 oils at a time and that compounding is safer than using a single blend.

Avoid photosensitivity: some essential oils (especially citrus oils) are photosensi- tive to sunlight (UV rays) and should not be exposed to sunlight for several hours after use on the face to avoid darkening the skin. For example: bergamot, lemon, etc.

Overheated storage: Aromatherapy is a flammable material, do not use near heat sources or flames.
