Essential Oils

Essential oils have and are being used in medicine, cosmetics, perfumes, food and aromatherapy. Some essential oils can be applied to the skin, others are best taken orally.

**Do not ingest or topically apply any essential oils unless you are absolutely certain that they can be used this way**

Not all essential oils are safe to take internally and some can irritate the skin. Essential oils are a concentrated source of many phytochemicals and some essential oils must be diluted with an unscented carrier oil to be used safely on skin.

One of the primary benefits of essential oils is that, when used properly, they offer many benefits and have few, if any, side effects. Many essential oils are effective against harmful organisms. Some can positively affect your mood and mental state. Some essential oils can even help you reduce a headache or feelings of nausea.
