Storage conditions
Essential oils are sensitive to UV radiation as well as to the progressive evaporation of their constituents. It is therefore imperative to store your essential oils in colored glass or aluminum bottle with a tight seal at a temperature between 5 ° C and 40 ° C.
Precautions
- Not recommended for pregnant women (especially during the first three months of pregnancy) and nursing mothers. - Not recommended for inhalation in sensitive asthmatic subjects, because of its eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) content. - Avoid contact with the eyes. - Certain natural compounds contained in this essential oil can present a risk of allergy in certain sensitive people when the essential oil is incorporated in a cosmetic composition: limonene and, to a lesser extent, linalool. - As a general rule, always make an application test of your preparation, in the crease of the elbow, at least 48 hours before using it. |
