Keep out of the reach of children. Do not use in pregnant or breastfeeding women. Do not use in children under 6 years old. For people with asthma and epilepsy, please ask your doctor for advice. Do not use this EO in case of anti-coagulant treatment.
This EO is irritating to the skin, so always dilute it to 20% in vegetable oil. It is also dermocaustic in its pure state. Due to the presence of allergens, it is best to do a test before using it (1 to 2 drops in the bend of the elbow and wait 24 hours for there to be no reaction).
