Suggested uses
- Antifungal treatment:Â for foot fungal infections, you may apply the oil neat on the affected area (try to avoid areas with healthy skin, as the oil can cause irritation). Apply the oil using a cotton bud if possible. Otherwise for other areas of the body, dilute 1Â drop of the essential oil in every teaspoon of carrier oil, and apply topically to the affected area. If your skin gets irritated, either discontinue use or dilute it further until your skin can tolerate the oil better.
- Use in a room diffuser - you'll feel like you're at a spa, without even having to leave your home. :)
Safety precautions
- Pregnant women are advised not to use lemongrass essential oil as it may affect foetal development.
- Do not use on children below the age of 2 years.
How to use
How to use
Use in an appropriate essential oil diffuser. Depending on the oil, it may damage some kinds of plastics, so we generally prefer using clay diffusers with tea lights.
Certain essential oils are also lovely as room sprays, insect repellents and linen fresheners.
Some essential oils are toxic to pets. Please read up about them as much as you can before using it around your furbabies.
We do not advocate the ingestion of any essential oils, unless under the direction of a doctor or certified clinical aromatherapist.
Be sure to dilute essential oils if you are looking to apply them to the skin, as most essential oils can irritate the skin when used at full strength.
Do your homework and read extensively for safety and knowledge!
