Because of the potency and concentration of our essential oils and citrus essences, we recommend using them with care. Never apply them neat (directly onto the skin), do not take them internally and use them in conjunction with a botanical carrier. A carrier is a vehicle to enhance the topical penetration of the essential oils into the body. We suggest using Lavanda’s Therapeutic Cream and/or botanical vegetable oils. Using either the cream or vegetable oil, combine 1 teaspoon of the selected botanical carrier with 1 or 2 drops of the essential oil, citrus essence or absolute.
