Shelf
life:
Pure
essential oils do not go rancid and they don't really have a hardset expiration
date. Over time, however, essential oils can oxidize, deteriorate and gradually
lose their therapeutic value and aromatic quality. The shelf life of essential
oils can be maximized by keeping their caps tightly closed and keeping them
refrigerated or in a cool, dry location away from sunlight and heat.
Safety
Information:
Possible
skin sensitivity. Keep out of reach of children. If you are pregnant, nursing,
or under a doctor’s care, consult your physician. Avoid contact with eyes,
inner ears, and sensitive areas. Do not apply undiluted essential oils on skin.
For external use only.
