General Instructions
Patch Test First!
Before using any essential oil "neat" (undiluted), do a patch test first. Put a few drops on the back of your wrist or the inside of the elbow and cover with a bandaid. Leave for an hour or more. If irritation or redness occurs, bathe the area with a carrier OIL (e.g. olive oil, safflower oil, Neways' Mixing Oil - NOT water! Water will drive the essential oil deeper into the skin); wipe off and bathe the area again; wipe off and bathe the area again. Do NOT re-cover with a bandaid, but allow air exposure to the tested area for quicker healing. For future use, either reduce the concentration of the essential oil tested by half or more, or avoid it altogether.
You can do the same Patch Test with essential oils that you have diluted (mixed in solution, e.g. with Neways' Mixing Oil or Tangible® Massage Lotion).
Direct "Neat" (Undiluted) Application: "Neat" (undiluted) Lavender Essential Oil and Tea Tree Essential Oil may be applied directly to skin, but Neways recommends diluting all other essential oils. This is especially important for first-time users, children and those with sensitive skin.
A General Note About Using Essential Oils: Western merchandising has stereotypically perpetuated a "more is better" conditioning upon society. Not so with essential oils. Small amounts are able to be effective. Western culture has also perpetuated the "prescription formula" approach - for example, take 3, 3 times a day. Not so with essential oils. Because essential oils are liquid, lipophilic, volatile, aromatic and comprised of very small molecules giving them greater mobility into and within the body, there may be more than one way to effectively use a particular oil.
Starting out, the most important thing is to make sure the essential oils you use on the body are 100% pure, genuine and unadulterated - Neways' are, guaranteed! (Then you know that you are working with the essential oil itself and not with the chemicals and chemical reactions with which it has been adulterated.)
Storage
Store essential oils in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
Keep out of reach of children!
Caution
Never put essential oils in the eyes or the ears. If you accidentally do, use Neways' Mixing Oil to dilute. Never rinse the area with water as water forces the oil deeper into the tissues.
Do not use essential oils internally.
Lemon Essential Oil is phototoxic: do not apply to skin exposed to direct sunlight.
Lemon Essential Oil may be "hot" or irritating to some individuals.
Detailed product description
Lemon Essential Oil can be diffused to help purify the air and soothe colds and congestion.
Topically, Lemon Essential Oil can be applied to help ease warts, support healthy nails, support radiant skin and maintain a healthy epidermis. Lemon Essential Oil may assist in stimulating the immune system.
Renowned for its many historic uses, this yellowish color Essential Oil also supports the digestive, glandular and circulatory systems.
Lemon Essential Oil is said to be an antidepressant (helps alleviate depression), an anti-oxidant (prevents/delays oxidation/deterioration), an antiseptic (destroys and prevents development of microbes - e.g. viruses, pathogenic bacteria), anti-viral (inhibits virus growth), a bactericidal (destroys bacteria), a disinfectant (destroys/inhibits growth of microorganisms that cause disease), a preservative and a tonic (strengthens body).
Extensive studies by occupational psychologists have shown that Lemon Essential Oil's or Wild Rosemary Essential Oil's scent may help with concentration, may reduce stress, and Lavender Essential Oil, interestingly, promotes a desire to buy things. Large Japanese companies are using scent throughout their employees' workstations to help improve their performance - Lemon Essential Oil in the morning for pick-me-up feelings, Rose at lunch time for relaxation, and wood scents, like Rosewood, in the evening for stimulation and refreshment.
Some Lemon Essential Oils are pressed from the peel; however, the highest quality is obtained when the oil is distilled from the whole lemon. Neways' Lemon Essential Oil is distilled rather than cold-pressed giving it an indefinite shelf life. Lemon is the only citrus oil whose fresh scent is preserved when it is distilled which is why it has an indefinite shelf life.
