Essentiel Oils
  • colourblind
    Recently i read an article saying that "Essential oils may become allergenic on contact with oxygen in the air and certain skin enzymes, according to recent research.", so what about essentiel oils from Decleor or Darphin which costs a bomb for 15ml? Does that means that they are just useless??

    It's spelled Essential Oils

    All essential oils have been exposed to oxygen. A adverse or "allergic" reaction to an essential oil would be dependent upon the body of person using it, not the exposure to oxygen.

    Essential oils are not supposed to be used on skin, because they can easily cause allergic reaction. You need to delude them with water - a bunch of water and a few drops of the oil. I use them when i get flue or cold to do inhalations. and believe me the few first seconds my eyes sting like hell from that steam, it is very irritating. and i use expensive oils.

    Yes, you need to dilute them with water :)
