    Is this safe for use during pregnancy?
    Use this oil with care, best used in a diffuser or diluted with a carrier oil (1% ratio). Avoid using essential oils during the first trimester unless you are under the supervision of a qualified practitioner. See our full list of pregnancy safe oils in our FAQs.

     

    Is this safe for children?
    Lemon is a great choice for encouraging happy days, uplifting, digestive complaints and sniffles. Essential oils are considered too strong for use on babies’ skin (0-24 months) and can be overwhelming on their developing systems. When using in a diffuser, use fewer drops then that for an adult (eg. 2-3 drops). See our ECO. Little range for appropriate, kid-friendly blends. Read more about Aromatherapy for Babies and Children and see our FAQ page for which essential oils to avoid.

     

    Is this safe to use around pets?
    Citrus (including Lemon) essential oils are not recommended for use around pets. See our full list of pet safe oils in our FAQs.

     

    Can I ingest this oil?
    Essential oils should not be taken internally unless you have consulted with a health professional or Aromatherapist first.
