Essential Oils Safety Information

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience using our essential oils in oil burners, please follow these guidelines:

  • Do Not Consume: Essential oils are for external use only and should not be ingested. Keep them away from food and drink.

  • Use with a Suitable Oil Burner: Only use essential oils in oil burners designed for this purpose. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper use.

  • Dilute with Water: Add a few drops of essential oil to water in the oil burner's dish. Never use essential oils undiluted in the burner.

  • Keep Away from Children and Pets: Place the oil burner in a location that is out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental contact or ingestion.

  • Avoid Direct Contact with Skin: Do not apply undiluted essential oils directly to the skin. If contact occurs, rinse the area with water and seek medical advice if necessary.

  • Use in Well-Ventilated Areas: Ensure the room is well-ventilated when using essential oils in an oil burner to disperse the aroma evenly and avoid overpowering scents.

  • Do Not Leave Unattended: Never leave a lit oil burner unattended. Extinguish the tea light or heating element before leaving the room or going to sleep.

  • Choose the Right Tea Light: Use only unscented, four-hour tea lights in your oil burner. Longer-burning or scented tea lights may cause overheating or damage to the burner.

  • Flammability Warning: Keep essential oils and the oil burner away from flammable materials and open flames. Ensure the burner is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.

  • Do Not Overfill the Dish: Avoid overfilling the oil burner’s dish with water and essential oil. Overfilling can cause the mixture to spill or boil over.

  • Allow the Burner to Cool: Do not move or touch the oil burner while it is hot. Allow it to cool completely before handling or refilling.

  • Discontinue Use if Adverse Reactions Occur: If you or anyone in the room experiences discomfort, such as headaches or dizziness, discontinue use immediately and ventilate the area.

  • Store Properly: Store essential oils in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the bottles tightly sealed to preserve their quality.

    Consult a Healthcare Professional: If you have health concerns, allergies, or are pregnant, consult a healthcare professional before using essential oils.
