Kukui nut oil offers just the right amount of lubrication without leaving a greasy feeling. Excellent for chapped skin and may prevent scarring.
Have a great day!

Some companies claim
that for best results, I should use essential oils on my skin at full strength
. Others claim I should never use essential oils on my skin at full strength.
Which is it?
The mis-use
of any substance can lead to injury, and essential oils are no exception.
Essential oils are powerful in scent and action and must be treated with
respect for aromatherapy and other uses.
Never Put
Undiluted Essential Oils On Your Skin.
Essential oils
are concentrated liquids and are very powerful substances. They should not be
consumed internally without education from a qualified educator or without
personal counsel from a trained aromatherapist.
Treat Essential Oils with Respect
The following
list includes basic guidelines to promote safety in the use of essential oils:
- Keep all
essential oil bottles out of the reach of children and animals.
- Do not use
on children or animals.
- Do not
apply to the body undiluted.
- Do not take
internally.
- Do not use
if pregnant: consult with a certified health professional with knowledge of
essential oils.
- Do not use
a particular essential oil if you've had a previous adverse reaction to it.
Treat
essential oils with the same care that you treat medicines. You don't need to
be afraid or avoid essential oils and I'm certainly not trying to scare anyone
out of enjoying all the benefits that aromatherapy offers. They can be an
amazing blessing within a holistic lifestyle. Do remember, however, that when
working with essential oils, less is more.
Here are two
rules to follow:
Do not ingest essential oils. They are
concentrated and very potent. In large amounts, they can attack the delicate
linings of your stomach, esophagus, and throat. You can even poison yourself by
taking essential oils by mouth.
