Directions for Use

For Aromatherapy: Add 2–4 drops to a diffuser filled with the manufacturer-recommended amount of water. Begin with a small quantity because Lemongrass Oil has a strong aroma.

For Topical Use: Dilute 1 drop in at least 10 ml of a suitable carrier oil before applying to the skin.

For Massage: Add 2–3 drops to 30 ml of sweet almond, jojoba, fractionated coconut or another suitable carrier oil.

For Hair and Scalp Care: Add 1–2 drops to 15 ml of coconut, jojoba, argan or another suitable carrier oil. Massage gently into the scalp and wash thoroughly after use.

For Facial Care: Add no more than 1 drop to 15 ml of a suitable facial carrier oil or unscented skincare base. Apply sparingly after performing a patch test.

For Bath Use: Mix 1–2 drops thoroughly with a prepared bath base or suitable cosmetic solubiliser before adding to warm bathwater. Never add undiluted essential oil directly to the bath.

Lemongrass Oil is highly concentrated and may cause skin irritation or allergic sensitisation, particularly when used at excessive concentrations. Always dilute conservatively and perform a patch test before first use.

Avoid contact with the eyes, face, inner ears, mucous membranes and other sensitive areas. Do not apply to broken, inflamed, freshly shaved or highly sensitive skin.

Cosmetic and perfumery applications should follow the supplier’s current Certificate of Analysis, Safety Data Sheet and batch-specific IFRA documentation.

Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid applying near the face or hands of infants and young children.

Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, while taking medication or if you have allergies, sensitive skin or a medical condition.

Use diffusers intermittently in a spacious, well-ventilated room. Allow children and pets to move away from the aromatic area.

Discontinue use if redness, burning, itching, coughing, headache or breathing discomfort occurs. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry and dark place away from direct sunlight, heat, sparks and open flames.
