Always dilute prior to topical application. We recommend conducting a patch test before extensive topical use. Patch test by applying the oil to a small section of your skin and leaving it for about 15 minutes. Check for any skin irritations or allergic reactions before committing to topical use. Avoid contact with mucous membranes, eyes, and the inside of the mouth, nose, and ears. Do not ingest. Do not use it while pregnant or breastfeeding.
NOTE: Clove Bud is a "hot" oil that may cause irritation in sensitive individuals. Always perform a dermal patch test prior to extensive topical use by applying a small amount of oil to one area of the skin and waiting 15 minutes to see if an allergic reaction or sensitivity occurs. Do not use it with heating pads or hot water bottles.
