Precautions for Using Essential Oils 

While essential oils are a beautiful addition to your Valentine’s Day, it’s important to use them safely. Always dilute essential oils with a carrier oil before applying them to the skin to avoid irritation. If you or your partner are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have underlying health conditions, consult a healthcare provider before using certain oils. Be mindful of allergies by performing a patch test before applying any blend. Lastly, ensure proper ventilation when diffusing oils, and avoid ingesting them unless directed by a certified aromatherapist.
