Safety Precautions Organic palmarosa essential oil must be diluted in a carrier oil before applying to the skin. If undiluted essential oil is applied directly to the skin, it could cause irritation, redness or an allergic reaction. Like all essential oils, we suggest doing a small patch test with the diluted oil. This is to make sure there are no sensitive areas on the skin and to avoid an allergic reaction. Always keep your essential oils out of reach of children and avoid contact with eyes. Palmarosa organic essential oil is not a food grade product and is for external use only.
