Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?

Many essential oils need to be diluted before being applied to the skin; otherwise, their high concentration may cause irritation.

Can pregnant women use essential oils?

Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before using essential oils, as they can affect hormones and the impact on the baby during development is not well understood.

What is the difference between natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances?
