Storage
Essential oils are sensitive to UV radiation and to the gradual evaporation of their volatile constituents. It is therefore essential to store your essential oils in a dark glass or aluminium bottle with a tightly fitting cap, at a temperature between 5°C and 40°C (41°F and 104°F).
As it is dermocaustic, do not apply undiluted to the skin. Use strongly diluted in your blends for cutaneous use. Use with caution on sensitive or allergic skin. Do not use on people allergic to cinnamon.
Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, or on children.
Internal use limited to short treatments in limited doses. Do not use for prolonged periods without medical advice.
Atmospheric diffusion of cinnamon essential oil alone is not recommended as it contains a high concentration of cinnamaldehyde and may cause irritation of the respiratory tract. For diffusion, we recommend using a maximum of 5-10% , blended with milder essential oils (Orange, Lemon, grapefruit, etc.).
Not recommended for people taking anticoagulant medication or with coagulation disorders.
Keep out of reach of children.
Certain natural compounds contained in this essential oil may present a risk of allergy in some sensitive individuals when the essential oil is incorporated into a cosmetic composition (according to the 7th Amendment to the European Cosmetics Directive (2003/15/EC)): cinnamaldehyde and, to a lesser extent, (E)-cinnamyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate.
As a general rule, always carry out a test application of your preparation in the crease of the elbow at least 48 hours before using it.
