In this highly educational episode, I sit down with the creator and owner of Nourish The Dermis, Melissa Martinez, for an anticipated chat regarding ESSENTIAL OIL SAFETY. Melissa is also a certified aromatherapist and specializes in customizable, clean skincare, and she and I have an incredibly helpful and balanced conversation surrounding this controversial topic. 

• What exactly are EOs?
• Why does oil quality matter?
• What are the best application methods?
• How do I dilute them?
• Safety and Prevention
• Is diffusing EOs harmless?
• What do I do if I have a reaction?
• How to take a conservative approach to using EOs
• What about pet safety?
• Can I use with my baby or my child?
• Contraindications for use

You will gain enough insight to make well-informed choices for you and your family, as the power should always be in your hands at the end of the day. Please see below for further resources!
