The cream contains naturally occurring compounds found in certain essential oils (Linalool, Geraniol, Citronellol, Limonene), which may be allergens for some sensitive individuals.
To ensure safe use:
Perform a skin tolerance test:
- Apply a small amount of the product to the inside of your wrist or behind your ear.
- Leave it on for 24 hours without rinsing.
- If redness, itching, or irritation occurs, do not use the product.
Avoid applying to irritated or damaged skin:
- Allergens can penetrate more easily through compromised skin, increasing the risk of a reaction.
Use according to your skin’s sensitivity:
- If you have very sensitive skin or are known to react to essential oils, consult a dermatologist before use.
Store the product properly:
- Keep it away from heat and direct light to preserve the stability of essential oils and prevent oxidation of allergenic components.
Avoid combining with other heavily fragranced products:
- Limit the simultaneous use of skincare containing essential oils or strong fragrances, as this may increase the allergenic load.
Caution during pregnancy or breastfeeding:
- Some essential oils, such as tea tree or lavender, may not be recommended. Consult a healthcare professional if in doubt.
Specific precautions for labeled allergens (Linalool, Geraniol, Citronellol, Limonene):
- These compounds are present in small amounts in essential oils (geranium, lavender, tea tree). They are declared on the label in accordance with European regulations.
- If you know you are allergic to any of these compounds, avoid applying the cream.
