• Skin use : Cypress essential oil should never be used pure on the skin, but should be diluted in a fatty substance, such as vegetable oils (olive oil, sunflower oil, almond oil, etc.), oleolites, or creams. When mixed with either vegetable oil (or cream), the recommended dilution is: 4 drops per tablespoon of vegetable oil/cream for children, and 6-7 drops of essential oil per tablespoon of vegetable oil/cream for adults.

• Ingestion : Erbe di Mauro's Cypress essential oil is certified for food use, so it can also be ingested. Add a drop to a sugar cube, a teaspoon of honey, or, better yet, a teaspoon of vegetable oil (such as coconut or olive oil). Dosages should never exceed 2 drops at a time.

  NB : Essential oils for internal use can interfere with many medications. Therefore, if you are taking any medications, consult a healthcare professional before taking essential oils.

All essential oils naturally contain potentially allergenic molecules such as cinnamaldehyde, citronellol, eugenol, citral, coumarin, limonene, linalool, geraniol, etc., which can therefore trigger allergic reactions. For this reason, we recommend testing them before use by applying 1 drop dissolved in 30 ml of olive oil (or other vegetable oil) to the skin of the forearm and waiting 48 hours to see if any allergies develop.
