PrecautionsAs with all essential oils we do not recommend using Geranium during pregnancy. As geranium regulates the hormonal system caution should be taking that it is not masking an underlying problem. Geranium may cause irritation to sensitive skin in larger doses. When using on eczema, use on "dry type" eczema, not "weepy" type where Blue Chamomile would be more appropriate. |
