Myrrh Essential Oil has a smoky, sweet and musky aroma, this wonderful oil has been used since ancient times and is prized for its grounding, soothing and clarifying benefits for both the mind and body. This essential oil is also natural cleansing and popular for use in skincare, it is especially beneficial to dry or damaged skin. This oil is distilled from the resin of the Commiphora shrub. Myrrh is naturally a viscous oil which can sometimes solidify, for this reason we have added wider dropper to this bottle, however you may still need to warm the bottle in your hands or in some warm water to help loosen the oil before use.

When used correctly, essential oils are completely safe and have a wide variety of uses. They are, however, very concentrated and powerful so certain precautions should be taken. If in any doubt about their safe use or effects, consult a qualified aromatherapist or seek medical advice. Some general guidelines for safe use are:

• Do not take Essential Oils internally unless under the supervision of a Qualified Practitioner licensed to prescribe oils for internal use
• Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes
• Seek professional/medical advice before use if you are pregnant
• Seek advice from a qualified Aromatherapist before using any essential oils on babies and small children
• Seek medical advice before use if you have a medical condition (such as epilepsy, high blood pressure, etc)
• If you have an adverse reaction to an essential oil, stop use immediately and seek professional/medical advice
• Do not use essential oils undiluted on the skin (or undiluted in the bath)
• Some essential oils have specific contra-indications – always follow the individual precautions given by Absolute Aromas.
