FAQs

What does '100% Pure' mean for this essential oil?

It means the oil contains only the specified essential oil (Wintergreen leaf oil) without any added synthetic fragrances, fillers, or carrier oils.

How should I dilute the essential oil for topical use?

Mix 1 to 4 drops of essential oil into your favorite unscented lotion or a carrier oil (like jojoba, coconut, or almond oil). Ensure you do not exceed 4 drops per application.

Can I ingest this essential oil?

No, this essential oil is for external use only. Do not ingest it. It is not a medication and should not be used for curative purposes.

What is the 'Botanical Fingerprint Technology'?

This technology is used by Nature's Answer to test and verify the authenticity and purity of their essential oils, ensuring that nothing has been added or subtracted from the original plant extract.

How should I store the essential oil?

Store the oil in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep the bottle tightly capped and out of reach of children.

Is this product safe for children?

Keep out of reach of children. While the oil is natural, it is potent and should be used with caution around children, especially for topical application, which always requires dilution.

What is the expiration date for essential oils?

Essential oils do not typically have a strict expiration date like pharmaceuticals, but their potency can diminish over time. Proper storage in a cool, dark place helps preserve their quality for longer. It's best to use them within 1-3 years for optimal aroma and therapeutic properties.

Troubleshooting

Oil appears cloudy or has separated.

This can occur with natural oils. Gently warm the bottle in your hands or a warm water bath (do not immerse the cap) and roll gently between your palms to re-homogenize. Store upright in a cool, dry place.

Skin irritation after topical application.

You may be using the oil without sufficient dilution. Always dilute with a carrier oil (e.g., jojoba, coconut) before applying to the skin. Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before wider application. Discontinue use if irritation persists.

Weak or no aroma when diffused.

Ensure your diffuser is clean and functioning correctly. The amount of oil used might need adjustment based on room size and diffuser type. Start with 3-5 drops and increase if necessary.
