HOW TO SAFELY USE ESSENTIAL OILS ON CHILDREN
As you prepare to use essential oils on and around your children, it is crucial that you practice safe usage. Essential oils are extremely concentrated and potent, and a child's skin is more permeable than an adult's. When using essential oils on and around your child, remember these safety points:
- Always, always, always dilute! Check out our dilution chart below if you need help knowing how much you should dilute an oil. Our Kids Line of essential oil blends is also pre-diluted to apply topically safely.
- A little goes a long way. Because essential oils are so concentrated, all you need is about a drop or two in a 10ml bottle of carrier oil. Again, check out our dilution guide for all age-related dilution rates.
- Practice safe diffusion. When diffusing essential oils, diffuse in an open and well-ventilated area. Keep children out of the direct line of mist—diffuse oils in 30 to 60-minute intervals with ample break periods in between.
- Avoid hot oils or oils that are not safe for children; this includes applying these oils topically and diffusing them. Check out this list of safe oils to use, depending on your child's age.
- Avoid applying essential oils near your child's nose, mouth, eyes, ears, or other sensitive areas.
- Store your essential oils out of reach of children.
- Do not allow your child to ingest essential oils.
- Be sure to always perform a patch test before applying essential oils to larger areas of skin. After completing the patch test, watch for negative responses, such as skin irritation, headache, nausea, respiratory complaints, or dizziness.
