Usage and Safety Guidelines

Storage: Store in dark glass bottles away from heat, light, and moisture. Keep tightly capped to prevent oxidation. Refrigeration can extend shelf life in hot climates. Replace if aroma weakens significantly.

Quality Indicators: Pure lemongrass oil should have strong, fresh lemony aroma with grassy undertones. Color should be yellow to amber. Weak scent or dark coloration indicates age degradation or poor quality.

Maximum Dermal Use: Do not exceed 0.7% dilution for leave-on skincare products due to high citral content which can cause sensitization with repeated use.

Oxidation Risk: Lemongrass oil can oxidize over time, increasing skin sensitization risk. Replace every 1-2 years or if aroma changes. Always keep bottle tightly sealed when not in use.

Best Carrier Oils: Coconut oil provides excellent moisturizing properties. Jojoba oil closely matches skin natural oils. Sweet almond oil is light and nourishing. Grapeseed oil works excellently for oily skin types.
