Congratulations on your pregnancy! During the first trimester, it is recommended that Essentials Oils are used in minimal concentration. The percentage that we use in our products is between 0.04%-0.78%.
This is far below the recommended level so we do not consider them to be a risk. However, if you have any concerns we advise that you consult your GP or midwife.
Our founder, Sarah, used the full range throughout the entirety of both her pregnancies and felt comfortable with this decision. However, it's important that you consider what is right for you.
As a precaution, there is one that we do not advise using in any trimester. This is due to Basil Oil which is not recommended while pregnant.
- Viper's Gloss - Omega Rich Night Oil (Basil Oil)
