BEST PRACTICES:
When applying to the skin, always mix Epoch Essential Oils with Epoch Topical Blending Oil. Start out mixing one drop of essential oil with Epoch Topical Blending Oil and work up from there. It is important to know how your skin will respond to essential oils. Test only one essential oil at a time. Mix one drop of Epoch Essential Oil with Epoch Topical Blending Oil and rub on an inconspicuous area of your body (e.g., under the forearm or the underside of the bicep). Wait 30 minutes. Continue using the product if you do not notice irritation. Epoch Brisk, and Epoch Burst contain citrus oils that increase the skin’s sensitivity to sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Wear protective clothing and avoid sun exposure while using these products topically. Wash thoroughly before UV exposure.
