Aromatherapist's Tip: Cold-pressed Lemon is phototoxic. When applying to skin in leave-on products (like facial oils or body lotions), avoid direct sunlight or UV exposure on the application area for at least 12 hours, or use it primarily in rinse-off formulations, evening routines, and room diffusers!
