Essential Oil questions
How do I dispose of essential oils?
‘Cos essential oils are not always recycled by your local council, we’ve developed our own recycling program. You can check it out here.
Are your essential oil blends 100% pure?
You betcha. All our products are made using responsibly farmed pure essential oils.
Can I apply essential oils neat on my skin?
Nope. We don’t recommend essential oils be used neat on your skin as their concentration could cause a skin reaction. Essential oils should always be diluted before application. You can learn more about diluting essential oils safely, here.
Are essential oils safe for diffusing around babies & kids?
Hmmmm, not really. We don’t recommend using essential oils on children under 3 years of age. We also don’t recommend using our skincare range on children because it’s not a safe dilution for teeny weeny ones. But, good news… our Aromatherapy Bath Bombs are safe for all kids over 3.
Are essential oils safe during pregnancy?
Some essential oils are safe to be used in pregnancy after the first trimester (12 weeks). We recommend only using a 1% dilution when it comes to applying essential oils to your skin with a carrier oil. For example - 1 drop per 10ml of carrier oil. Pregnancy safe essential oils include Neroli, Lavender, Roman Chamomile, German Chamomile & Geranium. We recommend using our Nimki Peaceful Warrior blend in your diffuser to promote relaxation during pregnancy.
Which essential oils are safe for pets?
Essential oils & pet safety is currently not well understood. As a result you should proceed with caution when it comes to using essential oils around your furry friends. We do know cats do not tolerate essential oils well because they have sensitive livers, so if you’re diffusing in a home with kitties ensure periods of diffusing are limited & the room is always ventilated.
How can I use essential oils in my bath?
Mmmmm, we love a good soak in our fav blends too. Add 3-5 drops of our essential oil blends into your bath. However, because essential oils are not water soluble & work best when used with a dispersant or carrier oil, we recommend using one of our Pure Aromatherapy Bath Bombs for full soak & soothe benefits.
Can I ingest essential oils?
Please don’t. We don’t recommend ingesting essential oils as it’s potentially very harmful to your health due to their highly concentrated nature.
Are your essential oils sourced locally & are they organic?
You can learn more about which of our essential oils are grown by Australian farmers & certified organic, right here.
How do I dispose of my ultrasonic diffuser?
Your Nimki diffuser is 100% recyclable through our recycling program.
