Welcome to the Aromatic Wisdom Podcast!
In this episode, Liz continues the conversation about skin safety when using essentials. In AWP Episode 036 you learned about Phototoxicity in Episode 37 you’ll learn what essential oil irritation looks like as well as Sensitization.
If you like to use essential oils undiluted directly from the bottle onto the skin, then you really need to hear this episode.
Enjoy the podcast! It is my sincere hope that you will feel inspired to explore essential oils deeper after listening and learn what is possible for your health and well-being when you include aromatherapy into your life.

- How to avoid skin irritation from essential oils
- What is essential oil sensitization
- The signs of chemical sensitization
- How to tell the difference between essential oil irritation and skin sensitization

Thanks so much for sharing about your allergy to Kombu. I had the same thing happen to me and was thinking that I must be some kind of oddball! It took me a couple of times using it to figure it out and when I did I was surprised as I never really though about being allergic to butters. Also I don’t have any allergies and have never had any skin issues from using any products (except maybe some things being drying or too oily for me). It’s always comforting (in some kind of weird way) to find out you are not the only one. Thanks, Liz!
What a valuable episode Liz and I personally loved this episode as there is way too little information available for oil sensitization and irritation caused by oil sensitization. Thank you for sharing all the details related to the same, I have shared this post with a few of my friends who would love to listen this podcast as well.

I have a Question: Is the airbag massager helpful to recover back tissues and muscles?
Hi Lisa, thank you for your kind words on this important episode and your friends will thank you for sharing it with them! As for the airbag massager, I am unfamiliar with that product. Thank you for writing and listening! Liz
