- Can I put these oils straight on my skin?
- Rosehip seed oil is a carrier oil and can go on skin undiluted. Bergamot and tea tree are essential oils and should be diluted in a carrier oil first, especially tea tree, which stings neat.
- Is bergamot oil phototoxic?
- Yes. Cold-pressed bergamot contains bergapten, which makes skin more sensitive to sunlight. Keep bergamot-treated skin out of direct sun for about 12 hours, or use it only in a diffuser.
- Can I use these in an ultrasonic diffuser?
- Bergamot and tea tree work well in a water-based diffuser. Rosehip seed is a thick carrier oil and should not go in a diffuser; it is for skin only.
- How does this set compare with a single large bottle?
- You get variety instead of volume. A single large bottle suits one routine; this set lets you try three oils, but each bottle is smaller and runs out sooner.
- How should I store them?
- Keep the bottles cool, dark and tightly capped. Rosehip seed is the most fragile and will turn rancid within months once opened, so use it first.
- Is tea tree oil safe for acne?
- Diluted tea tree is a common spot treatment and has some evidence against mild acne. Patch-test first, and stop if skin stings or peels.
