Guide for patch testing the skin
1. Use the inside of the wrist or inside of the elbow as a test area.
2. Make sure the area is clean and free of other products.
3. Apply a small amount of the product on the inside of your wrist or inside of your elbow. Leave it on for 24 hours without wetting, washing or rubbing it off.
4. Monitor the spot to see if any irritation occurs in the form of rashes, swelling, soreness, redness or stinging on the spot.
5. If a reaction occurs, gently wash the product off with water and leave the spot alone until it clears up. If a more serious reaction occurs, see your doctor or dermatologist.
6. If no reaction occurs in 24 hours and you want to be extra careful, reapply the product on the same spot the next day and test for another 24 hours.
If no sign of reaction -- itching, redness or swelling occurs after 48 hours, the product should be safe for you to use.
For sensitive and hyper sensitive skin you can also fax or email your doctor or dermatologist the list of ingredients for a 2nd opinion. If you think you need to be patch tested, simply ask your general practitioner (GP) for a referral to a dermatologist. You can access your GP and dermatologist using your Medicare and private health cover.
Longevity On Your Skin, Storage, and Shelf Life
Natural perfume is a journey from top to bottom notes. It evolves on the skin to create a unique scent on the wearer. The longevity of a natural perfume on a skin averages from 4 to 24 hours. This is because it does not have a synthetic and toxic fixatives.
The blend of natural aromatics triggers a series of botanical actives reactions that produces a unique smell to the wearer. The quality and intensity of the smell depends on the amount of fragrance the skin absorbs and how much it evaporates. By placing a clothe on the perfumed skin there is more product absorption and less evaporation. The degree of moisture emitted by the pores of the skin can also influence the amount of fragrance that evaporates. Natural perfume applied to well-hydrated skin that produces a lot of moisture in a dry room at a high temperature will evaporate more quickly. Covered skin is also hotter potentially hydrating the stratum corneum (upper layer of epidermis) well hydrated.
We recommend storing in a cool dark place away from heat, humid and light. This will help maintain its original state. Slight variation in colour and fragrance may occur due to seasonal variation on natural ingredients. Approximate shelf life is 2 years. Please recycle the packaging after use.
