HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OIL ROLL-ONS
Before deciding where to place your essential oil roll-on, it is helpful to identify the purpose of using the roll-on and the effect you wish to achieve. There are two main purposes for using a pre-blended essential oil roll-on: for fragrance and for supporting wellness.
Essential oil roll-ons as perfume – Given the rich aroma of essential oils, they serve as a natural substitute to traditional perfumes. Fragrances enables one to express their personal style and while complementing an outfit. Roll-ons that include Lavender, Geranium, and Ylang Ylang essential oils are quintessential notes in popular perfumes, making them excellent choices for individual application to achieve a simple, natural fragrance.
Essential oil roll-ons for aromatherapy – Essential oil roll-ons offer a convenient way to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy on-the-go. Since essential oils are renowned for alleviating stress, promoting better sleep, and boosting overall wellness, roll-ons allow you to have precise control of when and where to apply the oils. Applying roll-ons to pulse points can also enhance the therapeutic benefits of essential oils.
WHERE TO APPLY ESSENTIAL OIL ROLL-ONS
When applying essential oil roll-ons as a perfume, some of the most effective places to apply them is behind the ear lobes, on the forearms, and on the pulse points of the wrists and neck. Applying the roll-ons behind the tops of the ears is also effective because that area is slightly oilier than the bottom of the ears, which ensures longer-lasting aroma.
For aromatherapy purposes, the pulse points are ideal areas to apply roll-ons because the skin is thinner, and the veins are more prominent. Facilitating smooth absorption of the essential oils into the bloodstream.
Temples (the temporal artery) – This is a very common area for massage, especially when experiencing headaches and migraines. Essential oil roll-ons that include Peppermint, Eucalyptus, and Tea Tree oils can help alleviate head tensions and promote mental clarity.
Insides of wrists (the radial artery) – The inner wrists are amongst the most common pulse point to apply essential oil roll-ons.
Behind the ears – The skin behind the ears is thinner and more absorbent, making it an effective place for the oils to access the blood stream. Applying essential oils behind the ears is also believed to provide relief from aches and certain types of inflammation.
Other common pulse points for applying essential oil roll-ons include the inner elbow (the brachial artery), behind the knees (the popliteal artery), the side of the neck (the carotid artery), the top of the feet (the dorsalis pedis artery), and the insides of the ankles (the posterior tibial artery).

CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR ESSENTIAL OIL ROLL-ONS
All New Directions Aromatics Essential Oils are for external use only. They should not be ingested and should not be stored within the reach of children, in case of accidental ingestion. As with essential and carrier oils, a patch test should be conducted on the inner arm or another generally insensitive area of skin, using a dime-size amount of the specified oil to check for sensitivities. An absence of an allergic response within 48 hours suggests that the oil is safe to use.
The topical application of most carrier oils is generally known to be safe with responsible use, but irritations, allergies, rashes, and other side effects are possible. In the chance of an allergic reaction, discontinue use of the product and see a doctor, pharmacist, or allergist immediately for a health assessment and appropriate remedial action. To prevent side effects, consult with a medical professional prior to use.
Essential or carrier oils must never be used near the eyes, inner nose, and ears, or on any other particularly sensitive areas of skin.
