SAFETY 


Lavender Essential Oil is a uterine stimulant, therefore it should be avoided during pregnancy. For topical uses only and avoid contact with eyes and mouth.

As per NAHA guidelines, Fizz Fairy Krazycolours does not recommend the ingestion of essential oils. Lavender Oil can potentially increase the effectiveness of medications such as those related to sleep disorders or those prescribed for depression and the same advice applies for any cough or flu medicine that induces sleep, as Lavender Oil stimulates drowsiness. It is best to avoid using Lavender Oil when undergoing surgery or anesthesia.

There is not enough research to prove that this oil is safe to use at any stage of pregnancy, as it can act as a muscle relaxant and can affect hormone levels; therefore, pregnant and nursing women are advised not to use Lavender Oil, especially pregnant women in their third trimester, unless a medical practitioner is consulted first. Despite being considered generally safe for children to use, the effects of Lavender Oil on hormones means it could potentially be harmful to pre-pubescent boys. Parents are advised to exercise caution when using it on children in this age range.
