FAQ:
Is cinnamon oil skin-compatible? Cassia cinnamon oil is very concentrated and should be diluted significantly more than other essential oils for skin application, with a prior skin test. In a diffuser, it is easy and safe to use. In professionally formulated products such as our natural soaps, the dosage is already appropriately adjusted.
What is the difference between Cassia and Ceylon cinnamon oil? Cassia cinnamon oil (Cinnamomum cassia) has a more intense, sharper scent and a higher coumarin content than the milder Ceylon cinnamon oil (Cinnamomum verum), but is also considered more irritating to the skin.
