Meadowsweet leaves and flowers (Filipendula Ulmaria) are infused into organic, cold-pressed, and unrefined Jojoba oil and a touch of organic Vitamin E oil.
Precautions: Can cause nausea, dermatitis, and tightness in lungs. Use caution for children under 16 years old, as you would for aspirin. Not recommended by those who are allergic to aspirin, who are afflicted by asthma, and those who are on blood thinners. I recommend that you consult with your healthcare professional before using this oil if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Topical application only. Discontinue use if irritation appears.
