Frequently asked questions & answers about Moena Botanicals and our products
Some of our most-loved essential oils are Palo Santo, Limón Rizo, Moena Alcanforada, and Rosewood or also known as Palo Rosa.
Essential oils can be enjoyed by smelling them straight from the bottle, on a cotton ball, on a passive diffuser such as lava rock, in an electric diffuser, or used on the body diluted in a carrier oil. We love to use coconut or jojoba oil as a carrier oil.
Some essential oils can be used “neat” or undiluted on the skin, such as lavender, but always test your skin first and if a reaction occurs discontinue use.
Moena Botanicals is not responsible for the misuse of essential oils. We urge you to use essential oils responsibly. Never ingest essential oils, never use them on children, avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes, do not use if pregnant or nursing unless under the advice of a professional.
Always keep essential oils away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Store your oils in cool, dark places to prolong the shelf life.
The shelf life of essential oils varies widely. Most oils can keep up to 5 years except citrus-derived oils that tend to lose their potency after about 18 months, depending on how they are stored.
