Are your essential oils ingestible?
First, letโs be clear that there is a difference between the use of essential oils as food flavorings and their use for health purposes. Flavoring food in the food industry is regulated by the FDA under the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) list. However, GRAS guidelines are measured in Parts Per Million (PPM) โ where 1 PPM is roughly equivalent to one drop in 50 litres! This is nowhere near the unsupervised and misleading practices of ingesting essential oils at home.
While big MLM companies claim oils are ingestible because they are pure and 'therapeutic grade', this is unsafe. Harm from an essential oil is not always due to impurities, but the natural constituents it contains. Risks of ingesting include:
- Mucosal and gut lining irritation (essential oils are potent organic solvents).
- Risks of sensitization.
- Possible interactions with medications.
- Unnecessary stress to the liver and kidneys (metabolized in liver, excreted in urine).
Conclusion: We do not recommend ingesting essential oils casually or as a daily supplement. Ingestion requires consultation with a qualified clinical aromatherapist, not an MLM advocate.
Can I use your essential oils undiluted or NEAT?
Plant Therapy, the International Federation of Professional Aromatherapists (IFPA), the National Association of Holistic Aromatherapy (NAHA), Tisserand Institute, and other major aromatherapy bodies strictly advise against applying undiluted essential oils to the skin or ingesting them.
Safety guideline references:
Common side effects of using undiluted essential oils on the skin:
- Allergy / Sensitization
- Irritation
- Phototoxicity
We strongly advise proper dilution with a carrier oil prior to application.
What are OilyPoints & how do I earn them?

What is the conversion rate of OilyPoints?
RM1 spent = 1 OilyPoint (e.g., RM500 purchase = 500 OilyPoints)

Do my points ever expire & can I use multiple rewards?

Multiple Codes: While you can redeem multiple codes with your points, you can only apply one reward code at checkout per transaction (preset platform feature).
