Smells much like powdered Ginger; warm, spicy. This is a steam distilled oil from the dried Ginger root, Fiery and peppery, so use in moderation. Stimulating, warming, aphrodisiac and tonic. Helps to soothe the stomach. When using Ginger in skincare, please keep in mind that this is a hot and spicy oil - great for warming the tissue and many healing applications - but also prone to causing irritation when used in high concentrations. Adding a Ginger-type blend to a warm bath brings welcome stimulation to sore, stiff and overworked muscles. Blend with citrus oils, woods, resins, the aphrodisiac oils (Vetiver, Patchouli, Rose, Ylang Ylang, Neroli, Sandalwood).

No known toxicity. However, due to its intensity use only in moderation, skin irritation possible at high concentration. GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) approved by the FDA as food flavor. Slightly phototoxic (avoid sunlight after applying to skin).

When deciding on a lid, there are a few things to keep in mind. Droppers are great when working on recipes, because you can count the drops, but if you store the dropper in the vial, the oil will eventually deteriorate the rubber, ruining your precious oil. So, store separately, especially if you do not use the oil promptly. Wands are good for skin application. The reducers are good for thinner viscosity oils but not for heavy oils like frankincense. Tap the bottom of the bottle to deliver the oil. These are great for the diffuser.
