Can I apply Botanika Lavender Essential Oil directly to my skin? — Lavender essential oil 10ml - Botanika (maslo lavandy) (масло лаванды)

No. Botanika Lavender Essential Oil is a concentrated essential oil, not a ready-to-use body oil. Applying it directly to the skin is not recommended, and it should be kept away from eyes and mucous membranes. The usual way to use lavender oil on the body is to mix it into a carrier oil, an unscented cream, or a bath blend first.

For a patch test, mix a very small amount into your chosen carrier oil or cosmetic base, apply it to a small area of skin, and wait to see if any irritation appears. This is a sensible precaution when using any fragrant plant extract in cosmetics for the first time, especially if you have sensitive skin. Keep in mind that lavender oil adds a sensory element to a skincare product, but it does not work like a treatment or medicine, and this product is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent any condition.
