Is this oil suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin, and how do I test it safely?

KEHAMASSAAŽI ÕLI "INGVER" 1L

The formula is a cosmetic vegetable-oil blend scented with a ginger fragrance component. While the base oils are generally well tolerated, any added fragrance — natural or synthetic — increases the risk of contact reactions for people with sensitive, atopic, or fragrance-allergic skin. Before a full-body application, do a patch test: apply a few drops to the inner forearm or behind the ear, cover loosely with a bandage, and wait 24 hours. Watch for redness, itching, burning, or small bumps. If any of these appear, rinse the area with lukewarm water and a mild cleanser and do not proceed with a full massage. Even if the patch test is clear, start with a smaller area (e.g., lower legs) during the first full session. Discontinue immediately if irritation develops during or after use. The product is for external use only; keep it away from mucous membranes and eyes. If you have a known allergy to ginger or related spices (turmeric, cardamom), treat this product as a potential trigger and consult a dermatologist before use.
