maker reviews & questions
questions
Qcan i use cinnamon bark oil in skin products?
kimiya staffWith extreme caution — it's a known strong sensitizer with very low IFRA dermal limits. Most makers reserve it for candles, wax melts and room scenting, where it excels. If you do use it on skin, verify the IFRA category limit first.
Qcinnamon bark vs. cinnamon leaf — does it matter?
kimiya staffYes — they differ in character and in restriction levels. This is bark oil; check the TDS and IFRA cert before substituting either direction.
