Risks & Warnings

Because it is an aromatic essential oil, it should be treated as a fragrance allergen risk, especially on sensitive or compromised skin. Pregnancy safety data are insufficient; conservative avoidance is reasonable. ([incidecoder.com](https://incidecoder.com/ingredients/eriocephalus-punctulatus-oil?utm_source=openai))
