Is it safe during pregnancy?
External use is generally safe (avoid large abdominal areas); consult a healthcare provider for any concerns.

How should I store it in Australia's climate?
Refrigerate in warmer states (QLD/NT) to maintain thickness and prevent oxidation; amber glass protects from UV.

Why choose hexane-free organic?
Cold-pressed extraction preserves potency without chemical solvents for purest, most effective oil.
