==Special Precautions of Carnation==
* Use carnation essential oil with great caution; mainly because using this essential oil may cause a number of sensitive issues.
* Pregnant women should essentially check with their physician or obstetrician prior to using carnation essential oils.
* It is important to test a small area of the skin with the oil before you start using it for any therapeutic purpose. The test will enable you to ensure whether or not carnation essential oil is suitable for you. It is strictly advised that individuals should wait for at least 24 hours to observe the results of the test. Don’t use the oil if it results in any negative reaction.
