Diffuser Guidance for Safe UsageUpdated 21 days ago

Diffuser Guidance for Safe Usage

Your IKOU diffuser is designed to bring calm and wellbeing into your space — and a few simple safety practices ensure it does so beautifully every time. 

Best Placement for Your Diffuser

  • Place on a stable, flat surface away from edges
  • Keep away from direct sunlight and electronics
  • Use in a well-ventilated room for the best scent experience
  • Avoid placing directly under shelves or near delicate surfaces that may be affected by moisture

Essential Oil Safety

Essential oils are highly concentrated — always use as directed:

  • Do not apply directly to skin unless diluted with a suitable carrier oil
  • Keep oils out of reach of children and pets
  • Store oils away from heat and direct sunlight when not in use — see How should I store my IKOU products?

Safety Around Children & Pets

We believe our essential oils are safe to use around both children and pets when used thoughtfully:

  • Always diffuse in a well-ventilated space
  • Ensure children and pets can move away freely if they become sensitive to the scent
  • Start with shorter diffusing sessions when introducing aromatherapy to a home with young children or animals
  • Some pets may be more sensitive to essential oils than others — if unsure, consult your veterinarian before use
