What is it?
Neroli oil is an essential oil derived from bitter orange tree (citrus aurantium) blossoms, and is used in fragrances and skin conditioning agents, as well as in incense and aromatherapy products.

How do I avoid it?
Skin contact with neroli oil is required for it to cause a rash. Discontinuation of exposure to products containing neroli oil should result in improvement and/or resolution of your dermatitis. By law, all products made in the U.S. for topical use have the ingredients listed
either on the product package or the box that contains it, so check the labeling of your skin care products for this ingredient.

If there is not enough information, ask your pharmacist or contact the company directly. At work, request a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to help identify potential sources of exposure.
