Important cosmetic-use, allergy, safety, and product handling language for Smooth Roots products.

Last updated: June 5, 2026

This page helps keep product language in cosmetic territory and avoids medical claims. Have a lawyer review it with the final ingredient lists and labels.

1. Cosmetic use only

Smooth Roots products are intended for external cosmetic use only. They are designed for personal bodycare routines such as cleansing, moisturizing, softening, conditioning, or improving the feel and appearance of skin or lips.

Smooth Roots products are not drugs, medical treatments, or medical devices. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease, illness, infection, rash, skin condition, or medical condition.

2. No medical advice

Information on this website, product labels, product pages, social media, emails, or customer support messages is provided for general informational purposes only and is not medical advice.

If you have a medical condition, skin condition, allergy, injury, infection, chronic irritation, or health concern, consult a qualified healthcare professional before using any bodycare product.

3. Ingredients and allergies

Always review the full ingredient list before purchasing and before use. Do not use a product if you are allergic or sensitive to any listed ingredient, including but not limited to tallow, oils, butters, waxes, fragrance components, essential oils, botanicals, colorants, or preservatives.

Customers with known allergies or sensitive skin should use extra caution and consider consulting a qualified professional before use.

4. Patch testing

For new products, consider applying a small amount to a limited area of clean skin and waiting before broader use. Discontinue use immediately if redness, burning, itching, swelling, rash, irritation, or discomfort occurs.

5. Sensitive groups

Pregnant or nursing customers, children, people using prescription skin treatments, people with compromised skin barriers, and people under medical care should consult a qualified professional before using scented or active bodycare products.

6. Product handling and storage

Store products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, water intrusion, and contamination. Keep containers closed when not in use. Use clean, dry hands or a clean applicator when appropriate.

Natural, oil-rich, whipped, or balm-like products may soften, melt, firm up, grain, settle, or change texture with temperature changes. Texture variation does not always mean the product is unsafe, but discontinue use if the product appears contaminated, smells unusual, or changes in a concerning way.

7. External-use warnings

Avoid contact with eyes. Do not apply products to deep wounds, punctures, burns, infected areas, or severely irritated skin unless directed by a qualified healthcare professional. Keep products out of reach of children and pets unless supervised by an adult.

If accidental ingestion, serious irritation, eye exposure, or an allergic reaction occurs, seek appropriate medical guidance promptly.

8. Scent and essential oil sensitivity

Lavender, cedarwood, patchouli, citrus, fragrance oils, essential oils, and botanical ingredients may not be suitable for every person. Scent perception and sensitivity vary by individual.

Citrus and other aromatic ingredients may increase sensitivity for some users. Follow label directions and avoid use if irritation occurs.

9. Product results vary

Individual results vary based on skin type, environment, routine, frequency of use, allergies, sensitivities, and other personal factors. Smooth Roots does not guarantee a specific result for any customer.

10. Customer responsibility

By purchasing or using Smooth Roots products, you agree to read product information, follow directions, review ingredients, store products properly, and use products only as intended.
