Read buying guide →Store bulk anise essential oil in its original sealed container, cool, dark, and away from direct sunlight, and decant working amounts into smaller airtight bottles for daily use rather than opening the full container repeatedly. Keep it away from eyes, children, and pets. For any skin application, dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil and patch test first.
