In reply to: Ammonia does not belong on the skin.... posted by Reality Check (: on August 12, 2001 at 19:55:09:

Eucalyptus oil is VERY TOXIC IF INGESTED. 3.5 ml is FATAL.
Link below for information and verification.

Last I noticed, you've got eucalyptus oil in your paste..... by
extension of your own reasoning,
"If you can't put it in your mouth then it doesn't belong on your
skin.."
you shouldn't be putting it in there.

It is not a problem for most people used externally, though many
people have difficulties with it.

In any case, don't claim the "on your skin, in your mouth" reasoning,
because it just plain doesn't hold up!
