Ron Guba on Essential Oils and Skin Cancer by Robert Tisserand
"Ron believes that 'For solar keratoses, or basal and squamous cell carcinomas in early stages, a number of essential oils would be worthy to trial.' Our Sun-Kissed blend is his suggested trial formula minus the jojoba and beeswax. See our Sun-Kissed Salve if you wish to have the salve per Guba's formula.

Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oil, unscented lotion or unscented cream and apply on area of concern or as desired. Consider using a roll-on applicator for ease of application of prediluted oil. To this essential oil blend, Ron Guba added 46.6% Jojoba oil and 20% Beeswax, so the essential oil dilution is about 33% (see our Sun-Kissed Salve if you wish to have the salve per Guba's formula). For daily use Robert Tisserand suggests a 5% formulation.

Children: For infants and children, please follow the Dilution Chart on the Babies and Children page.

Inhalation: Diffuse or use a personal Nasal Inhaler

Internal: Sun-Kissed is formulated for topical use, but it is suitable for internal use within safe parameters if such use is deemed appropriate. We feel that internal use is rarely *needed* and should only be used with respect for how concentrated the oils are. HEO does not advocate internal use of essential oils without appropriate knowledge and understanding of how to administer, for what purpose, how much, which essential oils, safety concerns and so on. In our experience, essential oils are generally more effective used topically with proper dilution or inhaled. Kurt Schnaubelt Ph.D. notes that "French aromatherapy literature contains many references to using oils orally." He goes on to note that "generally 1 drop is always enough when ingesting essential oils." A potential toxicity hazard could occur when untrained people use essential oils orally and ingest too much. Keep in mind that while medical doctors or health care practitioners may prescribe essential oils for internal use, they are trained and experienced in the safe application of essential oils. It is not a matter of using "French aromatherapy" or "British" methods, it's a matter of experience and appropriate application.

1. In Robert Tisserand's article, Ron Guba "talks about his use of essential oils to treat very small, early-stage skin cancers or pre-cancerous lesions. These were not cancers that required urgent medical intervention. Ron believes that 'For solar keratoses, or basal and squamous cell carcinomas in early stages, a number of essential oils would be worthy to trial.' This ointment should be applied to affected areas, two to three times per day. Resolution of lesions can take up to six weeks of daily application. If there is no improvement, discontinue use and seek medical advice."

2. Dr. Raphael d'Angelo suggested a strong dilution of Frankincense cartertii, and I found this to work very well for removing actinic keratosis lesions. - Mary

3. Sun-Kissed Salve is amazing. I have multiple 'solar keratoses' spots on my face, and within a week of using Sun-Kissed 4-5 times daily, they have all practically disappeared. To top off it's efficacy, it smells wonderful! - Cheryl

4. I'm impressed with Sun-Kissed salve. I have been trying to deal with a few spots on my nose for years, and within a week of using Sun-Kissed 3x daily, they are gone! I love the aroma and plan to keep using it because it is obviously very supportive to healthy skin! - Linda

Safety
Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat— like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. Tisserand suggests: "With essential oils, fatty oil has been suggested as an appropriate first aid treatment, though the advantage of saline [eyewash] is that the eyes can be continually flushed, and this is less easy with fatty oil.” We are not aware of a case where essential oil in the eyes caused permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
