FAQs

What makes Blackseed & Olive Nasal Oil a unique blend?
Blackseed oil is an herbal ingredient derived from the Nigella Sativa plant. Common for its anti-histamine properties, the seeds are collected and pressed into what's called blackseed oil. Olive oil has its own natural benefits of being an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial oil.

Both of these clinically proven ingredients – when combined – may increase the support for your nasal passages.

Blackseed oil is very strong if ingested through the nasal cavity on its own. The olive oil is used more as a carrier oil and dilutes the blackseed oil, still preserving the benefit of the duo blend.

It may support your sinus cavities if you are suffering from:

  • Seasonal Allergies
  • Covid, Flu, RSV & Cold
  • Respiratory infection
  • Sinus Irritation/Inflammation

How do I use Blackseed & Olive Nasal Oil?
To best ensure you are effectively using this unique duo blend of Blackseed & Olive Oil, please follow the instructions below:

  • Shake the bottle well and squeeze the top part of the dropper a couple of times before opening the bottle. This will help ensure both oils blend well together.
  • Lay down on your back and tilt your head so that your chin slightly points north (keep a tissue near by).
  • Open the bottle, squeeze the top of the dropper and tilt it back - this avoids dripping.
  • Bring the dropper near your nostril keeping the tip close to the opening. Be careful to not let the dropper touch the inside of your nose. If it does, be sure to wipe the tip of the dropper thoroughly before you put the dropper back into the bottle to avoid contamination.
  • Slowly squeeze the dropper, allowing at least 5 drops to fall into each nostril. If more are dropped in, that is OK. You will at least need 5 to allow it to be most effective.
  • Once the drops are in, slightly take a deep breath so the oil can reach even deeper into your sinus cavities.
  • Take your fingers and on the outside of your sinus cavities, massage gently to allow the spread of the oil - this will moisturize the inside of your nose.

If it feels tingly - that’s actually GREAT!

That means it’s working! Normally happens when the inside of your nose is inflamed or irritated. If you are congested or have allergies, you want to do this at least 3x a day to get the most effective results - even if you start feeling better, don’t stop until all symptoms are gone.

The instructions mentioned above are if you are experiencing symptoms but if you want to focus on your preventative nasal health then I recommend 2x a day daily – 3 drops.

Can I use Blackseed & Olive Nasal Oil if pregnant or breast-feeding?
Product can be used If pregnant or breast-feeding. Still as a precaution, it is advised to ask a health professional before use.

Can this product be used on children & infants?
