Consumers should immediately secure the recalled essential oil bottles out of the sight and reach of children and contact Linkers for a full refund and instructions on destroying the recalled bottles. Consumers will be asked to pour the contents of the bottle into the trash and email a photo of the disposed bottle to admin@linkersecomm.com.
