Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


I recently had a wart appear overnight on the inside of my left index finger. It was sore to the touch, red around the outside edges and about the third a size of a dime.

I decided to try Cinnamon Bark oil applied neat on it every night before bed for a week. Luckily, this particular area on my body is not sensitive to the heat this oil produces. On the first application a small whitish area appeared in the center of the wart, and the skin seemed to toughen somewhat.

I'm glad to testify that after a week the wart is now completely gone and flattened out with no redness, soreness or irritation. If you look with a magnifying glass you can tell where it was for the skin striations are still somewhat circular, but for all intents and purposes it is gone!

The last couple evenings I also put a drop of Lemon oil on it for the scent of Cinnamon was so strong, it was a bit difficult to fall asleep easily. Also do not attempt use of this hot oil neat on the neck or other tender skin areas as this oil will burn!
