Though these are the highest food-grade quality (as opposed to cosmetic-grade quality) they are being offered for COSMETIC USE on Listia. They are not to be put into the mouth. It would be unethical to NOT list the quality of my auction herbs. Some of the many uses are for soap-making, lotions, herbal baths, foot soaks, facials, and hair. That being said...
