Choose essential oil

1. Consider the quality of essential oils before you purchase. Since you will use essential oil around your body and your home, it is in your best interest to choose high quality essential oils. There is no quality standard that all oil companies must follow, so you have to consider a few things before you buy them.

Have you heard about the company or used their products before? Only buy essential oil from reputable companies.

Is the price of essential oil much cheaper than that of other similar products? Be careful with cheap essential oils because they may not be pure.

Is the Latin name or country of origin of the plant that made the essential oil listed on the bottle? These details show that the company caters to knowledgeable consumers and is therefore more trustworthy.

Is there any explanation of purity on the package? Look for products with 100% essential oil and avoid products with less or no percentage.

How does this product smell? If the product doesn’t smell as you expect it, it may not be a high-quality product.

Is there any description of organic planting or “wild processing” on the package? If not, the plants used to make oil may have produced and / or sprayed pesticides in large quantities, so you may want to avoid them.

2. Consider the chemical type of essential oil before purchase. Some oil producers offer a variety of the same oils. Due to the influence of climate, soil, environment and other factors, the odor of these different types or chemical types is slightly different. The advantage of choosing a specific chemical type of essential oil is that you can customize the diluent.

3. Consider packaging. The effects of essential oils on light and heat decrease and dissolve faster. Make sure that the product you buy is packed in dark (usually brown) glass containers and sealed well. Avoid buying essential oils that have been opened or appear to have been exposed to sunlight or heat.
