  • Do try to find an established and reliable supplier.
  • Do look out for a recommendation.
  • Do find an aromatherapy specialist.
  • Do compare the prices of the oils. There should be a wide difference in prices. Essential oil of jasmine or rose should be far more expensive than lavender or lemon.
  • Do ask if the oils are 100% pure.
  • Do read labels carefully – check for words such as ‘nature identical’ or ‘fragrance’ indicating impurity.
  • Do trust your nose. The more you use the essential oils, the more easily you will be able to detect a ‘true’ essential oil.
  • Do put a few drops on a piece of blotting paper or fairly thick paper and allow it to dry. If a mark is left behind, be suspicious.
  • Do rub a drop of essential oil between your thumb and forefinger. There should not be a greasy feel. Then quickly wash your hand.
  • Do buy a small selection of oils to begin with. If you are happy with the quality, then purchase more.
  • Do not confuse essential oils with vegetable oils, which are also sometimes called "carrier" or "base" oils.
