You can find “essential oils” at every price these days — but not all oils are the same. And that really matters. 💛🌿
🧪 1️⃣ “100% Pure” doesn’t always mean pure.
There’s very little regulation in the essential oil industry.
A bottle can legally say 100% pure and still contain only 5% real plant oil.
The rest?
✨ Synthetic fragrance
✨ Cheap fillers
✨ Carrier oils
…none of which need to be listed on the label. 😬
doTERRA uses 8 levels of testing (including third-party GC/MS) to ensure every drop is real, clean + unadulterated.
👉 You’re not just paying for oil — you’re paying for truth in the bottle.
🌍 2️⃣ Where the plant grows changes how the oil works.
Plants are little chemists. The soil, climate and harvest timing affect their chemistry — and therefore their results.
💜 Lavender from high altitudes = more calming compounds
🌱 Peppermint from the Pacific Northwest = naturally higher menthol (hello clarity!)
doTERRA works with farmers where the plants naturally thrive, through Co-Impact Sourcing® — supporting communities with fair wages + sustainable partnerships. 🤝💚
🧘♀️ 3️⃣ Real oils support your body. Fake oils stress it.
When we inhale or apply essential oils, they communicate directly with our nervous and endocrine systems.
So if an oil contains synthetics?
Your body has to detox it… instead of being supported by it.
This is why so many people say:
> “I didn’t know oils were supposed to work like this.”
When the chemistry is intact — the body recognises it.
❤️ 4️⃣ Integrity matters.
doTERRA invests in:
🌱 Farmer support + fair trade
🧪 Rigorous quality testing
🩵 Global humanitarian projects
🩺 Ongoing medical + clinical research
These things cost more to do — and they matter.
✨ Bottom Line:
You’re not paying for a brand name.
You’re paying for:
Purity
Potency
Purpose
Proof
Cheap oils may smell similar… but they don’t perform the same — and they don’t carry the same heart. 💫
True essential oils are more than fragrance — they’re wellness tools. 🌿💚
