Knowing what to look for when buying essential oils online is something lots of people have problems with.

So, there are several points to look for:-

1) Does the company supply to professional therapists as well as to the home enthusiast, beginner, student etc? It’s a good indication if they do and suppliers will normally have this clearly indicated on their site.

2) Is the company a member of a regulatory body? Again, lots are, and I would favour these.

3) Do the essential oils have the botanical name on the labelling? This is important because there are several different types of mint, lavender etc, and you want to be sure you’re buying the correct one.

4) Does the label state pure essential oil? Or something along those lines.

5) A reputable supplier will also tell you about where the essential oil was produced, the distillation method and give an overview of therapeutic actions.

These points will help you buy genuine essential oils online.

Or, you can just go to amazon.com, because they have a load of aromatherapy oils for a great price, and you can trust them - they are a big brand, and very reliable.
