Essential Oils Buying Guide -Top 10 Lists
There are more than 3,000 essential oils, of which approximately 300 are used in aromatherapy. Of those, there are 101 major essential oils traded on the global market. Only the professional aromatherapist or seasoned amateur would use all 101, rarely. The average arsenal of essential oils contains approximately one or two dozen individual oils and five to seven blends.
A good number for the layman or novice is ten. But which ten? Every manufacturer, merchant, author and practitioner has a ‘Top 10′ list of essential oils, and no two lists are the same. There are commonalities, naturally, but every list is different. There’s the ‘Top 10 Essential Oils Ever,’ (again, no two lists alike), ‘Top 10 Best Selling,’ ‘Top 10 Recommended,’ ‘Top 10 for Colds,’ and ‘Top 10 Florals,’ to name a few. The best way to begin selecting essential oils is by making your own list: ‘My Top 10 Essential Oils.’
