We spent months testing essential oils to find the best 5 essential oils for women. We tested the essential oils on everyone in our family (including my girls and our dog Buster). We tested doTerra, Young Living and 12 other brands and found the best ones. We ranked them on quality of oils (most important of all), price, ease of ordering, and education. Here are the 5 Best Essential Oils Brands: 1. REVIVE ESSENTIAL OILS REVIVE Essential Oils earned the #1 spot and is our favorite essential oil brand by far. We used their oils on our entire family (dogs included!) and had great results. Sleep, energy, pain, allergies – you name it and there is a Revive EO essential oil or blend for it. My husband loves the Sleep blend. Quality: ★★★★★. Having used Revive Oils for 6 months, I can tell you they are as high quality as doTerra oils I was using. And there’s science that backs that up! Dr. Pappas (a pHD Chemist who has been testing essential oils since 1996 and previously worked for doTerra and Young Living) performs independent 3rd party testing on every batch of every Revive Oil. He verifies Revive Oils are as high quality, pure, & potent as doTerra and YL. You can see GC/MS reports from Dr. Pappas on the Revive website. He certifies the purity, potency, and quality of every batch of every Revive Essential Oil through GC/MS testing & 20 other tests. Revive Essential Oils are 100% pure therapeutic grade, with no fillers or fragrances. Revive Oils are so high quality that we can actually ingest their oils (I quit diet coke and drink lavender sparkling water every day!). And we were glad to see we weren’t alone – we love all the great reviews that Revive EO has earned, including one from us! Price: ★★★★★. Revive prices are great! Thieves blend for $14. On Guard for $14. Frankincense for $18! I was a doTerra customer before but I was spending more than $1,000 a year because it’s so expensive. Revive isn’t a multi-level-marketing company. That’s how they offer the same quality Oils but at a lower price! Ease of Ordering/Gimmicks: ★★★★★. REVIVE offers FREE SHIPPING & RETURNS. I don’t purchase things online without this! I like that their return policy is almost as good as Costco (a mom’s disneyland!) and that they offer a 100% money back guarantee. There are no annual fees or pressure to keep ordering. I order what I want based on what I actually use. My favorite is their version of Thieves, called REVIVE Immunity Boost. Education: ★★★★☆. I like the GCMS reports and the Top 10 uses of each Essential Oil and Blend on the website. I was able to communicate with the Revive aromatherapist via email and found her knowledgeable and helpful. Quality: ★★★★★Price: ★★★★★Ordering: ★★★★★Education: ★★★★☆Overall Rating: 19/20 Buy it here CYBER MONDAY SALE: REVIVE has their CYBER MONDAY Sale. live right now: Peppermint $5.74, Lavender $7.38, Eucalyptus: $5.75, Immunity Boost: $11.48. (USD). Coupon Code: MONDAY 2. DoTerra doTerra is an essential oil company that started in Utah. I was a former doTerra customer for years! Ultimately, I grew tired of the navigating the sales pitches and how expensive it is. Quality: ★★★★★. doTerra essential oils are natural and high quality. My complaint about their GC/MS testing is you have to enter a lot number on their website, which you can only get from a bottle of oil you have already bought. Price: ★★☆☆☆. DoTerra is really expensive. People think it’s expensive because of quality but it’s expensive because of the MLM – up to 50% of my purchase price goes to the MLM of doTerra advocates. And I didn’t know this but doTerra makes $300 million dollars a year in profit (1)! Ease of Ordering/Gimmicks: ★★★☆☆. I find it painful, to be honest. I can never keep track of their monthly specials and found myself spending too much time optimizing for saving money than purchasing the items my family really needed. Education: ★★★★★. I love the education I can get from doTerra through the MLM. This is where doTerra stands out. I’ve learned so much about how to use Oils and Blends. Quality: ★★★★★Price: ★★☆☆☆Ordering: ★★★☆☆Education: ★★★★★Overall Rating: 15/20 Buy it here. 2. Young Living If you’ve bought essential oils, you’ve likely heard about Young Living products. Did you know they own their own farms?! Young Living Essential Oils are sold in a multi-level marketing (friends earn financial rewards by referring products to others). It has great Essential Oils (Thieves is my favorite) but is expensive and so we ranked Young Living. #3 on our list. Quality: ★★★★☆. Young Living has amazing programs coined “seed to seal”, “lacy’s act”, and “partnership principals”. They say that they audit their farms, have binding agreements, and stringent testing. Big problem though – they don’t post their GC/MS reports. Price: ★★☆☆☆. Like DoTerra, Young Living is really expensive. It’s expensive because of the MLM and because Young Living makes $400 million dollars a year in profit (2). Even at wholesale price, Young Living Essential Oils are marked up 400% to 600% (this is how jewelry gets marked up). Ease of Ordering/Gimmicks: ★★★☆☆. Alongside the personal pressure from friends to keep ordering, you’ve to pay for Shipping! Also upon checkout they tried to sell me membership, and it just reminded me how much I was overpaying for all of their products. Education: ★★★★★. I love the education I can get from Young Living through the advocates. Quality: ★★★★☆Price: ★★☆☆☆Ordering: ★★★☆☆Education: ★★★★★ Overall Rating: 14/20 4. Rocky Mountain Rocky Mountain essential oils used to be called Native American Nutritionals. They are also based out of Utah. Quality: ★★★★★. They have high quality oils and easily accessible GC/SM testing for every item! I love it!! Price: ★★☆☆☆. Rocky Mountain Essential Oils has expensive oils. And opposite to instincts, more expensive does not always equal better quality. They are the same price as doTerra but are not doing as many community events as Young Living and doTerra. They have high quality oils like the 4 companies listed above but cost alone cannot be used to describe the quality of something. Ease of Ordering/Gimmicks: ★★★★☆. I love that I can order from Rocky Mountain and they have quick shipping. I love even more that it is free shipping. I get a little overwhelmed with how many different lines, and kits that they offer. Education: ★★★☆☆. They have good information for each essential oil in easy to consume little drop down menus. It is not as extensive as Young Living or doTerra websites. Quality: ★★★★★Price: ★★☆☆☆Ordering: ★★★★☆Education: ★★★☆☆ Rocky Mountain overall 14/20 5. Melaleuca Melaleuca has a lot of different products from weight loss to windex to essential oils. Instead of trying to be the best in one category, Melaleuca ends up being OK in lots of categories. They sell Essential Oils under the brand Pure Essential Oils. Weirdly, Melaleuca requires you to be a member to purchase. Their prices are high, and they require you to be a member to purchase. Quality: ★★★☆☆. Melaleuca oils are good quality. But Melaleuca doesn’t share the GCMS reports of their oils on their website. Price: ★★★☆☆. They call themself a selling club but that just means you can’t shop directly and have to use “the person who referred you” to melaleuca to shop. This indirect shopping increases prices. Ease of Ordering/Gimmicks: ★★☆☆☆. The require you to join the MLM and require you to set up an autoship subscription to purchase. Their selection is limited. They force you to buy $50 a month of things that you may not need just to fill the quota. Education: ★★★☆☆. They have limited information on their website about EO usage and blends. Quality: ★★★☆☆Price: ★★★☆☆Ordering: ★★☆☆☆Education: ★★★☆☆ Melaleuca Overall: 11/20 In summary: #1 REVIVE Essential Oils: Buy It Here#2 Doterra: Buy It Here#3 Young Living: Buy it Here#4 Rocky Mountain: Buy it Here#5 Melaleuca: Buy it Here
