The purity of aromatherapy essential oils directly affects the use effect and health, and many beginners find it difficult to identify. Professionals share 3 simple methods to avoid inferior products.

Method 1: Check the ingredient list. Pure essential oils only mark “natural plant essential oils” on the ingredient list, without “fragrance, additives” and other words. High-quality products will mark the raw material origin and extraction method.

Method 2: Smell the odor. Pure essential oils have a mellow aroma, rich layers, natural top, middle and base notes, and long-lasting fragrance; inferior essential oils have a pungent, single odor, short-lasting fragrance, and even a chemical smell.

Method 3: Paper drop test. Drop essential oil on oil-absorbing paper. Pure essential oil has no residue, no oil stain after volatilization, only a faint aroma; inferior essential oil has oil stain, stickiness after volatilization, and even residual pigment.

In addition, pure essential oils are relatively expensive, so be cautious when buying products with too low prices. Master these methods to easily identify the purity of essential oils and choose high-quality products.
