The Best Essential Oil Supplies for Beginners

Essential oils are amazing! They’ve helped me eliminate so many toxins from my home.

But when you first start using them, they might seem a bit overwhelming.

There are so many different brands to choose from and oils to buy. It can be kind of intimidating.

You may not be sure where to start or what to buy.

So I thought it would be helpful to share the best essential oil supplies for beginners.

The supplies listed below will help you get the most out of your essential oils.

You don’t need to get everything on the list right away. But I would make it a goal to acquire everything on this list over time.

I’ve listed the items in order of most important to not as important but you’ll definitely want to get eventually.

1 | Essential Oils

Obviously, you are going to need essential oils. And the essential oil brand you choose is a very important decision.

I have an entire guide that you can read about how to choose an essential oil brand. And I highly recommend that you read it and do your own research.

Not all essential oils are created equal. And some brands are definitely better than others.

But you don’t have to spend a ton of money to get high-quality essential oils. That is something that took me a long time to figure out.

I used to use a very popular and expensive MLM brand. Once I started to do my own research into different essential oil brands, I was pleasantly surprised to discover several high-quality essential oil brands at affordable prices.

I was also kind of irritated about how much money I had spent on oils that I thought were better than the rest, only to find out there were other brands that sold oils that were just as good at a fraction of the cost.

So don’t make the same mistake I did.

The brands I currently recommend are Florihana, Simply Earth and Plant Therapy. You can check out my Florihana and Simply Earth reviews below.

If you decide to buy from Simply Earth you can use the code HAPPYHEARTFREE to receive a $40 Simply Earth gift card + a big bonus box with the purchase of your first recipe box, all for only $39.99!!!

Once you’ve chosen a brand I recommend these essential oils for beginners. The five essential oils listed in this post are highly versatile and will help you get started on your oily journey.

2 | Essential Oil Diffusers

Essential oil diffusers are the quickest and easiest way to start using essential oils in your everyday life.

Essential oil diffusers break essential oils down into smaller molecules and disperse them through out the air.

Not only do they allow you to freshen up a room without chemicals but they also have many health and wellness benefits.

Diffusing immune boosting essential oils can give your immune system a boost. Diffusing essential oils for sleep can help you relax and sleep better. Diffusing energy boosting essential oils can give you a little extra energy to help you get through your day.

You can eliminate so many toxic chemicals from your home just by using a diffuser instead of air fresheners and candles.

Candles and air fresheners are a huge source of indoor air pollution. You can read this post to learn more about the dangers of air fresheners and candles.

I threw out all my air fresheners and candles a long time ago and I don’t miss them one bit. Check out some of my favorite diffuser blends below.

3 | Carrier Oils

Carrier oils are a must have when it comes to essential oils. Many essential oils need to be diluted with a carrier oil before applying to the skin.

Carrier oils are also necessary for making many essential oil diy products.

The carrier oils I recommend are below.

You don’t need all of them. Maybe just one or two to start with. Coconut oil is my go-to for creating roller blends. And I love carrier oils like almond or
