If you thought all essential oils were the same then think again. The ability of an essential oil to work it’s magic is all based on it’s purity. Some are contaminated with pesticides, diluted with other ingredients or worse yet, synthetic. Aromatherapy speaks to your soul. You want the source to be as pure as possible.
