When experimenting with essential oils, brand options and scents can be overwhelming. Where to start? Should I choose individual scents or oils kits? What about quality, fair price? What if I don’t like the products – can I send them back? We considered all these questions in our recommendation.
Since we all like different scents and women like experimenting with more fragrances, our recommendation is to choose small size kits over single bottles. Moreover, oils have different therapeutic benefits so that there is no single oil that can qualify as an absolute favorite.
And our winner at the “Best Seller Essential Oil Starter Kit” brand is … ArtNaturals!
