The best essential oil brands you can buy in 2021

Essential oils are a great resource for relaxation. They can be used for aromatherapy, mixed with carrier oils to treat hair and skin, clearing up clogged noses and throats, and helping ease people off to sleep. Here are the best essential oil brands available now.

Anjou
Anjou’s products are inspired by nature, not only in fragrances like sweet orange and eucalyptus, but also in the company’s use of ingredients, which are said to be natural, clean, eco-friendly and cruelty-free.

Artnaturals
Artnaturals brings affordable essential oils to everyone in scents like cinnamon leaf, bergamot, and peppermint. It’s hard to find a better bang for your buck.

Cliganic
Amazon reviewers love Cliganic, especially the brand’s set of its top five oils: peppermint, lavender, eucalyptus, lemongrass and orange. As reviewer Monica Treadway put it, “These scents smell like the plants they come from. Lavender is lovely, slightly herby scent, not the artificial sweet smell found in many commercial products. Peppermint is slightly sweet, and helps sooth my headaches. Lemongrass is extremely strong; one drop is enough and the scent lingers for hours after I turn off the diffuser. Very pleased. Will order more.”

GreenHealth
GreenHealth oils like peppermint and eucalyptus come in huge (by essential oil standards) 16-ounce containers, making them great buys for anyone who prefers to stock up. They’ll leave you more time to relax at home and less time to stress at the store.

Healing Solutions
Amazon reviewers are in love with Healing Solutions essential oils, which help them clear away cold and allergy symptoms, relax before bedtime, and freshen up their spaces before receiving guests.

Lagunamoon
Lagunamoon essential oils are made without parabens, additives, or fillers, making their variety packs all-around winners. You’ll be well covered with scents including lavender, frankincense, peppermint, rose, rosemary, sandalwood, lemon, vanilla, jasmine, lemongrass, eucalyptus, bergamot, chamomile, grapefruit, cedar, cinnamon, geranium, orange, vetiver, and tea tree.

Nature's Truth
With 40 years in the wellness business, Nature’s Truth knows a thing or two about all-natural health. Their essential oils come in warming cinnamon, rejuvenating lavender, and uplifting frankincense, in addition to many more varieties.

NOW Essential Oils
Another well-known company with decades of experience, Now Foods produces a line of fantastic essential oils using a variety of methods, from steam distillation to cold press. Their oils are widely available and affordable too.

Plant Therapy
Plant Therapy’s beloved essential oils have garnered great reviews among Walmart customers. Of the bergamot essential oil, for instance, one reviewer said, “I have purchased numerous bottles of bergamot and always have a replacement on hand. It has a fresh aroma and is a very relaxing oil. I use it primarily with other oils for night time diffusing. It blends well with so many other oils. Totally recommend-you cannot go wrong and the price is great!”

Sensible Remedies
According to the brand website, Sensible Remedies was launched by a father-son duo who wanted to spread knowledge of folk remedies after immigrating to the U.S. With varieties like vetiver, ylang-ylang, and clary sage, the brand is a great option for those looking for something new.

Sun Essentials
On their website, the Sun Essentials team says they stay small and agile in order to bring the best products to consumers at the lowest prices. That has paid off if you ask one reviewer of the eucalyptus essential oil, who writes, “I have to say I'm thrilled and surprised. I was recently introduced to essential oils, but I just can't afford or justify the high cost of the oils. I was warned that other brands are fake, diluted, etc. This brand is much, much less expensive and the oils work just as well as the expensive ones. This has become my favorite brand.”
