Why dōTERRA®?

Pure Essential Oils

If you’re wondering where to buy essential oils, you don’t have to look far.

However, be careful where you look, because many essential oils on the market are heavily contaminated or adulterated with synthetic chemicals. If you’re buying essential oils, it means you want something completely natural and safe. Make sure that you don’t inadvertently buy something you think is natural but turns out to be synthetic.

When you want essential oils that are safe and effective, the most important thing to look for is purity. Pure essential oils will allow you to reap the full benefits that nature has to offer, and you can be confident knowing that they are safe to use to use with your family. Remember, you usually get what you pay for, and essential oils are no different.

What to Look for When Buying Essential Oils

In a market where every company claims to have “pure” essential oils, how do you really know if the oils you’re using are pure? How do you know if the essential oils you’re buying are worthy of being used by you and your family?

If you want the best essential oils, find out if the company you plan to buy from takes the following precautions to ensure the quality of their oils:

  • Sustainable and responsible sourcing (Where do their oils come from?)

  • Extensive and thorough testing (Do they test their oils for adulteration and contamination?)

  • Clear and accessible safety and usage information (Do they show customers how to use the oils safely?)

  • Transparency (Do they use third-party testing? Do they make test results public?)

What Makes dōTERRA® Different?

When you use a bottle of dōTERRA® essential oil, you’re using an oil that is pure. There are no contaminants, fillers, or adulterations. The essential oil industry did not have standards to ensure purity, so dōTERRA® created one.

Every batch of dōTERRA® essential oils goes through a rigorous testing process—well beyond what would be considered “good enough.” After that, each oil is sent to an independent third party for further testing and validation.

Pure Essential Oils Pass Tests

If the oil passes the tests, it’s labeled as CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade®. When you see the CPTG® label, you know you’re using the purest essential oils on the market.

Want to see the purity of dōTERRA® oils for yourself? Every single bottle of dōTERRA® oil comes with a quality ID. Use the ID number on the bottom of your bottle to view the third-party test results for that batch of oil by going to sourcetoyou.com

Humanitarian Impact

From the beginning, dōTERRA® wanted to be more than a business. “There are givers and there are takers,” said David Stirling, doTERRA Founding Executive, CEO. “We wanted doTERRA to be a giver.”

To accomplish that, the dōTERRA® Healing Hands Foundation® was created—a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps support community development projects in sourcing communities. These kinds of projects include funding for and building of schools, health clinics, training facilities, and clean water systems.

The dōTERRA® Healing Hands Foundation also partners with a variety of other organizations to support disaster relief; anti-human trafficking prevention, rescue, and rehabilitation; microloan programs; and feminine hygiene education.

dōTERRA® generously donates to cover all administrative costs of the foundation so that 100% of all donations go directly to aid. When you partner with the dōTERRA® Healing Hands Foundation, your donation could save a child from human trafficking, repair a home devastated by a natural disaster, or help provide someone with access to healthcare.
