Other benefits of essential oils include acting as natural insect repellents and pesticides. Citronella candles used outside during the summer months are quite popular for keep mosquitoes away. The Citronella essential oil contained in the candle provides this benefit.

Essential oils emit a pleasant fragrance when blended together. They may also be blended to provide specific therapeutic actions. The essential oils must be blended in the correct proportions to achieve greater benefits than if the oils were to work independently.

Be careful of aromatherapy products that contain the label “aromatherapy” because not all products are natural and pure. You will not achieve real aromatherapy benefits with products that contain artificial ingredients. In fact, some do not provide any benefits, and at best they provide a mere fraction of the benefits. Look carefully at the ingredients to make sure that the product does not contain fragrance oils or chemical components. Be wary of products that do not list their ingredients, or those that do not have pure essential oils; avoid those products containing the word “fragrance” in their ingredients. However, there are those sellers who do sell good quality aromatherapy blends who do not list their ingredients, and for good reason, they do not want others to copy their creations. You can get a good idea of the quality of the product by asking the seller about his particular blend, then carefully note his or her response. Good suppliers will be excited about their product and want to tell you all about it.
