DIY: The Best Essential Oils Starter Kit for Holiday Gift Giving

With the holidays right around the corner, now is a great time for gift planning.

If you’re searching for that perfect gift for that hard-to-buy-for person, or something special for yourself, gifting someone the very best essential oil starter kit is an excellent choice. After all, what better way is there to show you care than with a gift that supports good health and well-being?

If you want to add something extra special to your essential oil starter kit – make sure you check out our list of fabulous Christmas blend recipes for the diffuser.

I like to recommend you build your own kit, so that you can tailor the oils included to the person who will be using them. That way if the person you are buying for already has one or two of the most popular oils you can help them diversify.

Best Essential Oils Starter Kit Oils to Include

Here are the oils I recommend you include in the Best Essential Oils Starter Kit. I’ve included fourteen oils so that you can fill a storage case for twelve oils if you want to. These are my absolute favorites and my go-to oils. Pick oils to fit your budget or get them all for that extra special someone.

• Lavender Hungary (my favorite Lavendar!)
• Red Mandarin
• Bergamot
• Frankincense Serrata
• Peppermint
• Immune Strength
• Orange
• Lemon
• Purify
• Tea Tree
• Helichrysm Italicum (my most-used oil but also the most expensive)

Best Essential Oils Starter Kit Carriers to Include

Since most oils should be diluted for proper safety, I recommend you also include a few carrier oils with the best essential oils starter kit gift. My suggestion would be to include Fractionated Coconut Oil and Better Butter so that your gift recipient has a liquid carrier and a solid carrier for different applications.

Best Essential Oils Starter Kit Storage

I also highly recommend your kit include some kind of storage container. I love the new wooden boxes from Rocky Mountain Oils – they are very high quality. You could also choose to get something super cute from ETSY like this sweet case. If the person you are buying for has young children, you might consider a locking case.

Best Essential Oils Diffuser to Include

If the person you are buying for is new to essential oils, diffusing them is a great way to get started because it’s so simple and easy to do. It’s a good idea to choose a pretty diffuser to gift with your starter kit.

Putting together the Best Essential Oils Starter Kit

Once you have your oils, diffuser, and a storage box, it’s time to put it all together! Place all of the oils into the storage case and top it with pretty seasonal tissue paper for the special occasion. Then tie a pretty ribbon around the storage case to add some gift flair. Wrap the Fractionated Coconut Oil bottle in tissue and tie with ribbon. Do the same with the Better Butter. Finally, put everything down into a pretty gift bag filled with tissue and tie with ribbon. Your holiday gift of the Best Essential Oil Starter Kit is ready to go!
