Question
Where I can purchase pure essential oil in cheaper price?

Answer
Well Arslan, it depends upon what you are purchasing the oils for.  If you are buying the oils to scent your home you can get oils from your local health food store for a pleasant scent.  If you are looking to use he essential oils to use them as physical and emotional medicine you will have to be willing to spend more money for quality.  You will want to have a reputable company that sells pure therapeutic grade essential oils.  Make sure their oils are pure and undiluted.  The oils also need to be from the fist distillation of the plant to make sure they are a high concentration.  I personally have used Young Living oils which are wonderful oils, but because of their muli-level marketing and their high overhead they are too expensive for most families.  Another great company is Butterfly Express which is a small company out of Idaho that bottles and sells essential oils.  Their product is great and they are very friendly and helpful.  You can order their oils at www.mybutterflyoils.com.  I am sure there are others on the Internet with oils at cheaper prices, just make sure to ask the questions I gave you above.  Let me know if I can answer any further questions for you.
