non-mlm essential oil brand | family owned

having been what’s now called ‘green-washed,’ I used mlm based essential oils before knowing any better. back around 2015 I was approached by a friend who sold doterra. I immediately read up on the subject and blindly thought nothing of the fact that I was being way overcharged and misled. it was a big bright new world for me to obsess over.

I diffused, made roller bottle blends, I added it to lotions, I even remember drinking some of them in water.

then the YL came and my SIL dipped her toes in. I had a new supply.

around 2019 or so a friend approached me about working for a massive online store, melaleuca. having just moved into our first owned home, we got a huge box delivered. oils, cleaners of all kinds, vitamins, you name it. at the time, I didn’t even try to sell it. everyone knew what a pyramid scheme looks like. boss babes and cult-like faith in product.

if you have it in yourself to find pyramid marketing a morally neutral activity then good for you. I just can’t do it anymore.

I have always loved the crunchy way of life and knew a real source of eo’s was necessary. the hunt was cut short when I realized there were still very few options to chose from.

I found simply earth, I fell in love with it (of course I did). its a family owned business that started because of stinky feet :) They do charity work in the fight against human trafficking: donating profits to aid against human trafficking and bringing awareness to the realities of sex workers.
