I love EO's. I use them for aromatherapy, bath and beauty products like soaps and bodywashes, cleaning products. I make salves, beard oils, toothpaste, mouthwash, shampoo bars and things like that.
I have Eden's Garden's the Best of the Best Collection and I have been purchasing singles.. My vanilla, and bergamot arrived last week and I have cypress, black pepper, clary sage and another one I can't remember off of the top of my head arriving tomorrow.

I love lavender and peppermint. I had really bad sunburn during my trip to Jamaica in April. I did some research and saw that lavender and peppermint help to heal sunburn. I also used peppermint oil in my classroom to help with ants. My next purchase will be vanilla.
I'm glad to see others here that also use essential oils.
The ones I have in my stash are:
balance (a blend by doTERRA)
chamomile
cinnamon
frankincense
lavender
thyme
lemongrass
myrrth
rosemary
Serenity (a blend by doTERRA)
I purchased a cute essential oil box (from Amazon) to store them in (which I'm expecting soon). It holds 25 various sizes of essential oils.

Which box did you choose? I want chamomile but it is sooooo expensive. I am going to order though.
I just ordered something simple and doable. I tried posting the link, but it's not showing up. It's an essential oil box by SOLIGT (holds 25, wooden). Here's the Amazon description:
SOLIGT 25 Slot Wooden Essential Oil Box/case, holds 25 5,10,15ml and 10ml Roller Bottles, Perfect Essential Oil Storage/organizer Case For Travel and Presentation (inner diameter height 3.5 inches)

Get clarysage and mix it with lemongrass. One of my fav blends.
I also mostly use them in my oil diffuser and for meditation. I also use a few for hair and body purposes.

I have been using EOs for many years, mainly to try to keep my follicles alive. Some I bought just to see what they smelled like. I discovered patchouli is the generic scent used in men's shaving foam. I wanted to know what the weeping woman anointed Yahshua's head with and bought some spikenard.
I love essential oils and have bought books to increase my knowledge for different uses from what I've learned from my mother. I use them for hair, beauty, illness, mood etc. I apply some neat but mostly in a carrier, or in water. I'll list as many as I can off the top of my head, but I have plenty.

I bought a set of 6 oils on Groupon for my diffuser set and I LURVE it. I have lemongrass, eucalyptus, peppermint, orange, tea tree and lavender. I love lavender for helping me sleep, tea tree/peppermint/eucalyptus for when I'm sick, and lemon or orange if my room smells like food

Thank you. I like this style. It lead me to another one that is a hard shell case with a foam insert and holds 96 bottles. I have at least 40 or 45 of just fragrance oils now so I could fill this one up in a month or two.

I use Edens's Garden, they were recommended to me by a homeopath/ aromatherapist. She also stated that Young Living and doTerra were good. I decided to go with Eden Gardens because they suit my budgets and my needs.

Thanks for the recommendation. I went to this site and all I can say is WOW. I will be ordering some of the oil blends soon.
@Thump
You're welcome. It arrived today, and I love it already. It only holds 25, but I will probably order another one in the near future.
I get my essential oils from doTERRA, and I see a few scents that I already have my eye on.

I tried to "Duplicate" a Tingly Oil I was purchasing from an ETSY Vendor
so I used:
Peppermint
Spearmint
Eucalyptus
Tea Tree
Clove
Wintergreen
Basil
Cinnamon
*I'm not much for DIY'ing, but I did take the plunge to try to re-create that Oil.

How did it turn out?

Turned out Great. I made it several times. Using EVOO, Grapeseed, Avocado (separately) as a base and added all the EO's in.
Much cheaper than what I was paying the ETSY Seller for (KJ Naturals Tingly Oil) and more potent than the last one I got from her, with much better CS.
I was buying this from her on the regula' and the last bottle I bought wasn't as pungent and I convo'ed her about it.
She made 50-11 excuses and her lack of appropriate CS skills was a turn-off so I decided to make my own and it was cheaper, I didn't have to wait for it and she lost a customer.

I have ordered from her twice with no issues, sorry you had problems. I don't blame you for not dealing with sucky customer service. I refuse too also.

Shipping was fine.
But when I told her about the Oil was lacking "Tingle" she had 50-11 excuses for why the "Tingle" was lacking.
sorry for the late reply, haven't logged on in a bit
I would suggest checking out
The complete book of essential oils - Valerie Wormwood
The encyclopedia of essential oils - Julia Lawless
There are several amazon kindle unlimited books or free books on essential oils I have looked through as well. just search on essential oil
Rose mountain herbs also gives good background on oils as well
There's a really good website I've used as well, she's affiliated with young living and she has a chart on best oils for hair by hair type.
www.experience-essential-oils.com/essential-oils-for-hair-chart.html
I used this chart to build my foundation on oils for hair
