These are definitely two very popular starter kits. If you are purchasing a kit for family use, we have found from customer feedback that, despite the name, the Family Essentials kit can get used up quite quickly. It is more of a sample kit with the bottles being 5ml. We therefore recommend the Home Essentials kit which has 15ml bottles (except the Deep Blue which only ever comes as 5ml). 

Regardless of how many people you need the kit for, the Home Essentials is the best value with three times the amount of oils compared to the Family Essentials kit. Obviously the Home Essentials kit comes with a diffuser too which is one of the three ways to make best use of your oils. The Family Essentials kit is still a super kit to start with if this is how far your budget will stretch. 

Whatever you decide to go for, we recommend you add Fractionated Coconut Oil, Veggie Caps and a diffuser (if not already included) to your order so you can use the oils in three ways, topically, internally and aromatically.

So, here at Essential Living by Sharon we LOVE that a wide selection of doTERRA’s essential oils are approved to take internally. We drink them in cool and warm water and drinks, drop them under our tongue, take them (especially the hot oils) in veggie capsules and we use them in cooking and baking too (oh boy…peppermint brownies!). 

We can’t speak for other brands but here’s what doTERRA has to say on the topic: https://www.doterra.com/US/en/blog/science-research-news-safe-to-ingest-essential-oils

Shelf life testing performed on essential oils has shown that essential oils maintain their efficacy even after 5-10 years or more. You will find expiry dates on the bottom of each of doTERRA’s essential oil bottles. 

doTERRA recommend that their essential oils are stored at room temperature conditions, out of direct sunlight and always tightly secure the cap back on.
