We all need a little breather every now and then. One of my favourite ways to unwind? Taking a moment to myself and breathing in an essential oil blend. Since Ancient Egyptian times, natural essential oils have been used for multiple purposes, including religious rites and medical solutions. Today, natural aromatherapy oils are popular for their mood-boosting and stress-relieving benefits. Here’s where to buy the best essential oils in Singapore!
Innerfyre
The Innerfyre Alchemy range of 100 percent pure essential oils is set to enchant those who’ve always wanted to make their own blends. With a total of 25 different essential oils to choose from, this series also features less common (but equally fascinating) oils like Honeysuckle and Lily. Each 15ml bottle is a potent wonder of pure, unadulterated essential oil sourced directly from producers.
Also available are Essential Oil Sets bundled for specific intentions (such as Embrace Calm and Serenity or Unleash Your Inner Power), which are also perfect for those who are looking for gift options.

My Pure Earth founder Marra Hensby recommends using the brand’s sustainable Meraki diffuser to inhale the aromas. The sleek diffuser can be programmed to mist continuously for up to nine hours, or mist intermittently for up to 18 hours, and can even double as a nightlight!
