When you enroll as a doTERRA Wholesale Customer or Wellness Advocate, you have the option to purchase an enrollment kit. These kits bundle popular oils and products together at a significantly reduced price compared to buying each item separately. More importantly, enrolling with a kit immediately activates your wholesale account, giving you 25% off every future order for a full year.

Think of it this way: the kit is your entry point into the doTERRA ecosystem. A well-chosen kit gives you a solid collection of versatile oils right from day one, so you're not starting from scratch trying to figure out what to buy first.

The Most Popular doTERRA Enrollment Kits for Beginners

doTERRA updates its kit lineup periodically, but these are consistently among the most recommended options for newcomers:

1. The Home Essentials Kit

This is hands-down the most popular starter kit for beginners, and for good reason. The Home Essentials Kit includes ten of doTERRA's best-selling single oils and blends — think Lavender, Peppermint, Lemon, Frankincense, Tea Tree (Melaleuca), Oregano, Deep Blue, Breathe, DigestZen, and On Guard — plus a Petal Diffuser. Many people find this kit covers the widest range of everyday uses, from winding down at night to refreshing a room in the morning. If you want one kit that does it all, this is it.

2. The Healthy Start Kit

If you're drawn to doTERRA's wellness supplements as much as the oils themselves, the Healthy Start Kit is worth a close look. It combines some of the core essential oils with doTERRA's Lifelong Vitality Pack supplements, which are popular among those who want to support their overall wellbeing as part of a daily routine. This is a great option for people who already have a health-conscious lifestyle and want their oils to complement it.

3. The Natural Solutions Kit

For those who want to go all-in from the beginning, the Natural Solutions Kit is doTERRA's most comprehensive enrollment option. It includes a large collection of essential oils, a diffuser, and several doTERRA lifestyle products. The value is exceptional compared to retail pricing. Many Wellness Advocates actually recommend this kit to people who are serious about making essential oils a central part of their home — and who want plenty of oils to share with friends and family.

4. The Every Oil Kit

Exactly what it sounds like: this kit includes every single essential oil in doTERRA's catalog. It's not for everyone, but if you love exploring new aromas and want the full toolkit available to you immediately, some dedicated enthusiasts choose this route. It's a significant investment, but the per-bottle savings are substantial.

5. Smaller Starter Kits

Not ready to commit to a large kit? doTERRA also offers more compact options, such as the 3-Oil Introduction Kit or topical blends collections. These are ideal for someone who wants to test the waters with just a few targeted oils before expanding their collection. They still activate your wholesale membership, so you get the 25% discount on everything you order going forward.

How to Decide: Key Questions to Ask Yourself

  • What do you want to use oils for most? Diffusing for ambiance, personal care, or supporting daily wellness routines?
  • Do you already have a diffuser? If yes, consider a kit that doesn't include one and invest those savings in more oils.
  • What is your budget? Kits range from modest to premium — there is genuinely something for every price point.
  • Are you just shopping for yourself, or do you want to share with others? Larger kits give you more to explore and more to offer.

Blending Tips to Get the Most From Your New Kit

Once your kit arrives, here are a few simple ways beginners like to get started:

  1. Morning diffuser blend: 2 drops Peppermint + 2 drops Lemon + 1 drop Frankincense. Many people find this combination refreshing and uplifting to start the day.
  2. Evening wind-down: 3 drops Lavender + 2 drops Cedarwood in a diffuser about 30 minutes before bed is a favourite among those who like a calming atmosphere at night.
  3. Natural home freshener: A few drops of On Guard or Lemon in a spray bottle with water is popular for wiping down kitchen surfaces.

Safety Notes Every Beginner Should Know

Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts and should always be used with care. A few important reminders:

  • Always dilute with a carrier oil (such as fractionated coconut oil) before applying oils to skin, especially if you have sensitive skin.
  • Keep oils away from eyes and mucous membranes.
  • Some oils are not recommended for use around young children or pets — check each oil's guidelines.
  • Essential oils are not a substitute for medical treatment. If you have a health condition or are pregnant, please consult your doctor before using essential oils.
