Review on Year Plenty Droppers Essential Droppers by Janet Gonzalez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Eliminates the mess with EM

Three things I dislike about essential oils (EM): 1. Mess when the oil pools under the plastic dropper (which comes in the bottle) and in the cap. 2. Wait forever until finally some oil comes out of the plastic pipette. 3. The inaccuracy of the plastic pipette. These glass pipettes completely or almost completely solved these problems. About the mess: On every one of my EO bottles, I replace the plastic pipette with one of these glass pipettes. I no longer have oil build up around the plastic dropper and in the cap. I also don't leave oil on my fingers where the scent/smell can linger for hours even after washing my hands. The oil left on my fingers can also transfer to the foods I cook (like salads). The problem of clutter is also a problem of waste. The oil that collects on the plastic pipette and in the lid is the oil that I end up throwing away. About Slow Oils and Precision: So far these glass pipettes have sucked up and dispensed every essential oil I've had. None of the oils were too thick (viscous) for a glass pipette. I have much better control over how much EO is distributed. However, I can't say I have complete control with the glass dropper as I sometimes get two drops instead of one. However, an extra drop from time to time gives more accuracy than I have with the plastic dropper of EO bottles. Questions I Answered Myself: (1) Yes, these droppers are perfect for my YL bottles. The 30ml are perfect for my NOW bottles. (2) Glass pipettes are placed in a completely filled EO bottle with no loss of oil (i.e. none of them will spill due to displacement by the glass pipette). In fact, the glass pipettes fit into the new bottle, which I "topped up" with some oil from the old bottle. If I'm worried about a new bottle being too full, I can draw up some oil by sticking a glass dropper in the bottle. Things to think about: (1) Those glass pipettes actually make the EO bottle bigger. Make sure the slightly larger bottles fit where you intend to store them. (2) If you like a uniform look, you can buy all black eyedroppers. (3) If you like the color combination, please note that not all label colors match the dropper colors. (4) If you try to match the color of the bottle label to the color of the dropper, you'll probably find that you're missing a dropper in certain colors (like blue and green) and possibly too many other colors. Also, as mentioned earlier, not all label colors have a corresponding eyedropper color. (5) If you don't care if the label matches the color of the eyedropper or if it looks the same, you might like the combination of black and color. Using some colored eyedroppers can help you find a specific bottle of EO. Salesperson. Please consider adding more colors. For example, I (and I bet others) could use red. You might also consider selling more solid color dropper packs, not just black. I can think of reasons why you wouldn't want customers to choose the colors themselves, but offering more custom colors (like blue, green, red) can give you a slight competitive advantage.
