While shopping, use a reference first to check product identity. Find the plant name, match it with the intended entry and keep missing fields as questions for the seller. A general plant article does not establish an individual bottle's quality.
Start with the label
Record the product name, botanical name and ingredients. Note whether the item is a blend, roll-on or carrier-based product. For a sealed box, ask for available information without opening someone else's merchandise.
Open your installed eoASSIST app or the web catalogue. On 11 November 2026, the guest website opened the Lavender entry without sign-in. This does not test every mobile-app feature or promise offline access.
The eoASSIST oil reference
Search for oils by name and open their reference entries.
Compare five fields
| Bottle field | Comparison |
|---|---|
| Name | The exact product, not just a familiar word |
| Botanical name | Species and any stated chemotype |
| Plant part | Leaves, flowers, peel or other stated material |
| Ingredients | One oil, a blend or a carrier-based product |
| Batch | A match to that manufacturer's documents |
Handle a mismatch explicitly
If the search shows similar names, open the entries and compare their botanical names. Do not select the first result by its picture. Record the discrepancy precisely: for example, the package names flowers while the selected entry describes leaves.
Ask for the technical description of that item code. If information is missing, you can wait for an answer before buying. An incomplete entry or different translation alone does not identify a counterfeit.
Keep the product record
With permission, photograph the label and record the item, volume and batch. Keep the reference entry separate as general information. This identity check does not determine treatment use or personal safety.
Prepare with the installation guide, entry-search guide and label checklist. This workflow does not assume barcode scanning or image recognition.
