Why Are Prices of Emu Oil So Different Between Brands?
Think of it like olive oil, or wine: there are many brands available.
Some are simply better and higher quality than others.
Why is that?
Because many factors go into the quality of the finished product, whether olive oil, wine or emu oil:
- Location of the farm
- Knowledge and experience of the farmer
- Care and tending of the crop (or in this case, the emus)
- Nourishment, whether that's organic fertilizer or organic feed for the emus
- Processing methods
- Certification from an independent authority
Producers who cut corners are able to offer low prices, but their products have low quality to match.
On the other hand, the family run farm that raises the emus for Emu Joy practices such high standards that Emu Joy emu oil is rated in the top 2% of emu oils in the United States. They do not need to use antibiotics to keep their emus healthy, and do not use growth hormones or steroids.

This means that Emu Joy emu oil has a greater concentration of
Another important factor: we have no water or fillers in our formulas, so the product is very concentrated. In comparison, Blue-Emu Super Strength Cream lists water as its second ingredient, after aloe gel. It's easy to have a low price when the product is watered down.
When you use a product that will be absorbed into all 7 layers of your skin, and will reach your muscles and joints, don't you want it to be the best one available? To ensure you're getting the purest product, buy emu oil from trusted suppliers who provide only the highest quality, fully tested oils.
