Safety and Usage

How do I use oils?
SAFETY FIRST
  • Please dilute your oils. Especially when using for the first time or with children.
  • Do not put them in your eyes or ears. 
  • Follow directions on labels. 
*Once you get your own starter kit, your sponsor will connect with you and go over more safety tips and suggestions in detail! 

The solid labels have aromatic and topical directions on them.
1. Apply topically on your skin. Dilute them with a carrier oil like coconut oil or grapeseed oil. They are quickly absorbed and effective.
2. Use aromatically in the diffuser or by inhaling them from diffuser jewelry or after putting some on your hands.
3. Internally  -Young Living oils are safe to ingest. The labels that are white are from their vitality line and have dietary instructions on them.
* NOTE: Oils from the Regular line are the same oil as the vitality line. For example: Peppermint oil from the regular line and Peppermint oil from the vitality line have different labels (per FDA rules) but are the SAME OIL.

The “Swiss Army Knife” of oils with many uses. Lavender is very relaxing when applied or inhaled. 

EASY EVERYDAY USES:
  • Before bed, rub a few drops into palms and over pillow, back of neck, and bottom of feet
  • Diffuse to unwind after a long day
  • Apply to boo-boos

DIFFUSER: Put 4-8 drops in your diffuser every night (or during nap time). Promotes a restful night sleep, health, love, peace, and a general sense of well being.

TOPICAL: Apply to vita flex points or area of concern. 
Lemon Essential Oil and Lemon Vitality are cold pressed from the rind of the fruit, giving its aroma all the brightness of the freshly picked fruit. Contains d-limonene (an oil nutrient called a terpene) and high in antioxidants.

Easy Everyday Uses:
  • A drop of Lemon Vitality in your water to support your body with a natural detox. 
  • Add a drop in a bowl of water and soak your fruits and veggies for two minutes to clean off nasty petrochemicals.
  • Use as a “goo-gone” for sticky residues, Crayola and marker.

DIFFUSER:
Lemon essential oil is invigorating and warming, soothes, calms, and promotes clarity of thought when inhaled. Diffuse when feeling sluggish or in need of clarity and mental focus. Great to diffuse when completing tasks such as studying or working.


TOPICAL: 
It has been widely used in skin care to support healthy looking skin. 

*Citrus oils contain phytotoxins which cause skin sensitivity when exposed to the sun. Avoid direct sunlight for 12-24 hours after use.

INTERNAL: 
Fantastic addition to flavors that complement citrus. Lemon Vitality also supports a healthy circulatory system.
Lemon essential oil is cold pressed from the rind which means there is no citric acid in it. Therefore lemon Vitality tends to be easy on the stomach when
ingested and preferred by many in water vs. squeezing lemon juice into water.

*Citrus oils are amazing at breaking down petrochemicals. Always use glass or stainless steel containers when mixing with food or beverages intended to be ingested.
​

Peppermint Essential Oil is steam distilled from the leaves, stems, and flower buds of the mint plant. Peppermint is one of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Peppermint essential oil is much stronger than the dried herb. For example, 1 drop of Peppermint oil has the same benefit as drinking 26 cups of peppermint tea using the dried herb.

EASY EVERYDAY USES: 
  • Dilute on temples
  • Diffuse in the am to “come alive” or after school to help with homework focus
  • Use a drop of Peppermint Vitality on your tongue to freshen breath

DIFFUSER: Has an uplifting aroma. Great to inhale during mental tasks as it can help with mental alertness and concentration. Peppermint is invigorating, purifying, and stimulating. May also help with anger.

TOPICAL: Rub onto stomach and Vita Flex Points after a large meal.
Peppermint is cooling and soothing.
Applying Peppermint NEAT (no carrier oil) to the back of your neck on a hot summer day will help you cool off. If you do not like that cooling sensation, add more carrier oil to dilute on your skin.
To cool older children down, dilute and apply to feet.

Rub on temples to relieve head tension.

INTERNAL: A perfect after meal oil.  

Caught a case of the hiccups or having head tension? Put a drop of peppermint on your thumb and place thumb on the roof of your mouth. Use this oil to add a minty flavor to any food.

With Frankincense's AMAZING abilities in the body and it’s extensive distillation process, this one is very popular and highly adulterated. You do not want to order this from anywhere but Young Living to assure you are getting a 100% pure product.

In order to collect the Frankincense resin, they scar the bark of a 40+-year-old Boswellia Tree. The tree, trying to protect itself, leaks a resin through the scarred area. The gum resin is collected and stored in caves for three months and then goes through a 6-12 month distillation process. So basically your Frank took a year to get perfectly in that bottle for you. No wonder it is so adulterated and diluted by other companies.

Frankincense is an ancient oil also considered a holy oil in the Middle East. We know that it was given to Christ at the time of his birth and valued more than gold at one time. The uses and benefits of Frankincense date back way before the time of Christ to the Egyptians and Sumerians. You can find Frankincense referenced in the bible 52 times.

EASY EVERYDAY USES:

  • Add a drop to your daily moisturizer.
  • Apply to wrists before quiet time.
  • Add 1 drop of Frankincense Vitality to your daily wellness capsule. 

DIFFUSER: It is uplifting and centering. Put 4-6 drops in your diffuser and enjoy the rich, deep, warm, balsamic, sweet aroma. Diffuse when needing to feel grounded or during meditation to connect with your spiritual side.

TOPICAL:Apply daily to face or any area of concern. Trust us, you won’t regret it. Who doesn't love the idea of 21-year-old skin forever! 

*Dilute when using with small children.

INTERNAL: Frankincense Vitality is a wonderful oil to place in a veggie capsule and consume daily to support emotions, your Immune system, and nervous system. You can also dilute one drop in 1 tsp honey and mix in 8 oz of water for a morning tea. We also like to add one drop Lemon, Peppermint, and Thieves vitality for a wonderful digestive and immune tea.
