Ten Young Living Products I Use the Most

I often get asked what my favorite Young Living products are, but that is FAR too hard a question for me because I like and benefit from so many.

So instead, I'm going to share my top 10 most frequently used products from Young Living. I use all ten of these at least once every day.

1) Thieves Household Cleaner 

Thieves Household Cleaner replaces EVERY cleaner in your home. It works well for mirrors, floors, counters, sinks, windows, carpet, and more. On top of it being extremely convenient (no need to switch sprays for different things), it is super concentrated, meaning one bottle lasts a long time AND is very cost effective. Oh and did I mention it smells good without any synthetic ingredients?!?! (Hooray for cleaning without getting a headache!)

2) Lavender Essential Oil

This was the very first essential oil I ever used (while still a skeptic). I placed a drop on the bottom of my big toes (Vita Flex point for the brain) and my sleep has forever changed. On top of using it every night, it also is good for so much more than sleep. I use it on burns (cooking burns and sunburn), bug bites, zits, and more. It's aptly nicknamed the "Swiss army knife" of oils because it is so versatile.

3) Hand Soap 

BEFORE: Lots of irritation

AFTER: All cleared!

Our home has Young Living's hand soap at every sink, so I obviously use this multiple times every day. I had major skin irritation on my left hand for a couple years and my dermatologist prescribed steroids that I used for over 6 months. Didn't work. And then we switched to Young Living hand soap. Clearly either the fragrance or other synthetic ingredients in my old soaps were having a bigger effect than I realized. We now rotate between Young Living's Thieves and Lavender hand soaps (and Christmas Spirit soon!); they are formulated to be gentle but still effective.

4) Thieves Roll-On

Thieves is such a powerhouse blend of oils, great for supporting our immune systems. With two young boys (I'm pretty sure they are magnets for germs!), I'll take as much immune support as I can get. I roll this on the bottoms of my feet each night to take advantage of the large pores there. I obviously can't say with 100% certainty that it is what has helped me avoid sickness, but knowing how many germs typically pass around this time of year, I'm not going to stop any time soon.

5) ART Light Moisturizer 

Young Living has an entire facial line called the ART line, which stands for Age Refining Technology. I have combination skin and love that this particular moisturizer nourishes the dry parts of my face, but also isn't too heavy for my oily sections. Like all Young Living products, it doesn't contain any synthetic ingredients, meaning I can apply to my skin (which absorbs whatever we put on it) with confidence I am not causing more harm than good. I use it both morning and night.

6) NingXia Red

NingXia was my very first Young Living purchase. (Read about that here.) I liked the idea of absorbing a high amount of antioxidants daily. I drink a shot glass of NingXia each day (typically in the early afternoon to also serve as a pick-me-up). The wolfberry in NingXia is known to be beneficial for brain and eye health and with my family history of Parkinsons and macular degeneration, I will take any preventative measures I can.

7) Thieves Dish Soap

This is one I wish I didn't have to use every day (do dishes ever end?!?), but I'm glad I have an all-natural dish soap that actually works. (Side note: A lot of dish soaps that advertise as "all-natural" aren't really -- do your research!) *Young Living also has a fabulous Thieves dishwasher powder, but because our family hand washes a lot of our dishes, we run the dishwasher only once or twice a week, therefore, the dish soap is used far more frequently in our house.

8) Savvy Minerals Foundation

I have used mineral foundation for many years, so switching to Savvy Minerals was an easy decision. Unlike many other mineral makeups out there, Savvy is truly made with all natural ingredients and doesn't contain ingredients known to be harmful (talc, mineral oil, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, etc.) commonly found in makeup products. I love that I can apply Savvy foundation without any guilt or fear regarding the ingredients my skin is absorbing and yet it still works well.

9) Thieves Toothpaste

Young Living has FIVE different toothpaste formulations. My personal (current) favorite is the Thieves Dentarome Ultra. It has a strong wintergreen/peppermint taste and cleans well. Young Living toothpastes do not foam up like traditional toothpastes, but knowing I'm not putting synthetic foaming agents in my mouth is comforting to me. (Plus, the foam isn't necessary for cleaning purposes.)

10) Wolfberry Eye Cream

This eye cream is very rich and creamy, so you only need a pinky dab of it to split between both eyes. I'm pretty confident my container may last the rest of my life. I apply this nightly before bed and love the way it nourishes the delicate skin around my eyes.

Well, there you have it: a snapshot of the Young Living products I use the most. If you're ever interested in swapping out some of your everyday products for natural, truly non-toxic items, let me know. I'd love to help you find the best deal and fit for you.
