About Face

I am SO wanting to try this! The tape thing is very interesting; I would not have thought of that one.


Every 30-60 days, your skin completely replaces itself by eliminating dead cells and allowing new cells to flourish. This sloughing-off process keeps your skin healthy and looking more youthful. Unfortunately, environmental debris, including makeup, can impede the removal of dead skin cells and keep younger cells hidden beneath.
Properly exfoliating is crucial to healthy skin, and Young Living’s Satin Facial Scrub, Mintgently reveals a more radiant, younger-looking complexion. Its effective removal of cells also facilitates the absorption of nourishing serums and moisturizers designed to prolong a youthful appearance.
We suggest that you exfoliate twice a week; however, depending on your skin type and climate, you can easily determine if you need to treat your face more or less by simply applying a clear piece of tape on your forehead. Gently rub it over your skin and remove. If flakes of skin are on the tape, it’s time to exfoliate.
For those who have never tried Satin Facial Scrub, Mint, you are in for a treat. Be prepared to have your skin look and feel smoother, softer, and younger.
I would love to hear what you think!

Cooking with YL!


Young Living essential oils are perfect for cooking. While there are many recipes that include essential oils, why not use the best in the industry when cooking an all-natural, healthy meal that your family will love? So if you’re in a “What can I make for dinner?” dilemma, don’t you worry; here’s a recipe that is sure to bring the family to the dinner table.
Conchiglie with Chickpeas and Garlic-Rosemary Oil
Recipe by Jason Pilkington—Young Living Distributor
Ingredients 
• 1 medium onion, quartered
• 1 medium carrot, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 celery stalk, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 6 garlic cloves, 4 whole, 2 chopped
• ½ cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
• ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• ½ cup olive oil, divided
• Kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 15-ounce cans chickpeas, rinsed
• 1 pound Conchigile (small shells) or elbow macaroni
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 2 Drops YL rosemary oil
• 2 Drops YL black pepper oil
• 1 Drop YL basil oil
Preparation
• Pulse onion, carrot, celery, whole garlic cloves, parsley, and red pepper flakes in a food processor until finely chopped; transfer to a small bowl and set aside. Wipe out food processor bowl and set aside.
•  Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large, heavy pot over medium heat; add reserved vegetable mixture, season with salt, and cook, stirring often until golden, 8-10 minutes. Stir tomato paste and 1 cup water together in a small bowl; add to pot. Cook, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until liquid has almost evaporated, 5-8 minutes.
• Add chickpeas and 2 cups water to pot and simmer for 15 minutes to let flavors meld. Transfer 1 cup chickpea mixture to food processor; purée until smooth; then stir back into sauce to thicken.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking liquid.
• Add rosemary, pepper, and basil oils. Add pasta and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid to sauce and stir to coat. Increase heat to medium and continue stirring, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed, until sauce coats pasta.
• Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in a small sauce pan over medium-low heat; add chopped garlic and rosemary and cook until sizzling stops, about 1 minute. Divide pasta among bowls and drizzle with garlic-rosemary oil.

DIY Shaving Cream


The other day I was talking to some old acquaintances, who asked me what I do for a living. When I said that I work for Young Living Essential Oils, the questions started pouring in. The one question they asked that stuck in my mind was, “What exactly can you do with essential oils?” The obvious answers are to diffuse them, take some internally, and apply some topically. However, I started thinking that maybe it is better to have more specific uses for essential oils and everyday ways to experience their therapeutic benefits. Because of this, I would like to dedicate time to new ideas each month on the product blog.
Earlier this week I shared a recipe from one of our distributors that was sure to bring good health to your dinner table using essential oils.
Today I’d like to share something a little different. Here’s a simple alternative to store-bought shaving cream with a Young Living twist that will keep your skin smooth and hydrated.
Easy Homemade Shaving Cream
What You Need:
• 2 drops lavender essential oil
• 1 drop lime essential oil
Preparation:
• Mix the cedarwood, lavender, and lime essential oils in a bowl.
• Add the V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex and stir.
• Add the conditioner of choice to the mixture and whip it until it is light and creamy.
• Gently apply to your face, legs, or other areas and begin shaving.
The beauty of this recipe is that you can substitute a wide array of oils for your own personal needs.
Enjoy—and please share your experience below.

Shake, Pour, Enjoy


“Which essential oils do you recommend adding to the new NingXia Red?” is a popular question I see on a regular basis. My answer, “It depends on your focus.” I know, Iknow, that is probably not the answer you are looking for. I want to walk you through some steps for customizing your NingXia Red.
Step 1
Determine your need. Everyone has their own special desires. My focus is twofold; first, I like to add additional flavors to appeal to my pallet. For this I generally stick to the citrus oils. Lime is my current favorite, but be warned a little goes a long way. Second, I am interested in adding tangeritin to my diet. Thus, I add quite a bit of tangerineessential oil to my juice. Our Customer Care Department (CCD) is a great resources for determining which oils you use.
Step 2
Because I don’t normally change my needs day to day, I like to customize my entire bottle of juice by adding the oils directly to the bottle. This simplifies my morning routine and makes sure I don’t miss out on the benefits.
Step 3
Shake, pour, and enjoy. You now have a quick and simple way to make sure you are getting your customized daily whole-body nutrient infusion.
Here are a few simple recipes for creating your own customized bottle of NingXia Red. As always please follow individual label cautions and usage guidelines.
Tangeritin Blast (adds a splash of tangeritin)
10 drops tangerine essential oil
3 drops lime essential oil
Immunity (perfect for supporting a healthy immune system)
2 drops Thieves essential oil blend (can easily overpower the flavor)
4 drops lemon essential oil
4 drops tangerine essential oil
Slique Shot (great addition to the Slique regimen)
7 drops Slique Essence essential oil blend
2 drops lime essential oil blend
Good Morning Shot (wakes you up in the morning)
5 drops cinnamon bark essential oil
4 drops peppermint essential oil
2 drops orange essential oil
2 drops tangerine essential oil
1 drop lime essential oil
Please share any additional recipes you may have and the reasons for adding the specific oils.

Cleansing with Lemon


Using Young Living Every Day: Cleansing with Lemon
“[A combination of] vinegar, hot water, and lemon oil does a great job cleaning the floor and tile grout. Vinegar, water, and lemon in a spray bottle will clean and shine granite counter tops beautifully. Lemon oil and olive oil make a great stainless-steel polish!”
—Evangeline Joy Reed, YL Gold
