Freebies During the Month of October

With any order (Subscribe to Save or one time shop order) of 100 PV or more, you will receive FREE SHIPPING. Stock up on fall-time favorites and your order will ship for free.

With any order (Subscribe to Save or Shop) of 190 PV or more, you'll receive a free 5 mL CINNAMON BARK AND CLOVE. If your order is a Subscribe to Save order (previously Essential Rewards), you'll also receive a free 5 mL NUTMEG.

• Usher in the season. Cinnamon is THE oil of fall, so add Ito to your diffuser, your DIYs, your roller blends - even your coffee grounds.
• Unwind and relax. Mix 3 drops of Cinnamon Bark oil with some V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex and use it for a warming foot massage. Then put on a pair of soft socks to keep your feet cozy and moisturized.
• Spice it up. Make a room spray by filling a spray bottle with 3 ounces of water and 4 drops each of Cinnamon Bark, Clove and Orange essential oils.

• Add antioxidants. Clove essential oil is an antioxidant powerhouse! Clove has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 1,078,700 μTE/100 g, meaning it provides your body with a large supply of antioxidants to support health and healing. (To give you an idea of what this means, oranges are created 750 μTE/100 g and kale is rated at 1,770 μTE/100 g.)
• Spice up a soak. After a day of outdoor adventures, draw a warm bath, add 2 drops Clove to 1 cup Epsom salt and then add to your bath water (ideally, let the water run into and over a cup containing the salts) for a relaxing soak. Sit back and soak up all the health benefits of Clove essential oil.
• Don't want the full body experience? Cut the recipe in half and add the salts to warm water to a large bin for a simple, wonderful foot soak.
• Feel forest fresh. Add 3-4 drops of Clove to a glass spray bottle to bring in a warm, woodsy scent that simply sings of the outdoors.

• Say goodby to stress. Give your stress response system (adrenals!) some love with a daily dose of Nutmeg. Dilute and apply over the lower back morning and evening. Pair with Clove, Frankincense and Rosemary for added benefits.
• Freshen up fall. Make a homely linen spray by combining a few drops of Nutmeg, Clove, and Bergamot in a spray bottle filled with 2 cups of water. This cozy scent will make guests feel right at home.
• Work in bliss. Refresh your home office with a diffuser blend of Nutmeg and Eucalyptus Radiata for a spicy-fresh scent that will make your upcoming meeting a little brighter.
• Note: for Subscribe to Save orders only.

250 PV Orders

• Warm up indoor workouts. Diffuse Patchouli oil to add a comforting atmosphere to a calming yoga session or as you stretch before bed.
• Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. With cold weather coming in, skin can get drier and direr. Add a drop or two of Pachouli oil to your favorite face lotion for extra moisture your skin will love.

With any order of 300 PV, you'll receive a free bottle of IMMUPRO TABLETS and all of the above with FREE SHIPPING!

You can use this oil to help you move out of a fake role and more into the true version of you.

Mineral Sunscreen

June Ditch & Switch

As the gatekeepers of our home we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products for ourselves and families! 

Join us as we detox our beach bags this month and switch out convention chemical sunscreens for Young Living's Mineral Sunscreen. This switch is a simple one that can have a huge impact on your health and the health of your family.

• Oxybenzone - (sometimes called benzophenone-3) is one of the most commonly-used sunscreen chemicals, it is linked to endocrine disruption, organ system toxicity, contact allergies, and photoallergies, meaning exposure to light is required to generate an allergic response. In fact, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) recommends avoiding oxybenzone because of concerns that this ingredient may disrupt hormones and cause allergic skin reactions. Oxybenzone is also harmful to aquatic life, in 2018 Hawaii banned it to protect coral reefs.
• Octinoxate - commonly used UV filter that protects from UVB rays, but not UVA rays. It may be listed as OMC, methoxy-cinnamate or ethylhexyl methoxy-cinnamate and is lined to endocrine disruption as well as reproductive toxicity. Researchers have detected octinoxate in breast milk, urine, and blood. Like oxybenzone, this ingredient was targeted in Hawaii's ban, as it harms coral reefs.
• Homosalate - a common ingredient that absorbs only UVB rays to prevent direct skin exposure. Homosalate is linked to hormone disruption and may also enhance the absorption and penetration of pesticides, including bug sprays, as well as other harmful ingredients found within sunscreen.

• Contains naturally derived plant and mineral based ingredients, including non-nano zinc oxide, so it's not absorbed into the bloodstream.
• Available in broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection.
• Filled with skin-loving essential oils like Helichrysum, Carrot Seed, and Frankincense that put a protective barrier on your skin and help retain the skin's natural moisture while out in the sun.
• Has a non-greasy, lightweight formula that goes on smoothly (aka no white residue).
• Stays water and sweat resistant for 80 minutes
• Carries an official global certification from the National Skin Cancer Foundation and is recommended for daily use to help prevent skin cancer.
• It is safe for ALL skin types and won't clog pores.
• It is reef safe! An estimated 14,000 tons of sunscreen go into the ocean each year and most (all chemical based ones) kill coral reefs. It is such a problem that Hawaii passed a bill banning ingredients that harm coral reefs.

• SPF 15 blocks 93% of UVB rays
  
• SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays
• SPF 50 blocks 98% of UVB rays
  
• SPF 100 blocks 99% of UVB rays

• Wash and prime your face, then apply the SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen all over your face and rub it gently but completely. You may find it helpful to lightly set the sunscreen with a dusting of Diamond Dust before applying the rest of your makeup.
• Apply the rest of your Savvy Minerals as usual. Or, skip the full face look and tint your sunscreen with your Savvy Foundation. Quick and easy for summer days!
