Collagen Peptide Serum Spotlight - July 2025

Collagen Peptide Serum Spotlight

Look young, feel young, and live young with this amazing new skin serum. This age-defying serum visibly firms, brightens, and smooths with natural botanicals from farms that support reforestation and orchid conservation. The Collagen Peptide Serum is a win for everyone!

Note: This product is only available for convention attendees in the month of July. It will be available to all members at a later date - stay tuned!

Collagen Peptide Serum at a Glance

  • Sea fennel extract offers the benefits of retinol without the irritation and dryness, supporting healthy collagen production and visible elasticity, while minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Vegan collagen peptides work to restore a visible firmness to skin and visibly diminish fine lines and wrinkles
  • Patents-pending DeepSpectra technology captures boswellic acids from Frankincense, which help reduce the appearance of uneven skin tone.
  • Antioxidants help shield from environmental stressors to make the skin appear brighter and more supple
  • Hydrating Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood, Rose, and Ylang Ylang blend may promote the appearance of youthful-looking skin.
Say hello to beauty sleep in a tube with this incredible, vegan collagen serum! Powered by vegan collagen peptides, sea fennel extract, and frankincense-derived boswellic acids exclusively from DeepSpectra technology, this skin loving serum is a nature-based alternative to synthetic retinol with all the benefits minus the dryness, sensitization, and flaking.

Background

By age 40, most of us have lost 20% of the collagen in our skin. By age 50, that increases to 30%. When we lose collagen faster than we can rebuild, our skin takes a toll (even despite a healthy lifestyle and diet!). 

This is often when women reach for retinol – it has great benefits! But it is also infamous for redness, flaking ,irritation, and sun sensitivity.

What if we could get the same… or even better results than retinal but with clean ingredients? We can age gracefully and gorgeously!

With this Collagen Peptide Serum you can get the retinol results without all the harsh chemicals – and damage to the environment! This hydrating facial serum visibly reduces the look of fine lines and promotes a firmer appearance, without irritation or harsh chemicals. It’s packed with antioxidants that help skin appear brighter and more supple. Sustainably sourced Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood and Ylang Ylang essential oils add skin-loving benefits while supporting reforestation efforts in Hawaii and native orchid conservation in Ecuador - because both you and the earth deserve to age beautifully.

Key Ingredients

  • Collagen amino acids sustainably derived from microalgae make this product completely plant-based. When combined with Haematococcus pluvialis extract, this powerful duo helps stimulate natural collagen production, support a healthy skin barrier, restore a visible firmness, and hydrate the skin. Vegan collagen peptides are specifically designed to mimic or support the body’s own collagen production, without using any animal sources. While true collagen only comes from animals, vegan collagen peptides are essentially bioactive peptides + nutrients that stimulate collagen synthesis and protect existing collagen and when upcycled, they are made more sustainably. Read more about vegan collagen peptides and how incredible they are in the clinical study!
Hydrating Botanicals
A blend of watermelon, lentil, and apple extracts works alongside sunflower seed oil, sodium hyaluronate, and squalane to plump and hydrate the skin. Together, these botanicals provide an instant boost of plumping hydration that lasts up to 24 hours.

  • Watermelon rind is one of nature’s few materials to contain citrulline, which supports filaggrin, a key part of the skin’s natural moisturizing complex.
  • Lentil extract is high in vitamin B5 and trisaccharides, which help retain moisture.
  • Apple extract provides polysaccharides, sodium lactate, and sodium PCA for long-lasting hydration.
  • Sea fennel extract naturally supports collagen production, improves skin elasticity, and minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is nature’s answer to retinol! All the benefits (and more) – enhances skin brightness and reduces crows feet wrinkles even better than retinol. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, C, and E this extract is gentle enough for sensitive skin – no flaking or dryness that retinol can cause. Sustainably sourced, sea fennel has a much lower environmental impact than conventional options.
  • Boswellic acids from Frankincense help reduce the appearance of uneven skin tone. Boswellic acid is extracted via Deep Spectra technology to extract even more beneficial compounds than other methods. It also uses all parts of the plant so as to reduce environmental impact.
  • Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood, Rose, and Ylang Ylang essential oils hydrate and promote youthful skin.
How To Use Collagen Peptide Serum

With clean hands, gently press 1 dropper of this hydrating collagen and sea fennel serum into clean, dry skin morning and night. Avoid the eye area.

Daily Hormone Essentials Spotlight - July 2025

Daily Hormone Essentials Spotlight

Feel balanced naturally with Daily Hormone Essentials. This clinically backed, plant-powered supplement offers daily hormone support through PMS, perimenopause, and menopause - all in one easy, on-the-go pouch. 

Daily Hormone Essentials at a Glance

  • Helps support healthy mood and energy throughout the month
  • Promotes balanced cortisol levels and supports restful sleep
  • Supports comfort through hot flashes, night sweats, and hormonal transitions
  • Supports mental clarity, memory, and cognitive function
  • Formulated with herbal extracts, essential oils, and minerals
  • NO Hormones, added sugars artificial colors artificial sweeteners artificial preservatives
Daily Hormone Essentials is a hormone-free women’s hormonal health supplement that blends clinically studied botanicals, adaptogens, and essential oils into a fast-absorbing gel. It supports healthy energy, libido, mood, restful sleep, cortisol balance, and everyday stress management - while promoting comfort through hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, and fatigue. All that without added sugar or the side effects of typical hormone therapy. Simply sip and feel like you again at every stage of life.

Background

Hormonal changes are a natural part of life, but that doesn’t mean they’re easy. Whether it’s PMS, perimenopause, or menopause, shifts in estrogen and progesterone can lead to mood swings, low energy, brain fog, hot flashes, and other not-so-fun symptoms.

That’s where Daily Hormone Essentials comes in. This hormone- free, plant-powered supplement gives you daily support through all three stages of your hormonal journey. It blends clinically studied herbal extracts, adaptogens, and essential oils into one fast-absorbing gel - no pills, powders, or added hormones needed.

Key Ingredients

  • Herbal complex - Your hormone’s BFF. A clinically studied blend of red giant angelica (Angelica gigas), silk plant (Cynanchum wilfordii), and fireweed (Phlomis umbrosa) that promotes comfort through menopause’s curveballs - hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, vaginal dryness, fatigue, and more - while supporting a healthy mood throughout the month. All without the side effects of typical hormone therapy.
  • Chaste tree berry - Keeps the roller coaster in check. This period sidekick offers support for hormonal balance and common PMS symptoms.
  • Ashwagandha - The chill-out root. This adaptogen helps support restful sleep, balanced cortisol, mental clarity, and healthy everyday stress management.
  • Maca root - The all-in adaptogen. Maca root is often used to support reproductive health and provide comfort through menopause. Some research also suggests that it may help support mood and ease everyday stress.
  • Frankincense - Ancient wisdom meets modern extraction. The patents-pending DeepSpectra technology uses Frankincense essential oil to unlock powerful compounds from the resin, studied for their potential to support women’s hormonal health and natural hormone balance.
  • Magnesium glycinate - The mellow mineral. This highly bioavailable form of magnesium supports restful sleep, relaxed muscles, and a chill nervous system when you need it most.
Clinical Studies at a Glance

The herbal complex in Daily Hormone Essentials is clinically shown to:
  • Promote comfort through menopausal transition, including hot flashes, numbness and tingling, insomnia, nervousness, vertigo, fatigue, joint discomfort, and vaginal dryness
  • Lead to a 62% improvement in KMI (Kupperman Menopausal Index) score compared to placebo
  • Deliver results with none of the side effects of typical hormone therapy
  • Read the studies themselves right hereright hereright herehere, and here.
At the heart of this formula is a herbal complex shown in three randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled clinical studies to promote comfort through hormonal transitions. One of these studies showed it helped with these 12 common symptoms:
  • Hotflashes
  • Numbness and tingling
  • Insomnia
  • Nervousness
  • Mood dips
  • Vertigo
  • Fatigue
  • Joint discomfort
  • Headaches
  • Pounding heart
  • Crawling skin sensation
  • Vaginal dryness
Adaptogens & Your Hormones

Daily Hormone Essentials also contains two adaptogens: ashwagandha and maca root. Adaptogens are plants that support your body’s ability to respond to everyday stress in a healthy way. They work by supporting balanced levels of cortisol, your main stress hormone.

Here’s why that matters: When you’re stressed, your body turns on the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis (your fight-or- flight system). That’s helpful short term, but if stress sticks around, this system stays on and keeps pumping out cortisol. Too much cortisol can throw off your reproductive axis and lead to potential suppression of your gonadotropin-releasing hormone (necessary for balancing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone), which in turn lowers the production of the luteinizing hormone you need to ovulate and have a menstrual cycle.

Chronic stress doesn’t just mess with your hormones though; it can also lower your sex drive. And when that happens, you can end up feeling even more stressed! That’s why adaptogens like ashwagandha are so beneficial. They support balanced cortisol levels, thereby also helping maintain healthy hormone balance and maybe even helping you feel more in the mood.

In fact, a 2015 study showed that the same form of ashwagandha we use in Daily Hormone Essentials and our PowerGize herbal supplement supports healthy sexual function. If you take both of these products daily as directed, you will reach the daily dosage of ashwagandha that was used in this promising study.

With Daily Hormone Essentials, you get support for balanced hormones and cortisol, healthy energy levels, and libido - all in one easy drink!

How To Use Daily Hormone Essentials

Take 1 sachet in the morning with food. Squeeze straight from the sachet or stir into warm water for fast-absorbing hormone support, anytime, anywhere.

Power of your Purchase - a note directly from Young Living

Your choice helps bring balance to yourself and the earth, while empowering girls in Ecuador.

Daily Hormone Essentials contains Ylang Ylang from our farm in Ecuador, where we’re helping young girls get a quality education at the Young Living Academy. Many of our students become the first in their families to graduate from high school, unlocking opportunities for themselves and their communities. We’re also working to restore endangered orchids on this farm.

The Lavender and Clary Sage in this plant-based hormone supplement come from farms in France and Utah, where we use pollinator-friendly practices, intercropping, and even sheep for weeding to protect soil health and biodiversity. And DeepSpectra Frankincense2 extract is made from upcycled plant material to reduce waste. 

We’re continuing to do our part by designing our sachets with sustainability in mind. Using less plastic helps reduce product waste compared to bulky tubs or bottles.

Background

Lavender and vanilla have long been cherished for their soothing and relaxing properties, both in traditional and modern wellness practices. Lavender oil has been used for centuries in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome for its calming fragrance and healing qualities. It was often incorporated into baths, perfumes, and even medical treatments to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety.

Similarly, vanilla carries a warm, sweet aroma that is deeply comforting and emotionally grounding. Though its use became widespread after the 16th century with the rise of global trade, vanilla was considered a sacred and luxurious substance by the Totonac and Aztec civilizations of Mesoamerica. Together, these oils are widely used in aromatherapy today, valued for their natural ability to ease stress, improve sleep quality, and create a sense of calm and emotional balance.

 Key Ingredients

  • Lavender essential oil - Lavender oil, rich in linalool and linalyl acetate, is cherished for its gentle yet powerful calming effects. Widely used to ease stress, support restful sleep, and soothe irritated skin, it blends therapeutic function with a clean, floral aroma. It is a wonderful  and elegant tool for both emotional and physical balance.
  • Vanilla - Vanilla offers a warm, comforting scent that evokes a sense of calm and emotional well-being. Though technically an oleoresin or absolute rather than a true essential oil, it is highly valued in aromatherapy for its ability to ease tension and uplift the spirit. Its antioxidant and soothing properties also make it a luxurious addition to skincare and natural fragrance blends.

In fact, it has been studied for its properties to lower cortisol (stress hormone) and to lower the body's sympathetic nervous response (fight/flight/freeze), making this a wonderful oil for emotional support!
  • Vanilla - Vanilla is such a warm, inviting and happy oil. It has a luxuriously rich, slightly sweet scent that enhances the experience of virtually every other essential oil, both when used topically or aromatically! Vanilla lifts the spirits and helps with stress relief and calming the mind. It also has powerful antioxidant properties that support the immune system and body's natural response to stress and inflammation.
  • When used together these ingredients are a powerful emotional tool, especially during a season where we may be busier or have more on our plates than normal!

Diffuse it in place of candles to create a snug atmosphere or mix it with water and witch hazel for a room spray free of synthetic chemicals.

Background

Spice oils like cinnamon, clove, ginger, and cardamom have been treasured for centuries, not only for their bold, aromatic flavors but also for their rich histories and therapeutic properties. Originating from ancient trade routes that connected East and West, these oils were once as valuable as gold, fueling exploration and global commerce.
  • Cinnamon oil, derived from the bark of Cinnamomum trees, was used in ancient Egypt for embalming and in religious rituals. 
  • Clove oil, native to the Spice Islands, was highly prized in medieval Europe for its ability to preserve food and ease dental pain.
  • Ginger oil, extracted from the rhizome of the Zingiber plant, has roots in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, valued for its warming and digestive properties.
  • Cardamom oil, known as the "queen of spices," was used in ancient India and the Middle East for both culinary and medicinal purposes. Today, these spice oils continue to be celebrated for their potent scents, culinary versatility, and natural wellness benefits.
  • Vanilla carries a warm, sweet aroma that is deeply comforting and emotionally grounding. Though its use became widespread after the 16th century with the rise of global trade, vanilla was considered a sacred and luxurious substance by the Totonac and Aztec civilizations of Mesoamerica. 
  • Together, these oils are widely used in aromatherapy today, valued for their natural ability to ease stress, improve sleep quality, and create a sense of calm and emotional balance.
Key Ingredients

  • Clove essential oil - The highest valued antioxidant known, clove is rich in eugenol and prized for its powerful analgesic, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory qualities. Traditionally used to soothe toothaches and oral discomfort, it remains a go-to for immune support and relieving muscular tension.
  • Cinnamon bark essential oil - High in cinnamaldehyde and eugenol, cinnamon is revered for its warming, invigorating aroma and potent antimicrobial and circulatory-stimulating properties. Long cherished in traditional medicine, it supports immune health, eases digestive discomfort, and adds a comforting depth to aromatherapy blends.
  • Cardamom essential oil - Abundant in 1,8-cineole and terpinyl acetate, Cardamom is known for its gentle, uplifting scent and its ability to ease respiratory congestion and digestive upset. With its sweet, spicy notes and calming effect on the nervous system, cardamom is a favorite in blends that promote clarity and emotional balance.
  • Vanilla - Vanilla offers a warm, comforting scent that evokes a sense of calm and emotional well-being. Though technically an oleoresin or absolute rather than a true essential oil, it is highly valued in aromatherapy for its ability to ease tension and uplift the spirit. Its antioxidant and soothing properties also make it a luxurious addition to skincare and natural fragrance blends.

If You're Feeling Diffuser Blends - July 2025

If You're Feeling...
Summer Vacation Diffuser Blends

Summer is a season of movement - of memories in the making, sun-warmed days, and spontaneous joy. Whether you're packing for a road trip, lounging by the lake, or just dreaming of your next getaway, emotions can run the full spectrum: excitement, freedom, gratitude, boldness, and more.

This collection of diffuser blends is designed to match your mood with the perfect essential oils—so no matter how you're feeling this summer, your space can reflect it. Breathe in, slow down (or rev up!), and let these blends bring your summer story to life.

Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell happy and inviting all at the same time. 


If You're Feeling... Adventurous - Diffuse: Abundance

For hiking, exploring, or following your curiosity.



If You're Feeling... Playful - Diffuse: Tangerine

Lighthearted and fun - like summer carnivals and carefree laughter.


If You're Feeling... Energized - Diffuse: Motivation

For when your excitement bubbles over - perfect before beach games, packing, or day trips.


If You're Feeling... Bold - Diffuse: Highest Potential

When you're ready to shine, take risks, or say yes to something big.


If You're Feeling... Free - Diffuse: Lime

Inspired by open skies, ocean drives, and wind-in-your-hair moments.


If You're Feeling... Grateful - Diffuse: Present Time

For soaking up the beauty of the now - sunsets, family dinners, or quiet mornings.

Whether you're looking to boost confidence, deepen your sense of love, or maintain calmness amidst the excitement, these specially selected oils provide a harmonious accompaniment to your once-in-a-lifetime celebration. Embrace each moment with the perfect scent to match your emotions, ensuring your wedding day is both memorable and magical.

LIFE HACK - You can easily transform these blends into roller recipes and sprays!

To make a 10 mL roller from any recipe - triple the number of drops to make a total of 35-45 total drops, add a carrier of choice (we love V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex) and you're good to go.

To make a 2 oz spray from any recipe - double the number of drops to a total of about 25 drops, ad a splash of witch hazel and fill with filtered water. Spray on upholstered surfaces, bedding, rugs, anywhere you want to freshen!

To make an epsom salt bath mix - add desired amount of oils (we generally use about 10 drops) to 1 cup of epsom salts, then place under warm running water. Note: we generally avoid 'hot' oils (like Cypress, Oregano, and Lemongrass) in bath recipes. Use your own judgement, or stick to the more soothing and relaxing blends.

To make a 2 oz massage oil from any recipe - double the number of drops (or use your desired amount depending on the essential oils used) to a pump-top bottle, then add V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex or other carrier oil to top off the bottle. Invert to mix, then used as desired.

Happy diffusing!!

Whole Body Cleanse Spotlight - June 2025

Whole Body Cleanse Spotlight

Toxins don’t take a day off. Help your body flush them out daily with a blend of powerful antioxidants and fiber-bound polyphenols for natural detoxification, gut health, and regularity support. It’s our old friend ICP, but better (and tastier!) than ever before with Whole Body Cleanse!

Whole Body at a Glance

  • Gentle intestinal cleanse with herbs essential oils
  • Improves nutrient absorption and decreases the buildup of waste
  • Provides both soluble and insoluble fiber, which are essential for healthy digestion
  • Enhanced with a special blend of essential oils
  • Lightly flavored with natural pineapple and pairs perfectly with NingXia Red!
Whole Body Cleanse powder brings the latest science and most effective plant-based ingredients to your daily cleansing routine. Infused with premium essential oils and multiple fiber sources to nourish different gut bacteria, it supports a healthy gut and your body’s detoxifying, elimination and cleansing process - all in one gentle, daily formula. Just mix with water, sip, and let your body do the rest.

Background

Detox starts in the liver, but your gut and kidneys also play an important role. That’s why Whole Body Cleanse is designed to support overall gut health and promote gentle, daily detox in the gut-liver and gut-kidney axis. 

Unlike typical detox products that focus solely on the liver, Whole Body Cleanse supports the critical third phase of detoxification - elimination. While the liver processes toxins in Phases I and II (see our LiverToneTM Supplement Spotlight), Whole Body Cleanse ensures these toxins exit the body via stool and urine. 

Without this final phase, toxins can be reabsorbed, leading to inflammation, sluggish digestion, and a burdened detox system. This formula helps keep things moving, protect essential mineral balance, and maintain a healthy detox rhythm - day in and day out.

Key Ingredients

Packed with organic baobab fruit fiber, prickly pear juice powder, and kombucha-fermented green tea, Whole Body Cleanse promotes regularity, supports reduced water retention, and nourishes a healthy gut microbiome. Combined with antioxidant-rich ingredients and fiber-bound polyphenols, it helps maintain optimal gut function and overall metabolic health.

  • Polyphenol fiber mix - Delivers soluble and insoluble fibers from apples, carrots,  blueberries, cranberries, and spinach to nourish a diverse gut microbiome; Promotes regularity with insoluble fiber; Acts as a prebiotic to support optimal gut health with soluble fiber and polyphenols; Supports healthy blood sugar levels.
  • Prickly pear extract - Helps reduce water retention while preserving essential minerals.
  • Baobab fruit and green tea kombucha - Provide prebiotic fiber to support gut health; Remain gentler on the GI tract than commonly used selenium
  • Ginger, Anise, and Fennel essential oils - Support overall digestive health as well as soothe and comfort digestive discomfort.
  • Hint of natural pineapple flavor - Provides a light, refreshing taste that mixes easily with water or pairs well with NingXia Red drinks, Daily Prebiotic Fiber powder, Inner Beauty Collagen, or other Young Living products.
Your gut impacts your overall wellness - from digestion and nutrient absorption to immune defense and detoxification. By addressing the gut-liver axis and supporting daily digestion, Whole Body Cleanse supports healthy cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, appetite regulation, and a trimmer waistline when paired with hydration and a healthy lifestyle. Gentle enough for daily use, vegan, and non-GMO, this formula is ideal for those seeking to feel lighter, brighter, and supported from the inside out. It’s notjust a cleanse - it’s part of your daily ritual for full-body wellness.

How To Use Whole Body Cleanse Powder

Take 1 scoop daily with water, NingXia Red drink, or your beverage of choice.
  • Pair with our LiverTone supplement for the daily detox duo your body needs to stay clean.
  • Mix with Daily Prebiotic Fiber powder for more intense cleansing support.
Whole Body Cleanse FAQs

Q. What makes Whole Body Cleanse better than other products on the market?
A. Whole Body Cleanse goes beyond basic cleansing supplements. It combines antioxidant-rich soluble and insoluble fibers, such as baobab fruit powder and a polyphenol fiber mix from apples, carrots, blueberries, cranberries, and spinach. It also features prickly pear (Opuntia ficus indica) juice powder, which helps reduce fluid retention and serves as an antioxidant. Green tea kombucha powder provides polyphenols and catechins that promote lipid metabolism. With this powerhouse mix of antioxidants and polyphenols, Whole Body Cleanse supports gut health, regularity, and natural toxin elimination - while being gentle enough for daily use. 

Q. Is this replacing a current or retired product? Why was the product reformulated?
A. Whole Body Cleanse is a reformulation of our JuvaPower supplement. It features a broader range of fiber sources and the latest, most effective ingredients for daily detox and healthy bowel movements. It also helps reduce water retention while preserving essential minerals. 

Q. Can children use Whole Body Cleanse?
A. Whole Body Cleanse should not be given to children under the age of 4. For ages 5–12, we suggest consulting a health care professional to ensure your children’s individual dietary and health needs are met.

LiverTone Spotlight - June 2025

These vegan, non-GMO capsules support liver detox, promote healthy metabolism, and protect liver cells to keep you thriving. Liver Tone is basically like a daily trip to the gym - for your liver!

  • Advanced phytonutrient supplement that supports daily detoxification and antioxidant protection
  • Supports vascular protection, assists in cholesterol and glucose metabolism, and promotes cellular vitality
  • Vegan and vegetarian-friendly formula containing NAC, broccoli seed, artichoke leaf, milk thistle, and more

You can’t dodge every toxin, but you can support your body’s detox powerhouse - your liver. LiverTone is a plant-powered, clinically studied supplement designed to keep your hardest-working organ healthy and functioning properly.

With broccoli seed for detox, artichoke leaf for bile flow, and milk thistle for protective antioxidants, it’s your daily dose of liver-loving support. Supporting the liver is essential for health and vitality, and Liver Tone is a great choice for doing that!

Background

Your liver is a multitasking machine with over 500 essential functions, making it one of the most vital and overworked organs in your body. From producing bile and balancing blood sugar to processing toxins and regulating hormones, it plays a central role in maintaining overall wellness.

But modern life - filled with environmental pollutants, dietary stressors, and synthetic hormones - puts extra pressure on this critical organ. As toxins build up from the diet, environmental exposure, illness, and more, the liver becomes sluggish and stressed. When this happens, everything from eczema to digestive upset, irritability, and brain fog can occur*. That’s where LiverTone comes in, supporting your liver’s natural detox process, helping manage oxidative stress, and promoting healthy metabolic and hormonal balance.

*Adapted from the Supplement Field Guide by Dr. Ashley H. Cribb

This multi-layered formula aids in Phase I (activation) and II (conjugation) of the detox processes, supports vascular protection, assists in cholesterol and glucose metabolism, and promotes cellular vitality, all while preparing your body for Phase III detox (elimination), supported by the companion product, Whole Body Cleanse (Supplement Spotlight) powder.

  • Artichoke (Cynara cardunculus) leaf extract - A clinically studied ingredient for liver detoxification that promotes healthy insulin metabolism and bile production for breaking down fat-soluble vitamins
  • Red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor) leaf extract - Supports healthy circulation and oxygen delivery with four times more nitrates than beetroot extract (yep, really!); Rich in antioxidants; promotes optimal blood flow, promotes toxin elimination, and reduces oxidative stress
  • Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) seed extract - Supports healthy liver function and protects liver cells from oxidative stress with silymarin, a powerhouse antioxidant
  • Broccoli (Brassica oleracea italica) seed extract - Works like a deep clean for your system, helping to flush out heavy metals and other unwanted substances
  • N-acetyl cysteine - A key nutrient your body uses to make glutathione, your master antioxidant
  • Citrus fresh essential oil blend - High in limonene, an antioxidant that helps repair and prevent free radical damage and soothes and cleanses the liver and promotes detox enzyme activity
  • German chamomile essential oil - A powerful antioxidant that supports healthy cholesterol levels, the liver, gallbladder and the body’s response to inflammation and injury
  • Helichrysum and clove extracts - Your antioxidant allies that help maintain detox pathways so your liver can do its thing.

LiverTone FAQs

Q. Is LiverTone replacing JuvaTone tablets?
A. Yes, LiverTone is replacing JuvaTone. It’s been developed with updated, science-based ingredients to provide the most effective support for a healthy liver. 

Q. Why was JuvaTone reformulated and renamed LiverTone?
A. JuvaTone was reformulated to include modern, clinically supported ingredients that enhance its potency and effectiveness. Additionally, the new name, LiverTone, helps clearly communicate the product’s purpose and benefits, making it more user-friendly. 

Q. What makes LiverTone better than other products on the market?

Tea Tree Spotlight - June 2025

Tea Tree Spotlight

There’s something magical about opening a bottle of Tea Tree essential oil. That crisp, camphoraceous aroma? It smells like clean. Like clarity. Like nature’s version of hitting the reset button.

Beloved for its versatility and revered for its purifying powers, Tea Tree is the little bottle you didn’t know you needed - until now.

Tea Tree at a Glance

  • Naturally purifying and cleansing to the home and body
  • Great for blemish-prone skin and oily scalps
  • Fresh, medicinal scent that clears the mind and supports the airways
  • Great to use in DIY cleaners, skincare routines, and first aid kitsHas antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties
  • A must-have for travel or gym bags
Tea Tree essential oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) is like your reliable best friend - always there when you need a quick fix, especially for skin woes or musty smells. It’s the kind of oil that earns its place in every cabinet: whether it's helping with breakouts, soothing a scratchy scalp, or keeping your yoga mat fresh. Known for its strong antimicrobial powers, it’s our go-to for anything that needs a natural clean - from your face to your feet, and even your countertops.

Background

Tea Tree oil comes from the leaves of the Melaleuca tree, native to Australia. People have used this oil for centuries - crushing the leaves to treat wounds, colds, and infections. It wasn't until the 1920s that the rest of the world caught on, thanks to chemist Arthur Penfold’s research that revealed its remarkable antiseptic properties. Since then, Tea Tree has become a natural wellness staple, praised in both aromatherapy and conventional health circles.

Tea Tree & Skincare

If your skin could talk, it might just ask for Tea Tree. Known for its clarifying and soothing properties, this oil is especially beloved by those with oily or blemish-prone skin. A drop in your facial cleanser or toner can help combat acne-causing bacteria, while its anti-inflammatory properties may calm redness and irritation.

Tea Tree also works wonders on the scalp. Add a few drops to your shampoo to fight dandruff and buildup, or massage it into your scalp with a carrier oil for a deep treatment. For feet? It’s fantastic at keeping things fresh, especially in hot months or gym shoes.

Tea Tree & Emotions

Tea Tree might be best known for its physical benefits, but don’t overlook its emotional side. While it doesn’t smell traditionally “floral” or “relaxing,” this bold, herbaceous oil brings a refreshing clarity that can help sweep away mental fog and emotional clutter.

Energetically, Tea Tree is considered a cleansing oil - not just for the body, but for the mind and spirit too. It’s often used in aromatherapy to support emotional boundaries, making it a powerful ally when you're feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or weighed down by other people’s energy. Diffusing it during journaling or after a tense conversation can feel like opening a window in a stuffy room - clearing the air, literally and figuratively.

Emotionally, Tea Tree offers strength, resilience, and energetic protection. It can help restore a sense of personal space, especially when you're navigating stress, conflict, or emotional burnout.

Try this calming ritual:
Add 2–3 drops of Tea Tree to a diffuser with Lavender and Frankincense. Breathe deeply, visualize negativity clearing away, and set an intention for grounded strength.

Key Ingredients

  • Terpinen-4-ol - Main active compound, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory
  • Gamma-Terpinene - Supports immune response and has antioxidant effects
  • Alpha-Terpinene - Contributes to antimicrobial activity
  • 1,8-Cineole - Offers respiratory benefits (in low amounts in Tea Tree)
Daily Habits with Tea Tree

Beach Destinations Diffuser Blends - June 2025

Beach Destinations Diffuser Blends

Recreate the inviting and beloved aromas of Bath and Body Works in your home with these thoughtfully crafted diffuser blends. 

Using Young Living essential oils, each blend captures the essence of the most iconic Bath and Body Works fragrances, allowing you to enjoy these popular scents in a natural, customizable way. Here are six diffuser blends inspired by some of the most cherished Bath and Body Works scents.

Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell happy and inviting all at the same time. 

LIFE HACK - You can easily transform these blends into roller recipes and sprays!

To make a 10 mL roller from any recipe - triple the number of drops to make a total of 35-45 total drops, add a carrier of choice (we love V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex) and you're good to go.

To make a 2 oz spray from any recipe - double the number of drops to a total of about 25 drops, ad a splash of witch hazel and fill with filtered water. Spray on upholstered surfaces, bedding, rugs, anywhere you want to freshen!

To make an epsom salt bath mix - add desired amount of oils (we generally use about 10 drops) to 1 cup of epsom salts, then place under warm running water. Note: we generally avoid 'hot' oils (like Cypress, Oregano, and Lemongrass) in bath recipes. Use your own judgement, or stick to the more soothing and relaxing blends.

To make a 2 oz massage oil from any recipe - double the number of drops (or use your desired amount depending on the essential oils used) to a pump-top bottle, then add V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex or other carrier oil to top off the bottle. Invert to mix, then used as desired.

Happy diffusing!!

Hello! I'm Jennifer Meckel

 

I am very passionate about helping you achieve the best YOU that you can be!


A little about myself. I live in the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. I am married to a wonderful and supportive man named Sean since 2003 - all wonderful years. We have two smart and sassy daughters, Emmy is 10 and in 4th grade in the Mandarin Immersion program and Lilly is 6 and in kindergarten. I like to paper craft and make my own cards, I like to sew (though don’t have much time for that lately) and I just returned to belly dancing now that Lilly is getting bigger.


I’ve been using essential oils and infused products for since October 2015 and absolutely love this lifestyle and how it makes me and my family feel. I started my oily journey after sitting next to another mom at a play date.  We started talking about my infertility issues, and she suggested I try Young Living’s essential oils to support my hormones.  After a year of intentionally exercising, eating better, and using oils to support my hormones and emotions, I became pregnant with Lilly, right before my first time attending the International YL Convention in Salt Lake City in 2016. There is so much more to tell about this story, and I’m open and willing to share with you, if you are interested.


So, tell me more about yourself!  Tell me about the season of life you are in now. Tell me about your family. 


In health, wellness, and abundance!
