Young Living Essential Oils Philippines

Our family try our best to live a healthy life. One of the best ways we do this is by using essential oils in our day-to-day living. Being a member of Young Living, it has been a great journey so far.

We welcomed the opening of Young Living Philippines on 2019 with open hands and with great joy.

Being at the forefront of producing high-grade and pure essential oils, Young Living will always be a part of our daily rituals to be healthier.

What is Young Living Essential Oils all about?

World Leader in the Industry
Young Living’s humble beginnings started when its founder, D. Gary Young, first planted a few lavender seeds in a small patch of land in Washington. Fueled by his passion to develop natural wellness products, he developed a simple, homemade essential oil distillery to process his lavender harvests. The result is the first pure batch of Young Living essential oil and as they say, the rest is history. Twenty-five years on, Young Living now consistently upholds its mission of being a steward to nature’s living energy – distilling nature’s greatest gifts into high-quality essential oils for the benefit of the world, making it the world leader in the industry.

Seed to Seal

But this great feat wouldn’t have been possible without the rigorous standards and sourcing discipline that Young Living has lived by for 25 years. It sets the industry standards for quality and purity with its proprietary Seed to Seal commitment, which consists of 3 pillars – Sourcing, Science and Standards.

Sourcing

Kick-Start Learning Experience with Licealiz

One of the most anticipated events in a child’s life is going back to school. Though it is time to say goodbye to summer fun, play dates and relaxed days, there is no need to say adios to clean and lice-free hair. It could be challenging but moms can maintain their children’s good hair hygiene even if they spend the whole day in school.

Here’s how:  Lamoiyan Corporation’s Licealiz Head Lice Treatment Shampoo. Licealiz is an affordable, non-toxic formula that is clinically-proven to kill lice and nits.

One of the reasons why some children have a hard time in school or has few friends who will play with them is because these children have head lice. It also makes the child conscious. With Licealiz, these children can be lice-free and would be able to use their full potential in learning in school as well as making the most of their time with their socialization with their friends.

Recently, moms and their daughters, through the Kick-starting the Learning Experience workshop were given a chance to bond while learning tips on how to keep their daughters’ hair well-maintained.

Lectures on basic hair care, ways to prevent hair lice infestation and preparation for the current school year to ensure the child’s health remain uncompromised by threats such as pediculosis or head lice were discussed.

Fashionable hairstyles were also taught through a hairstyle tutorial for easy-to-do and preppy look for the school were also done. My daughter’s hairstyle, which I braided and used colored rubber bands wrapped on hairpins and inserted in various areas of the hair to make it look colorful and unique. We were one of the winner, by the way, yey!

CarbTrim and Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar

One of the best ways to drink a teaspoon or a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar is to mix this with your regular drink of juice or water. In fact, one of the instructions to having this regularly is to drink a glass of warm water with a T of Apple Cider Vinegar. You can add honey to make the mix sweeter and easier to drink.

This is my way of having a tablespoon or sometimes more, of Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar: mix with CarbTrim and add a slice of lemon or navel orange. TIP: slice a lemon or navel orange and put these in the freezer so you do not need to slice every time you need to make these drinks.

CarbTrim is a carb-blocking product in a refreshing iced tea drink.  It contains Phase 2 white kidney bean, a natural extract clinically-proven to block up to 66% of carbs you eat. ~source

Two of the many benefits of Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar are the following: (Source)

  • Helps control weight
  • Promotes digestion & ph Balance

Now these two would be great together in losing the weight. We need to remember though to moderate food intake and take one or two kinds of exercise to help lose the unwanted pounds.

By the way, I won TEN BOXES of CarbTrim through this photo, so go follow CarbTrim on Twitter and who knows, you might also win boxes of CarbTrim like me 😀

Here are the boxes.

Homemade Body Scrub

My first time to make homemade body scrub or DIY body scrub.

Here was what I did:

Body Scrub

 

Ingredients:

Just mix together and voila! (I deliberately added the brown sugar, that light brown part, to show how it looks like)

How to use the DIY body scrub: You can use this before bathing but be sure to wet the body parts you want to use the homemade body scrub with. Gently use the scrub on your elbows, foot and even face. Wash or rinse with your usual soap or facial/body wash.

Skin will be supple and soft after you rinse the homemade body scrub off. Wash the bathroom floor just in case there is oil residue that might cause slips to the next user.

Easy peasy. If you want to use coconut oil, you can do so. You can also opt to remove the sugar.

You can also use an electronic ph meter if you want, no one is stopping you 😀

Swish Breath Spray

I was supposed to write a review about Swish Breath Spray but I totally forgot about it. How did I remember? The small bottle in my bag has maxed out the sprays it can give, lol!

Here is a photo I took when I got the Swish Breath Spray products (along with Swish Mouthwash) for review:

IMG_20120508_080740-1

Let me write down why I like this product, Swish Breath Spray:

  • alcohol-free
  • kills germs and bacteria-causing bad breath
  • convenient to bring anywhere because it is small
  • can last till 100 sprays
  • retails at around Php105 – 110 ( That’s about one peso for every spray)

Here is my Swish Breath Spray along with some Kikay essentials in my bag:

Kikay kit

Swish Breath Spray, like the Swish Mouthwash have Arctic Chill and Peppermint Fresh flavor variants.

I used to have these mint candies in my bag that I pop in my mouth when I feel the need to freshen my breath but I think these contributed to my having toothaches before because these are not exactly sugar-free.

Swish Breath Spray and Swish Mouthwash are available in supermarkets, drug stores and convenience stores nationwide.
