The Truth About Oils

Caring For Essential Oils

• Store out of sunlight • Always keep in a blue or amber

colored bottle.• Keep lid on so oil doesn’t evaporate

and oxidize• Do not leave oils in the car during

the Summer.

“If you can’t eat it, don’t wear it.”

– Gary Young

Common MisconceptionsConcerns arise on the proper usage of

essential oils based upon the quality of oil used and the school of thought

being taught.

Three Ways to Enjoy Essential Oils

1.Internally – in a liquid or a vegetable capsule

2.Rub topically on location, with or without a carrier oil

3.Breathe through the nose and through diffusing into the air

Neat vs. Diluted

• Nearly every Young Living oil can be used neat because it is 100% pure. This means you can apply oil to your skin straight out of the bottle.

• Diluted means that the essential oil is mixed with a carrier oil – a fatty vegetable oil such as Almond Oil, coconut oil, olive oil, or V-6.

Why Dilute?

• With therapeutic essential oils less is more.

• Cheaper• Works like a time release capsule• Greater surface area is affected

Diluting Cools

Some essential oils are “hot.”

To cool an essential oil add a fatty

vegetable oil. Never water, because oil and water don’t

mix.

How Do You Dilute?

water. Essential oils are detoxifying, even when only
