Here is why I personally use and LOVE Young Living:

 

+ Young Living owns their farms in order to grow their own plants all over the world. Anyone can actually visit their farms – they are the only company who allows anyone to come in and observe and learn the process! Many other oil companies do not own their farms; they buy from farmers and/or utilize oils made synthetically in labs. Not owning their farms means that they are not in control of how the plant is grown and harvested – two MAJORLY important steps in the process!

 

+ Young Living distills 100% of their own oils. That means that YL can stand by their quality from beginning to end. They have complete quality control in their oils.

 

+ Young Living is the only company that has what is called the “Seed to Seal Promise”. This has such a huge, huge impact! It means that YL controls every single aspect of their production line. They own their farms. They plant their seeds. They cultivate their own crops. They use essential oils on their plants. They oversee everything, literally, from planting the seed to sealing the bottle. They can say with 100% guarantee that they know what is inside of each and every bottle, and they are pure beyond the shadow of a doubt. They don’t compromise quality just to get a product out there. If it’s not perfect or up to par, they don’t bottle it. It can’t get more comforting than that! Especially if you’re like me, and wanting to keep your house as toxin free as possible!

 

+ YL has been around for over 25 years. They know what works, what doesn’t, and their product quality SHOWS that.

 

+ Before buying land for a farm, they make sure it has been pesticide free for 50+ years. Before planting seeds, they spend 5 years prepping the soil so that it is the best environment to grow aromatic plants. No pesticides are used on their plants, ever. Instead… they use oils!

 

+ YL uses mountain spring water to water their crops whenever possible. Their Mona, Utah farm uses spring water from the Wasatch Mountains.

 

+ After the plants are harvested, they distill them. They only use the first round of distillation to sell to customers, because that is the round with the highest medicinal properties. Other brands will use second and third rounds which will not be as pure and effective.

 

+ YL oils go through third party testing! They are tested by Young Living AND a third party… and then they only sell the oils that 100% meet their standards!

These are the biggest reasons I chose Young Living. If I am going to be consistently using these products on my skin and the skin of my loved ones, I want to know exactly what I am getting. The transparency of YL as a company is unmatched! If you have more questions about YL, ask away!
