July 2014 Essential Rewards

      I love getting my ER order every month, its like Christmas.

First Up Ningxia Red:

If your not aware of Young Living's Ningxia Red , its wonderful. I drink 1 oz AM after my water and 1oz in the PM when I need a pick me up. I keep mine in the fridge because I like everything chilled but you don't have to.

Next is Thieves Household Cleaner: 

I'm planning on making some household cleaners and this is easier for me then using my bottle of Young Living Thieves Essential Oil .

USB Diffuser in Pink:

We are planning some trips and I wanted to be able to diffuse my oils. You are also able to use this in your vehicle

AromaEase :
 
Remember that trip I just mentioned, its to a Amusement park and I get motion sickness very easily. Young Living Essential Oil AromaEase was just released and it is to help with motion sickness and nausea. This will definitely be going with us.

Progessence Plus: 

Is a Harmonizing serum designed for women. It contains Frankincense,Bergamont, and peppermint oils along with some Wild Yam and Vit E. I'm 41 years old and I'm hoping this helps with my hormones : )

Sage: 

Young Living Essential Oil Sage   is normally used in skin care,oral hygiene and women's natural cycles. It is also known to reduce sweating so I am using it in my Homemade Deodorant .

And because I spent over 190PV this month I received 2 free oils:

Ylang Ylang: 

Ylang Ylang is used to relax the mind and help control feelings of negativity and anger.....and it smells great. 

Bergamot: 

Bergamot's light citrusy scent is perfect for using in products your making for the men in your life. It also uplifts the mood and builds confidence. I'm using it on a dark spot on my face, I'll let you know how that goes. 

Please remember I'm not a doctor and I just do what's best for me and my family.

Sun Burn (uh oh's )

      5 year old has soccer camp this week during the morning and with the rushing out the door ( because we are running late as usual ) I forgot sunscreen.
Ouch

     Poor little bug got a sun burn.


     After coming home I mixed up coconut oil and Young Living Carrot Seed Oil in a spray bottle and put it in my car......No more Mommy Brain. Young Living Carrot Seed Oil has a SPF between 38-40 and Coconut oil has a SPF of 2-8. I also added some Young Living Purification to cover the smell of the Carrot Seed oil. Adding the Young Living Purification Oil also helps it repel bugs.

    Please Remember I'm not a doctor and this is what I do for me and my Family. Curious about Young Living Essential Oils ? Feel free to comment or connect with me on my Facebook or Twitter pages.

New Goodies

Boo......My Young Living Essential Rewards did not come today but.....I did get one delivery. I got Veggie Caps because I have trouble drinking my Young Living Grapefruit Essential Oil and I'm trying to lose some weight so that's kinda important.

I got my Vegetable Glycerin so I can make some Homemade Body wash   and Homemade Toner. 

Redmond Bentonite  Clay I got to hopefully Detox and to make facial masks .

Just a reminder i am not a doctor and I just do what is best for me and my family.

Peace and Love,

Disney Red Rash AKA Golfer’s Vasculitis

      We went to Disney in May and low and behold I got the "Red Rash" again all over my ankles. I have always attributed it to the endless walking you do in the heat at Disney. When we returned this time I decided to Google the term Disney red leg rash and came up with tons of sites.....we should have our own club...LOL. 

     It seems the "rash" is actually a form of sun burn caused by the sun reflecting off the black asphalt. People who wear socks or long pants or have sun screened their legs up don't suffer as much. One image and another image of what it looks like ...of course mine is worse. We are headed to Universal Studios near the end of the month so with my love of everything Young Living Essential Oils I'm hoping to avoid it ( if not I'll get a good picture for the blog ).

    First I'm going to use Sherri's Bug Repellant/Sun Screen ( I make the spray one ) and if I do happen to get the rash I hope to stop it dead in its tracks with some Healing Young Living Essential Oil's Lavender.

    Remember I'm not a doctor, I just do whats best for me and my family and hope it helps you along the way.

Peace and Love,

Kim

Keratosis Pilaris AKA Chicken Skin

      Ah Yes, the dreaded chicken skin ....if you are lucky enough to not have it you know someone who does. My lovely KP has been with been as long as I can remember ....... my upper arms and thighs. I did everything and anything to get rid of it ...exfoliated, acids, lotions, scrubs, etc....nothing worked. Lately to keep it under control I have been using this.......
at a cost of $47.00. This container would usually last about 2 months and it was ok but did not completely get rid of the Chicken Skin. I was thrilled to see Sherri get asked about Keratosis Pilaris on her Facebook page  and she sent us to Stuff Parents Need .....Awesome.

     I did not follow the recipe exactly....I just eyeballed everything. I like mine a little more "drier" so I use more sugar and less coconut oil. I also used Young Living Stress Away instead of Lavender. Young Living Stress Away has Copaiba, Lime, Cedarwood, Vanilla, Ocotea, Lavender and Fractionated (Virgin ) coconut oil in it.......it smells like summer should smell like. I use this scrub all over my skin in the shower and absolutely love the way it makes my skin feel. Not only can you see the Keratosis Pilaris is almost gone but you can feel how smooth your skin is. Young Living Stress Away is the one oil featured in all Young Living Starter Kits. If your interested in finding out about  Young Living Stress Away and all Young Living Essential oils please let me know.

    Please remember I am not a doctor and all information given is just what works for me and my family.

Peace and Love,

Kim
