Whipped Body Butter

Whipped Body Butter
1 cup organic raw Shea butter (solid)
½ cup organic coconut oil (solid)
½ cup sunflower or almond oil (liquid)


Melt Shea butter and coconut oil in top of a double boiler. Remove from heat and cool for 30 minutes.
Stir in sunflower or almond oil and essential oils* of your choice. (Can go for physical challenges, emotional challenges or just what scents you like.)
Place oil mixture in a freezer to chill. (Important step.)
Wait until oils start to partially solidify then whip until a butter-like consistency.
Place in a clean, glass jar and enjoy.
*not all essential oils are created the same. We only use Young Living oils. Make sure and research for oils that are great for application to skin.
Tip: You can substitute a portion of the Shea butter with grated bees wax if you want to make lotion dots. We either put in little mini molds or use a cake icing bag with tip to squeeze little stars or hearts, etc out on wax paper to set up and then bag up to give as gifts or individual samples.

Mold infection on scalp and face
Author: Kimball Roanoke, VA, United States

As a cabinet maker I would size wood that was wet and covered with slime mold and other types of mold. I also finished the completed cabinets with paint and stains. I was getting sicker more often and for longer durations. I had to escape that environment.

I went back to school to become a massage therapist and soon my health improved. I was introduced to Young Living Essential Oils and my health improved more.
It was my face that would not clear up from adult acne and eczema patches.
I decided to detox my face skin and scalp.

I wash my face with backing soda to alkaline my skin's pH. I then mix 4 to 5 drops Purification essential oil blend with Genesis Hand and Body Lotion and apply to my face. (Be careful not to get any in your eyes.) I put 4 to 5 drops in my Rosewood Shampoo when washing my hair. The mold is out of my hair. My face skin got worse for one week while the old poisons were coming out of my skin.

It has been four weeks now and my acne is gone and the eczema is getting fainter. I also drink 1 oz of NingXia Red each day.

Trapped blackhead is gone now
Author: Betty Cleveland Heights, OH, United States

I had an embedded blackhead on my face since my teens, approximately 40 years. After using Young Living's A.R.T. Skin Care System for 3 months it came out and cleared up.

Rosacea outbreaks have disappeared
Author: Suesue Newnan, GA, United States
Skills: Esthetician

I researched causes of Rosacea and found a Dr who has studied this for years in San Francisco, he says the same mite that causes acne causes rosacea, so I thought of Purification applied neat after one month no outbreaks.

Exodus ll used for boils
Author: Sigrun Broendby, Denmark

Unless I stick to a strictly non-sugar diet and do a colon cleanse now and then I get pimples and boils, as my body had a hard time getting rid of toxins. The quickest way for me to deal with this has been to use Exodus ll topically. It seems to draw out pus and infection, as it did when my panicked cat bit me severely on the hand and the bite became infected.

Tea tree oil helps my rash
Author: Pia Washington, DC, United States

I've been using Tea Tree Oil and Almond Oil on my Lupus Rashes for the past three months. What a huge difference this combination has had on healing the rashes. I also use a few drops of lemon essential oil in the mixture to assist with preventing scarring.

White head gone with Oregano

Author: Mimi Crystal Lake, IL, United States

I had this stubborn white head on the side of my nose that I couldn't get rid of for months. I tried to squeeze it but it was too hard. Even applied Retin-A, thinking that it was a pimple, to no luck. One day I put a drop of Oregano oil neat on the spot, and a few hours later, it just rubbed off and gone!

Lavender oil for face acne
Author: Peggy Altamonte Springs, FL, United States

I am a believer! My son gets occasional face breakouts, he is 14. I am a new distributor and just received my Essential 7 Kit. He had a competition to go to today so last night I put Lavender Oil on his breakouts. This morning he came to me sooo happy and showed me his face. His face is just about clear, you can barely see anything on it at all. I will never be without my lavender oil.

Grapefruit for oily skin
Author: Karla Perryville, MO, United States

I have recently started using grapefruit for my very oily skin and have had great results. I put it on each morning and night after I clean my face. I do not seem to be so oily.

Thieves for blemishes and tongue sores
Author: Barbara Royal Palm Beach, FL, United States

I was getting one of those deep pimples that never come to a head, but swell horribly and hurt really bad. I was trying to use Purification (which is known to work on pimples), but it didn't seem to help with that one. I put Thieves on my upper lip before bed and by the next morning it was about 1/4 of the size that it was before. I have been applying it each morning and at night before bed and it does seem to be shrinking.

I also used Thieves on my tongue. I had one of those spots on my tongue that felt very swollen and painful. I put what oil was left on my fingertip on the spot and I didn't have any more pain.

Black heads and Purification oil

Author: Gary Royal Oaks, CA, United States

I have been using Young living's Purification on black heads and it turns them into an easily squeezable fatty oil that easily presses out without hurting the person. The pore goes back to normal size and only a few times did I have to repeat the process to clean up a pore. The Purification oil has to sit on the black head for a while before it comes out. Sometimes same day sometimes over several days of using the oil on the black head.

Lemon oil completely cleared up pimples in hours

Author: Dana Perryville, MO, United States

My daughter is 12 and is just starting to experience blemishes or pimples. I am so excited for teenagers everywhere because it is so easy and inexpensive to eliminate. My daughter put lemon oil on her face and within 24 hours EVERY TRACE of PIMPLES were GONE! How beautiful? A non-toxic, healthy, inexpensive way to preserve health and look beautiful.

LEMON Oil is under $20 for a bottle that is approximately 300 drops and you only use one drop to clean your face. Thank you to God for these beautiful oils!

ART skin care helps with skin irregularities

Author: Sandy Mountain Home, AR, United States

I have been using ART skin care for several years now. I began because I had very aged looking skin on my upper chest from several serious sunburns-- right there in the V of the blouse area. That V looked wrinkled and browned next to the healthy, unburned skin. My Dermatologist said it would always be discolored.

After using ART skin care for about 3 months, my skin was softer, less wrinkled, and of a smoother color. It blended smoothly with the rest of my skin. Of course my face had fewer wrinkles and the scars of earlier acne were gone.

My husband had some bumps on his face. Since his mother suffered from skin cancers, I was worried. I have no idea what these irregular bumps were, but after using ART for about 3 months, 3 of the 4 bumps were completely gone and the last one was diminished and much less noticeable.

Ningxia Red versus a boil
Author: Marilyn Terre Haute, IN, United States

My earliest recollection of being in a doctor's office was a visit at the tender age of 4 to have a boil lanced which was big, ugly and painful over my eyebrow. It was to be the first of many. As I entered puberty I found myself plagued with one every single month in one of the various warmest parts of my body.

After I had my hysterectomy (pre-YLEO!) I was relieved of the monthly visitation by this loathsome curse - I had developed a real sense of sympathy for the Bible character Job! But occasionally when I'm not getting enough sleep, or am under a greater than usual amount of stress, I find myself developing that familiar hard lump, dreading the inevitable pain and mess, and I fervently wish I was free of the culture that hides somewhere within me.

So last Saturday night when, after a couple of days of mild itching I noticed an almost 'ripe' boil, I took a double-dose of Ningxia Red and by Sunday at noon the size had decreased by half. Today (Monday at noon) it is almost gone and I am certain it will completely disappear without draining!

If I took Ningxia Red daily I probably wouldn't even have developed the silly thing in the first place. Let this be a lesson to me!

Baby thrush is now gone
Author: Jessica Lasalle, MI, United States

When our child was born he was born with a mild case of thrush. It didn't seem to bother our son much but as the month progressed so did his thrush symptoms. My husband and I realized that I, of course, needed to watch what I ate better as I was breast feeding. Thrush is a yeast infection and yeast grows when it's fed artificial sugars and bread :) We also realized we needed some good intestinal flora to combat the yeast build up.

We had a reserve about the gentian violet but we tried it. After three days of application, it seemed to stop the growth of yeast but it didn't clear it up. My son now had a bad case of pimples on top of the thrush.

My husband and I decided to try Claraderm for his pimples. We sprayed one spray on his chest in the mornings and spread it out along his shoulders and back. It cleared up his pimples within days.

Then I started taking Royaldophilus while I gave my son clove internally. I diluted clove oil (1 drop to 15 drops of v-6) and I rubbed it on his tongue daily. After a few days the white on his tongue was completely gone.

Rosewood helps clear acne

Author: Jennifer
Location: Pittsburgh, PA, United States

I picked Rosewood oil because of it's many properties to kill bacteria and fungus. I use it by mixing two drops with the V-6 mixing oil. Then I smooth it on my face before bed. My skin is healthy and beautiful when I wake up. It helped clear up my acne.

My acne lesson
Author: Thomas
Location: Wadena, MN, United States

About a year and a half ago, I started developing bad acne on my face. I had this problem through out all of my tenth grade year, and I had tried almost every acne face wash I could get my hands on and washed my face twice a day: once in the morning and once at night.

I drank 2-3 bottles of water a day, and started eliminating sugary foods which made me feel healthier and cleared my acne only a little bit. I went tanning frequently because it seemed to clear up my face a little, but this only helped my acne temporarily until I would break out again after about 2 days following each tan session (which isn’t a healthy habit to start in the first place).

When May of last year came around, I had been so sick and tired of trying to treat my acne that I made an appointment with my doctor to get help with my embarrassing acne. He gave me a prescription of antibiotics and a gel to apply topically to pimples. I took my daily doses for the whole month of June and got very unsuccessful results, and the antibiotics took a toll on my body.

In July 2009, I decided to fight my acne the more natural way through the Young Living Essential Oils my dad had been pushing on me this whole time but, I’d been too stubborn to try. First, I asked my dad who is a CNHP to use his Zyto bio-survey technology on me. We then looked at the oils that it suggested for me to take, and one of them was SclarEssence which would help with hormonal imbalances (the root of my problem).

After receiving the oil in the mail, I started putting the oil on my ankles every night before I went to bed. At the same time, I started using an acne system I bought at Wal-Mart that was a knock-off of Pro-Active. Soon after I started using that and the SclarEssence, my face started to clear up within about two weeks. This had been the best my skin had looked in a while, even though I still had a few breakouts. Although, after using the Acne Free system, I noticed that all of our washcloths were getting bleached from the chemicals used in it. So basically, I had been bleaching my face as well which was drying out my skin tremendously.

This past November I started noticing that my face had been itching more than ever and my eyes were getting puffy at night. Eventually, my eyes were swollen shut one morning after using Acne Free, and I decided to stop using it for good! It took a week or two to get moisture back in my skin and reduce the puffiness on my eyes. After throwing it away, I started to use SclarEssence (the oil I had been using since July) in the mornings as well as nights, and my acne cleared up even more. Now I realize that it was the oils that cleared up my acne which also fixed the root problem of it all: a hormone imbalance. Going the natural way with the amazing Young Living Oils was the only way that worked for me, and I wish I could’ve figured that out earlier.

Lavender for skin care
Author: KC
Location: WA, WA, Australia

I was reading on how lavender was universally effective in helping ailments. One of the common things, I read about was skincare. So I dabbed some on an affected boiled acne and the next day waking up - I found my acne shrunk to a small dot and the oil inside was hardened. I find it astounding, it worked faster than putting my Miracle neutralizer gel on (takes almost a week to get the pimple to shrink to a small dot.

Our son had acne quite extensively all over his face and neck, as well as a lot of scarring. He used applied Lavender neat, twice a day on his face and even the scars cleared up, leaving his face looking great. He wasn't worried about his neck, and you can see exactly how far he went with the Lavender.

Roman Chamomile and geranium for skin breakouts
Author: Aaron
Location: San Diego, CA, United States
Skills: Kinesiologist

Several years ago I had developed cystic acne during a very stressful time of my life. 4-5 years have passed and I've had very little trouble with my skin. However, I was using a skin care line that, while helping the situation, ended up being full of chemicals that I did not want on my skin so I stopped using it.

I was also pregnant at the time and after stopping the skin care line my skin immediately started to break out and was showing small signs of the cystic acne again. I read in one of the oil books we have that Roman Chamomile and Geranium were good for the skin so I started to apply them (alternating each night) before bed. Immediately my skin cleared up, not only the blemishes, but my skin tone greatly improved and became soft and smooth.


Acne blemishes and Menstrual pain

I am very happy to have been introduced to Young Living Essential Oils. As many experience, I have two chronic health concerns that go hand in hand, acne and PMS symptoms of all sorts. I struggled to find relief. Since using Ningzia Red the oils - Frankincense, Sandalwood, Lavender, Joy, Thieves and peppermint - combined with elimination of allergenic foods and chemicals from my daily life, I have in the first fifteen years experienced great relief! Thanks to God's miracles, stewarded to us thru Young Living! Aloha!


Eczema skin abrasions and acne

Author: Angie
Location: Kingwood, TX, United States

1. Eczema- In an update on my daughters Eczema....it is gone. I had mixed 1/2 a cup of olive oil with a few drops of Lavender on the opposite sides of her elbow and backs of her legs. Both sites have healed nicely with minimal discoloration and are smooth and not itchy.

2. Skin Abrasion- Same daughter 'wiped-out' as she calls it on the concrete and skinned her elbow badly on her way to school almost a week ago. When she came home and showed me her elbow I took off the bandage and applied Lavender to the whole area. The pain and stinging went right away (which was a relief to her, because as she bent her elbow it throbbed with pain). The healing process was so much quicker than anything I've ever seen-and with four children who are all tree climbers and very active, I've seen lots of 'Boo Boos'! Today it's been almost a week and the elbow looks so good and the skin is healing nicely. We've been applying the Lavender full strength to it at first a few times a day as needed for pain, and now only once- looks like there won't be any scarring, which is a plus.

3. Skin irritation/acne- OK This one is a personal experience... I did a BIG no no and am paying for it.... my daughter and husband had birthdays this weekend, and I drank a few sodas. I completely break out when I drink soda, and the acne around my chin was so irritated it was horrible and itchy. One place even bled, after the scab came off when I was washing my face with a cloth. I applied Lavender after remembering a testimony here about acne and Lavender and well also thinking about my daughter's success with Lavender. The black scabbed area has gone away within a few hours, I just happened to walk by a mirror and notice. Also, the tenderness of the break-out is almost completely gone and it seems to be disappearing...it went from this morning from bright red and raw looking to now lightly pink and clearing up. Now I applied a few drops night before last, yesterday morning, last night, and now I am doing another application. I wish I would have remembered to take before and after pictures. I'll have to remember it for the future with skin irritations or abrasions.

Adult acne and eczema
Author: Jeanna
Location: Dallas, TX, United States

I recently began using oils upon the suggestion from my spiritual sister. She knew I was having problems with my skin and wanted a natural way to get rid of it. She recommended the oils and I have been able to clear my skin up. I started with just lavender and began reading up on the oils and now use a combination of Purification, Melrose, Gentle Baby and a few others. I made sure the oils I used were both beneficial for the acne and the eczema. I am so glad to know that I have a naturally provision from God. I am completely sold on the oils and share with everyone.

Frankincense, Lavender and Lemon for blemishes
Author: Jacqueline
Location: Highland Park, MI, United States

I am 56 years old and I started getting blemishes at age 14. By the age of 19 had terrible acne scars and large pores. Through the years I've tried just about every thing and only saw just a little improvement. Then a few months ago I started using Frankincense, Lavender and Lemon and the large pores on my face are getting smaller and my complexion has brighten, the dark scars are becoming lighter. After all these years I am now faced with the possibility of an even colored complexion and smooth skin. I'm giving a large shout out to essential oils! Yes!


Menopause and acne

Author: Denise
Location: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

I first visited this site 4 weeks ago and noted that certain essential oils are worth trying on your skin for healing. I started having problems with my skin at age 52, refused HRT as the doc prescribed and have been under the care of a Naturopath since then. I felt there was something else I could do to speed up the healing and found essential oils the key.

Well, I am happy to say that I'm on top of my healing. I began by using a couple of drops of Lavender on my face and particular attention to the infected areas. Then dabbed Bergamot on the infected areas only. I have not had a bad reaction to the skin.

I've been blending as a base and as my moisturizer Apricot oil, rose-hip & calundra. I then add a few drops of Lavender and Bergamot.

Happy healing!

Skin boils and breakouts are a thing of the past
Author: Kimberly
Location: Dana Point, CA, United States

My partner suffers with large breakouts on his back, chest and neck. We're not really sure what they are since they are way too big to be acne. We think they're some type of boil. We tried several oils that weren't really working. Then I stumbled upon the description of oils and their usages in the Bible Kit. The description was in the book the Healing Oils of the Bible. We started putting 1 drop of Galbanum with 3 drops of Cedarwood in about 3 cups of really warm water. Then we use a washcloth to wipe down his back, chest and neck every night before bedtime. Within a couple days all the boils disappeared and no new ones resurfaced. As long as we do this nightly his skin stays soft and smooth and his confidence stays high. It's the first time in many many years he's been without these skin blemishes.

Acne and lavender oil

Author: Paula Livingston, TN, United States

My granddaughter has a really bad acne problem. She has used the usual products on the market and still had really bad acne that I was afraid was going to leave scarring. She visited me for the weekend of Thanksgiving and we started putting YL Lavender essential oil on her face 2 times a day. Her mother commented that she was going to purchase her kit when she got back to her home because she could see that the Lavender oil was clearing up her daughters face! I will update when she orders and continues to use it!

Acne - cystic
Author: Lydia Lacey, WA, United States

I have had oily skin my whole life and acne to varying degrees as well. The wash from the ART skincare is the best I have every used- cleans thoroughly but does not dry the skin out. Sometimes I still do have a breakout and mine are usually cystic in nature so very painful. (I think a liver cleanse is in order)When I feel a bump starting up I use lemon oil on it and 99% of the time it STOPS it from forming. This is a near miracle in my experience with this type of acne!

Lavender for acne blemishes
Author: Autumn Elliottsburg, PA, United States

Young Living's lavender essential oil works wonders on acne! I apply it neat with my finger to problem areas. I have tried everything there is out there for acne. Sometimes it works for a period of time and sometimes in makes my face worse. I am 20 years old and I have a lot of stress in my life between full-time college and two part-time jobs. Lavender essential oil has done so much for me!

I am 51 years old and I wanted to feel younger. Well, My face broke out with acne. That was not they way I wanted to feel younger! I am sure the break out was hormone related. My forehead had broken out with what I call 'angry acne'. It was red and painful. I put three drops of Myrtle oil in my hand and placed it on my forehead. The next morning the angry soreness was gone! The healing had begun. I continued using the oil for three more days and the acne is gone! I love these oils.

Oils used for acne by teen-age grandchildren

Author: Patricia Pasadena, CA, United States

Since I've noticed that K(17) and G(14) have really excellent complexions, I asked K to write their testimonial about the oils. They have very little acne problems. So, she sent me this email.

Hi Grandma,
Here's the oils I use for my face.

Melrose
Roman Chamomile
Cedarwood
Lavender
Gentle Baby
Geranium
Patchouli
Orange
Rosewood

All the above oils can be used to help diminish the appearance and existence of acne.I go through this entire list of oils one by one, using a different one every day.Use 2-3 drops of an oil for less acne prone skin and 3-5 for really oily skin. Put the drops and a small dollop of face lotion in the palm of one hand and mix together. then apply over all blemishes. i usually apply once a day before i go to bed because of the strong scent but you can apply twice a day. Some are more drying than others.But they all work really well:) I've had people tell me that my face looks much better when i use the oils.Be consistent and your patience will pay off!

How's that for a testimony? Love ya!!

What I did for acne
Author: Joseph Katy, TX, United States

My face would occasionally break out with acne no matter what soap, astringent or cleanser I used. Eventually I was at a complete loss and had the revelation that less is more. So I simply used a simple Almond or Peppermint castille soap and followed up by massaging a few drops of cedarwood essential oil all over my face.

I did this once in the morning and once in the evening. I learned that it is good to use other oils so I would also use lavender, patchouli, galbanum and spikenard.

For the past few months my skin has looked incredibly smooth and the few breakouts I've had are very small in size.

Thieves and olive oil for acne
Author: Anita San Antonio, TX , United States

A few weeks ago my daughter was asking if any of the oils help with acne or pimples. And I said, well lets read up on it first...because I wasn't sure, I am new member and I am still learning how to use the oils.

I was reading that you can use Thieves for acne, and my daughter heard me saying that, so she proceeded with the oil, without waiting for me to finish and she placed dabs of oils on the lower part of her face, which at first didn't feel anything at first then all of sudden it started burning and on fire. It really hurt her for awhile, then I got on the phone with our distributor and she said I needed to use 50/50 oil with extra virgin olive oil to help it work. So remember to read up on instructions before you put anything on your face.

Acne flare ups
Author: Nancy Tomball, TX, United States

From time to time I break out on my face with bumps and sometimes it is a cyst/knot. I have found that Lemon, Thieves and Clove work best for me. My favorite is the Clove because it also smells good and does not cause redness on my face. I place a couple of drops on a Qtip and hold it on the bumps. Most of the time the blemishes are gone overnight and at the most, it takes 2 days. It is very frustrating dealing with acne at my age and the oils have taken away that frustration because I know they work ...and fast.

Temperatures can soar during summer months. Right now in the south, record temperatures and little to no rain are being felt in many cities. You don't have to outside to feel the heat. Here are some ways to beat the heat and its health challenges.

Indoors ceiling fans, boxed fans even a small desk or table fan can keep air circulating and make the home temperature a bit cooler. When bathing use a peppermint infused soap which makes the skin feel cool (YL Peppermint & Cedarwood bar soap and Morning Start shower gel). Wearing natural fiber clothing that breathes.

Lakes and rivers (fresh water) - While you may not encounter lots of chlorine, you could certainly encounter many other hazardous chemicals and bacteria found in our many lakes and rivers. Make sure swimmers and water skiers fortify their immune system and use essential oils known to combat bacteria and fungus before and after swimming. Thieves and Melrose are great choices - a few drops of each on the bottom of the feet the morning of swimming and that evening. Carry NingXia Red sample packets with you in an ice cooler for an energy recharge during the day and replace essential nutrients lost thru sweating.

Electrolyte Drink

Two ounces Ningxia Red
16 ounces purified water
20 drops Mineral Essence
1 drop lemon oil
1 drop peppermint oil
One teaspoon Blue Agave
Mix together in bottle to take with you in the cooler. Sip on these rather than dehydrating soft drinks and alcohol.

Oceans (salt water)
- Much the same as fresh water as far as not too many chemical contaminants (depends really on where you pick to swim), you may concern yourself more with dry skin, cuts from small shells and critters in the water.

Cuts and Boo-Boos
Rinse with purified water, apply a few drops of Melrose(antiseptic), RC*, lavender (soothing) and/or tsuga (helps control bleeding). Bandage if needed and to protect. * While attending a Young Living Grand Convention they showed slides showing the power of RC to eliminate the staph or MRSA which is found in many lakes, rivers and streams. It can enter the boy through a blister or small scrape - any opening of the skin. We apply RC to all skin abrasions.

Bug Bites
Purification, basil, peppermint and Idaho Balsam fir are all oils people find helpful for insect bites.

Commercial sunscreens often contain toxic ingredients and most carry warning labels. A safer, natural choice can be found with essential oil infused products. The Drops of Gold recipe (see recipe below) which has a sun protection level of about 15%, is an all-natural alternative.

Essential oils that are known as sun protectors include helichrysum and lavender. The ingredients in the ART Skin Care system are also sun protective. Applying a bit of the ART Day or Night lotion to the face, neck and shoulders, along with a good hat and shirt could really save your day.

Sunburns - Lavenderm Cooling Mist is your best friend for quenching the heat and pain of a sunburn. This aloe vera and lavender combo puts out the fire and promotes healing to damaged skin. Always keep a bottle of Young Living Lavender handy for really bad burns wether from the sun, the grill or campfire. Be sure to drink lots of NingXia Red when sunburned, as minerals are lost and NingXia Red is a great and tasty way to put them back into the body. The ART skin care Night lotion, and Boswella Wrinkle Cream also feed the skin deeply.

Heat Stroke - Avoid It
Staying well hydrated is probably the most important step in avoiding heat stroke. Your body looses water to evaporation, breathing and sweating. There are also some people who do not sweat, which is also the action of cooling the body so these people can also be at risk for over-heating. Stay cool by adding peppermint to your drinking water - one to two drops per 16 ounces water. Have a misting bottle of water and peppermint oil to spray on face, with eyes closed,, arms, legs, back of neck, etc. Peppermint mist recipe: 2 ounces purified water, 4 drops peppermint oil. Shake and spray. Recipe may be doubled for larger spray bottles. Lavederm Cooling mist can also be used to cool an over heated person. Both are refreshing on a hot day, even if you are just doing errands.

Drops of Gold
Before there was A.R.T. and the Essential Beauty Serums, I created Drops of Gold to nourish and hydrate the skin. Hundreds of women still stand by this favorite beauty treatment that you can make yourself.

This recipe makes five 1/2 ounce bottles. You may cut the recipe in half if you do not have that many friends you will bless with this exceptional formula. Use only 2-3 drops of this formula on your face, dotting all over and gently massaging in. Now that we have Palo Santo - my Drops of Gold will also have added 10 drops of Palo Santo into the mix.

1 ounces almond oil
1/2 ounce Jojoba oil
1ounces Evening Primrose Oil
20 drops of Vit. E oil

24 drops Patchouli
12 drops Geranium
20 drops Frankincense
8 drops Rosewood
8 drops Lavender
3 drops Rose
5 drops Palo Santo (not part of the original recipe, but I love it, so now am adding it.

Combine the carrier oils in a glass measuring cup. Drop in the oils in the order listed. Carefully swirl to blend. Pour into 1/2 ounce or one ounce bottles with droppers.

Other sun protective natural items are:

Zinc Oxide (coated): A nano particle coated Zinc Oxide is not photo-reactive and will not produce hydroxylions (free radicals). UV natural zinc does not absorb into the blood stream and affect serum zinc levels. You can find zinc oxide sun protective products at stores, just make sure they do not contain harmful ingredients. Zinc assists in the growth and repair of skin tissue. Acts as a broad spectrum UV (A,B,C) deflector. Make sure your multi-vitamin contains zinc - Young Livings: True Source, Master His/Hers.

Sesame Oil:

Works in conjunction with antioxidants to retain the integrity of the collagen and elastin in preventing wrinkles and aging.
