Plus, the ingredients are healthy and good for your skin - especially if the summer heat or winter cold has your skin feeling dry.

• 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
• Essential oils, dried herbs, or coffee grounds as desired (see below)

How-to

The foaming hand soaps from Young Living are made with only naturally derived, moisturizing ingredients such vitamin E and aloe and are infused with premium essential oils, making them effective at cleaning, gentle on the skin and safe for the whole family!

WHY WE LOVE YL HAND SOAPS

• Instant foam makes it easy to lather and rinse for a more thorough cleaning
• Contains moisturizing ingredients like aloe and ginkgo biloba to promote softer, smoother hands
• Effective and gentle enough for the whole family
• Formulated with naturally derived, plant-based ingredients
• Multiple scents available so we can switch with the seasons for fun!

WHY DITCH ANTIBACTERIAL SOAPS When it comes to cleaning our hands (especially post 2020), we want to make sure we are using products that are effective, but that don't damage our health. Turns out that the benefits of using antibacterial hand soap haven't been proven and widespread use of antibacterial soaps even has negative consequences for our health, including contributing to bacterial resistance.

In fact, when it comes to our skin, we actually want some beneficial bacteria there. The same way that we want a healthy mix of bacteria to inhabit the gut, we want to keep the bacteria that normally populate the skin as well. It is a crucial piece to overall health!! Without this your immune system would not be able to properly protect you from infection and disease and your skin would be susceptible to a variety of skin ailments. Washing away all that goodness with antibacterial soaps is actually counterproductive to our health!

Master Formula is a daily must have -- it is the Young Living equivalent of a multivitamin! This full-spectrum, multinutrient complex provides premium vitamins, minerals, and food-based nutrients to support general health and well-being. Not only is it an exceptional formula of necessary vitamins and minerals, it includes prebiotics, antioxidants, and essential oils that further increase the absorption of all those wonderfully good things!

JUST A DROP OF MASTER FORMULA

• Naturally supports general health and well-being for the body
• Contains gut flora-supporting prebiotics (SO important for gut health and for absorption of all the vitamins and minerals Master Formula contains)
• Ingredients help neutralize free radicals in the body
• Includes antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and other food-based nutrition
• Prepackaged sachets are convenient to take your vitamins on the go
• NO synthetic ingredients. NO artificial colorings. NO unnecessary fillers. AND you can bet that every ingredient used is of the highest quality.

When it comes to conventional vitamins and supplements, it is incredibly difficult to find options that aren't filled with unnecessary colorings, fillers and binders. Sadly these ingredients are almost always synthetic, wreaking havoc on the body, especially over time, disrupting hormones, causing allergies (often low-level so we barely notice!) and gut disruption. And none of us want that for ourselves or our families!! Especially when we are trying to do something good like take a multivitamin!!
