How to Order Young Living Oils

If you are ready to buy a starter kit, then be sure to sign up as a wholesale member (with one of the Premium Starter Kits) through the instructions below.  Retail purchases may also be placed through this link.
1. Head over to the Young Living page here and fill out your information. (Please use your laptop or desktop to sign-up, instead of your smartphone or tablet.)
2. Be sure the "Wholesale Member" option is checked so that you don't end up paying retail prices (which are 24% more than wholesale). You may also sign up as a "Retail Member" if you wish.  Please reach out to me with any questions regarding this, I want to make sure you get the best deal possible!  
3. Be sure the "sponsor ID" and "enroller id" say 1846714
4. Select your starter kit.  My recommendation is the Premium Starter kit with either the DewDrop or Home Diffuser for $160.  This kit comes with the oils that I use every single day and will qualify you for all of the freebies I will send you! 
5. Step 2 in the sign-up process is totally optional.  Young Living offers an awesome program called Essential Rewards that allows us to earn free oils by earning points on products that we want to buy anyway.  It also give us reduced shipping! Watch this video which explains Essential Rewards and then either select one of their pre-made kits or at least 50PV in products.  You may also choose to skip Essential Rewards for now.  You can always sign-up at a later date! :-)  
          Also, if you wish you add any additional product(s) to your order you will find this
          option on the bottom of the page.
6. Fill out the rest of your membership information.  Under Commission Processing click on individual (unless you are a business). 
          7. Go through the checkout process.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does signing up make me a "distributor"?

Nope! You are not required to sell anything at all to anyone. When you become a wholesale member, you get a special link that you can share with friends and get credit from their purchases, but there are no minimum sales amounts at all. In fact, 90% of the wholesale members in Young Living don't do the business side at all. They are buying from Young Living because of the quality alone.

Am I required to make a minimum purchase each month?

There are absolutely no minimum monthly purchase requirements. To remain a wholesale member, you have to make $50 worth of purchases per year to keep your membership. But if there's a year that you don't make a $50 purchase, you can reinstate your wholesale membership discount by just placing a $50 order. If you do find yourself making regular purchases each month, then Young Living has a rewards program called Essential Rewards where you can make a nice percentage back in product credit each month on all of your purchases. So that's a neat program to join if you find that you *want* to purchase regularly, but it's not a requirement for being a wholesale member.

Why should I buy from Young Living instead of other essential oils companies?

It does seem like a new essential oils company pops up every day, doesn't it? I can't speak to the quality of other companies, but I can say that Young Living was the only company in my research of essential oil companies that could answer all of my questions about purity in a way that was satisfactory to me. Young Living is the only company that has their own farms (in the regions where the plants should be grown), could absolutely guarantee that no pesticides or herbicides were used in the growing of any of their oils (they use essential oils for pest control and they do all of the weeding by hand), has their own testing equipment (they do both in-house and 3rd party testing, and use many different testing methods not just GC/MS which only tests for certain chemicals, not whether those chemicals are synthetic or not), and only uses the first distillation of oils instead of adding chemicals to get more out of the plant. Young Living also was the only company that was directly in charge of essential oil farming operations. Every other company I researched goes through some kind of an “oil broker” to buy their oils. They have to trust that the oil broker is telling the truth, who has to trust that the essential oil distilleries are telling the truth, who have to trust that the farmers are telling the truth about what they say they are doing. With Young Living, you just have to trust one company instead of several. It’s a trust step either way since anyone could be lying, but I felt the most comfortable trusting Young Living since they are a full-disclosure company. Anyone can visit the farms, participate in the harvesting and distillation, view the Young Living labs, and see the entire process. That's not an option with other companies.

How will I know which oils to use for what?

One of the benefits of getting a starter kit through this promotion is that you also get to join our private Facebook group that's specifically for questions about essential oils! The reference guide that we are giving away as part of this promotion is also a HUGE resource. You can look up almost anything in it and see which essential oils and supplements can be helpful.

Does Young Living only sell essential oils?

Young Living actually has an entire line of personal care products, a mineral make-up line, supplements, meal replacements, energy drinks, and more! Almost every product incorporates essential oils (for example, frankincense is absolutely wonderful in facial products), but there's a wide variety of products available.
