We live in Texas, so there are bugs EVERYWHERE. And almost all of them bite!! Ants, mosquitos, spiders, assassin bugs, and on and on! Thankfully, Young Living has an essential oil blend that we LOVE for relieving the itch! It’s called Purification, and it’s a combo of Citronella, Lavandin, Lemongrass, Rosemary, Myrtle, and Tea Tree oils. I just rub it on a bug bite, and it helps draw out the poison! My kids love it too, and they apply it themselves! For a particularly bad bite, which we were pretty certain was a black widow bite, we used Purification, Basil oil, and Bentontite clay. I was prepping us to head…

When a tooth hurts, you want it fixed NOW. I’m so thankful to have Young Living oils to use while I’m waiting to get into the dentist! My favorites to use are:Panaway – I dilute this blend with a little olive oil and rub it right on my cheek. Clove – I dilute this blend too, and rub it on my gums where it hurts.

I love the sun, and sometimes I mis-judge how much time I’ve spent in it! 🙁 Thankfully, Young Living lavender essential oil is my friend and helps my skin heal quickly! [Don’t use any brand but Young Living on burns! Any additives will make the burn worse. Some brands use lavandin instead of actual lavender oil, and that’s not helpful for the burn either!] I just rub lavender straight on the burn, and reapply a few times if need be! Easy peasy!
