Hot Tip - A Testimonial On What Not To Do
If you're as forgetful as I sometimes can be, you may make the same mistake I recently did when I applied Joy oil to my neck for a perfume, but then went into the sunshine without sunscreen!! Joy oil contains Bergamot oil which is highly photosensitive. The hyper pigmentation was incredible! First turned bright red (and itched!!) then purple, then dark, dark brown. I was certain I'd be "scarred" for life. I tried alternating Frankincense and Lavender and rubbing it in with the ART Night Cream 2-3x daily. Clearly the DNA restorative properties are incredible. In 3 months I no longer have any signs of the pigmentation. Normally this takes 2-3 years to correct!

The Essential 7 Kit was created by Young Living Essential Oils (YLEO) so that anyone could immediately use and appreciate the benefits of therapeutic-grade essential oils. The Kit contains three single oils: Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), Lemon (Citrus limon) and Peppermint (Mentha piperita), and four oil blends: Joy, PanAway, Peace & Calming and Purification. All single oils may be used as dietary supplements. All of the oils may by diffused. The diffuser from YLEO is a special air pump that is custom designed to disperse the oils in a micro fiber vapor. This allows the oils to stay suspended in the air to reduce bacteria, fungi and mold. It also freshens the air with natural fragrances, eliminating the need for synthetic, harmful air fresheners. The diffuser disperses the oils without heat, which could render the essential oils less effective. All of the oils can be applied to the Vita Flex points on the feet, added to bath water mixed with YLEO’s Bath Gel Base, applied topically or used with body and foot massage.
