Repeat after me,
not all essential oils are created equal.
Let's discuss why Young Living.
We love that essential oils are all the rage and are no longer considered weird hippie voodoo. Countless brands of essential oils can now be found everywhere, from grocery stores to gas stations, promising all kinds of things.
The problem is, you don't actually know what's inside those bottles.
They might be deluded, impure, or not even what they're claiming to be at all.
Price is what you pay but value is what you get.
Young Living essential oils may cost you more than those cheapie oils on the shelf at the store, so let's breakdown why this is and how they are an amazing value once you understand the difference.
You aren't cheap.
You deserve the best.
Put down that $3 bottle of lavender oil.
Today, many essential oil manufacturers make synthetic oils in a lab that can smell EXACTLY like the plant they claim to be from. Your nose may not know the difference, but your body does.
Unfortunately, the essential oil industry is highly under-regulated, and there are many tricks of the trade used to mass produce inexpensive oils.
Essential oils can be cut with synthetics, floral waters can be labeled as “essential oils,” oils can be extracted from plants using toxic solvents that leave chemical by-products in your oil, and the list goes on. These products will not help you have a healthier body, mind, or home: instead they can be quite dangerous to your health.
Purity is important, because if you purchase a product that isn’t, you won’t get the results you could get.
Aside from the toxins and other chemicals you’ll likely encounter by using an inferior product,
impure oils just don’t work.
That might lead you to think that essential oils don’t work. In reality, they do.
You just happened to use something that didn’t have the ability to work.
It’s like trying to cut your front yard with a pair of scissors. Crazy right?
Most people have no idea that those scissors (the second-rate oils) are the wrong tool. They do understand that lawn mowers are better than scissors for cutting grass,
but they don’t understand that a higher quality oil is a better tool for anything related to your health and wellbeing.
Would you rather
Eat a burger from McDonalds or an Angus burger I cook for you on my grill?
Would you rather drive a brand new Kia or a brand new Mercedes?
Folgers or Starbucks?
Coach or First Class?
See. We understand quality differentiation in every area of life. Essential oils are no different.
Not all essential oils are created equal.
HOW they are distilled is BIG
In many commercial distilleries, the process is rushed. High pressures (over 5 lbs) and soaring temps (up to 300°F) speed things up, oils are extracted in about 40 minutes flat.
But here’s the problem: that heat fractures delicate molecules. What’s left behind are quick yields with strong top notes (perfect for perfume)… but missing the deeper, therapeutic compounds our bodies actually benefit from.
At Young Living, it’s never about shortcuts.
Take lavender: our distillation takes at least an hour, slowly coaxing out every single beneficial compound.
For frankincense, we take it even further,
12 hours in Spain,
16 hours in Salalah.
Why so long? Be
cause powerhouse compounds like incensole acetate (known for its profound wellness support) don’t even appear until after 11–15 hours of distillation!
Copaiba is a 24-hour process, distilled low and slow in Brazil.
The resin is gently tapped from the tree without harming it, and then steam-distilled at low temperatures to preserve its rich beta-caryophyllene content, one of the highest of any essential oil. This is what gives Copaiba its deeply anti inflammatory and balancing properties.
And here’s the kicker:
if it’s distilled for less than 24 hours, you get ZERO of those therapeutic benefits.
That’s why Young Living’s Seed to Seal process matters so much
because time, patience, and integrity change everything.
Agitation is another key piece. Think of it like an old washing machine, breaking down resins into coarse powder so steam can reach every single particle.
No clumping,
no missed molecules,
just complete, potent extraction.
💧 That is who we are
✔️ Never cutting corners
✔️ Never rushing the process
✔️ Always honoring nature’s integrity, down to the very drop.
Because purity, potency, and purpose matter. Always.
With Young Living you are skipping the scissors and getting results.
