New Starter Kit and Wholesale Membership

In case you're just starting out in exploring oils (which was me a few months ago!) it is important to know that there are many EO manufacturers and suppliers out there.  Oils range in availability, price, and quality.  I always recommend that everyone do their own research to figure out 1) if essential oils are right for them and if so, 2) who to choose as a distributor for oils.  That being said, I have made no secret of the fact that I have chosen Young Living as my oil supplier.  I am happy to have individual conversations with anyone interested about how I arrived at that conclusion if you would like to contact me directly.  So as a result, this post is specifically about Young Living Oils and Membership.

Anyone is able (and welcome) to purchase Young Living products without any commitment or membership, simply by ordering through their website.  This is a nice feature for anyone needing just one individual type of oil, or just wanting to try one thing.  There are other options, though, for those looking for a more economical option.  Anyone with a wholesale membership with Young Living has the ability to purchase products at wholesale pricing (24% discount).  So if you want to try some oils but don't want to pay full price, you can ask a member (like me!) to order for you and ship them to you - even with the shipping cost they will be cheaper than full price with shipping.  Otherwise, you can sign up for a membership of your own.  You need to select a starter kit (ranging from $45 - $160) which includes information about the oils and the company in additional to the products (varying based on which kit you choose).  Then you have access to the same pricing and benefits as I do.  The Starter Kits are not available for individual sale.  They are only available with a membership.

The exciting thing is that the Premium Starter Kit, which is Young Living's most popular starter kit (and best value of the starter kits) has just received an update, and in my opinion the new Premium Starter Kit is a huge improvement on the old version (which I loved, too).
 (The information and images below, about each of the starter kits, come directly from the Young Living website)

Basic Starter Kit:
The most affordable of the Starter Kits is the Basic Kit.  It is available in English or Spanish and includes the following:

  • 5-ml Stress Away™ oil blend, 
  • AromaGlide™ Roller Fitment for turning any 15 ml. bottle of oils into a convenient roller bottle, 
  • 10 Sample Packets (2 each of Thieves Oil Blend, Lavender Oil, Peppermint Oil, Lemon Oil, and Peace and Calming Oil Blend) , 
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Business Cards, 
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Oil Bottles for filling with your favorite oils to share with friends)
  •  2 NingXia Red® 2-oz. samples, 
  • Product Guide and Product Price List, 
  • Essential Oil Magazine, Essential Edge,
  •  and Member Resources.  


Premium Starter Kit Options

The best deal is the Premium Starter Kit.  There are three different versions of it, detailed below.
Premium Starter Kit with Diffuser:
This is what I started with, although it has gotten some upgrades since I bought it, and I have to say I'm a little jealous!  It is also available in English or Spanish.  Along with your membership, you get all of the following:

  • Home Diffuser - you have your choice of four different models.  The one shown in this picture was the one I got with my starter kit (and I love it!) 
  • Premium Essential Oils Collection: (Lavender 5-ml, Peppermint 5-ml, Lemon 5-ml, Copaiba 5-ml, Frankincense 5-ml, Thieves® 5-ml, Purification® 5-ml, R.C.™ 5-ml, DiGize™ 5-ml, PanAway® 5-ml) - I've posted about how I use many of these, and posts about the others on this list are forthcoming! 
  • 5-ml Stress Away™ oil blend 
  • AromaGlide™ Roller Fitment for turning any 15 ml. bottle of oils into a convenient roller bottle 
  • 10 Sample Packets (2 each of Thieves Oil Blend, Lavender Oil, Peppermint Oil, Lemon Oil, and Peace and Calming Oil Blend
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Business Cards 
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Oil Bottles for filling with your favorite oils to share with friends)
  •  2 NingXia Red® 2-oz. samples 
  • Product Guide and Product Price List 
  • Essential Oil Magazine, Essential Edge
  • Member Resources 
If you've done some reading or research and you know you want a Young Living Membership but instead of the oils, you're interested in the Ninxia Red products, this might be where you want to start.
The kit (available in both English and Spanish) includes:
  • NingXia Red 2-pack 
  • 30 NingXia Red Singles (2 fl. oz. ea.) 
  • NingXia Nitro 5-ml
  • 5-ml Stress Away™ oil blend 
  • AromaGlide™ Roller Fitment for turning any 15 ml. bottle of oils into a convenient roller bottle 
  • 10 Sample Packets (2 each of Thieves Oil Blend, Lavender Oil, Peppermint Oil, Lemon Oil, and Peace and Calming Oil Blend
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Business Cards 
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Oil Bottles for filling with your favorite oils to share with friends)
  •  2 NingXia Red® 2-oz. samples 
  • Product Guide and Product Price List 
  • Essential Oil Magazine, Essential Edge
  • Member Resources 
Once again, if you know you are interested in a Young Living Membership, but you're more interested in the Thieves Oil products instead of the oils, you might want to look into this option.  Also available in English and Spanish, the Starter Kit with Thieves includes:
  • 15-ml Thieves Oil
  • Thieves AromaBright™ Toothpaste
  • Thieves Fresh Essence Plus Mouthwash
  • 2 Thieves Cleaner
  • 2 Thieves Foaming Hand Soap
  • 2 Thieves Spray
  • 2 Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier
  • 5-ml Stress Away™ oil blend 
  • AromaGlide™ Roller Fitment for turning any 15 ml. bottle of oils into a convenient roller bottle 
  • 10 Sample Packets (2 each of Thieves Oil Blend, Lavender Oil, Peppermint Oil, Lemon Oil, and Peace and Calming Oil Blend
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Business Cards 
  • 10 Love It? Share It! Sample Oil Bottles for filling with your favorite oils to share with friends)
  •  2 NingXia Red® 2-oz. samples 
  • Product Guide and Product Price List 
  • Essential Oil Magazine, Essential Edge
  • Member Resources 
All of the Starter Kits are a fantastic deal, and provide you with everything you need to get started with your own Essential Oil experience.  But what you won't find out at the Young Living Website is that there are sometimes benefits beyond the ones they offer as well.  When you enroll for a membership through an existing member, you become part of their membership organization (picture a family tree of members and all whom they've enrolled).  Most of these individual organizations have social media groups that are open only to members of that particular organization, where participants share ideas, testimonials, stories, DIY recipes, etc. This is where I do much of my learning about the oils, and where I get news and updates about new products, special deals, etc.  Many of these organizations also offer video classes, live classes, webinars, contests, and more.  Participation in all of these things is optional, but is only offered to members of that organization.

So if you're thinking about a membership. . . . let me know how I can help you.  And if you use this link to sign up for membership, you will become a part of the same membership organization as I am, gaining access to all of the additional benefits mentioned above.

Good luck!
