Living a chemical-free lifestyle can sound like a massive undertaking, but luckily, Young Living is here to help you tackle the learning curve with simple products you can trust. From home cleaners, personal care items, kid-friendly favorites, and even products made for your furry friends, you can swap out the old and make way for new, clean products the whole family will love.
Chemicals and toxins can pop up in the most unlikely of places, which is why we’ve worked to provide a clean alternative for nearly every aspect of home life. We don’t want to expose our families to nasty chemicals like formaldehyde, artificial dyes, or parabens any more than you do, which is why we’re picky about what goes in our products. With each swap you make, you’re one step closer to a clean, harsh chemical-free home.
So what are you waiting for? Dive in and explore the many ways you create a toxin-free home!
Start with the kitchen
A home-cooked meal can go a long way toward a toxin-free lifestyle, but all that effort goes down the drain when your food is contaminated by unforeseen forces. Swap out chemical-laden products while scrubbing dishes, cooking meals, and washing produce for clean alternatives made from naturally derived ingredients.
1. Thieves® Dish Soap: Turn a hated chore into a pleasant experience with our plant-based Thieves Dish Soap. It’s gentle on your hands but tough on grime!
2. Thieves® Fruit & Veggie Soak: Soaking fruits and veggies in a bowl of chemicals? No, thanks! Squirt a few drops of this essential oil-infused formula into a basin of water, soak your produce, and then rinse for squeaky-clean produce that’s safe to enjoy.
3. Thieves® Kitchen & Bath Scrub: Tackle tough buildups of grease, dirt, and residue without the synthetic shortcut of chlorine or other harsh chemicals, keeping it gentle for surfaces used by the whole family. Sprinkle Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub onto a wet surface or sponge, rub the surface for a sparkling clean finish, then rinse.
4. Vitality™ oils: Elevate your dishes with high-quality, flavorful oils like Basil Vitality, Cardamom Vitality, or Cinnamon Bark Vitality. The possibilities and flavor combos are endless! Add Vitality oils to soups, teas, marinades, meat dishes, fresh fruit, or whatever you feel needs an added flavor boost.
Upgrade your personal care
Next up, take some time to tackle your bathroom. From toothpaste to skin care, it’s easy for harsh chemicals to sneak their way in. Read the labels on everything from lotion to shower gel to locate products with hidden chemicals, harsh dyes, or fragrances, then make the swap for a cleaner alternative.

Scour your medicine cabinet
Your medicine cabinet may keep items out of sight, but that doesn’t mean they should be out of mind. From insect repellent to multivitamins, toxic chemicals may be lurking behind closed doors. Make this small section of your home a little healthier with these simple swaps.
12. Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, SPF 50: Did you know that the chemicals in sunscreen absorb into your bloodstream even after just one day of application?

Unwanted chemicals dulling your shine? Many makeup and skin care products are riddled with harmful chemicals that can seep into the skin.
