Toxin Free Summer Skincare
This summer, the opportunity for adventure is endless. In this blog I will share my favorite tips for enjoying your outdoor time while maintaining healthy, vibrant looking skin.
Growing up I was taught to read labels. I learned all the ingredients to stay away from, and how to make my own DIY recipes for things like bug spray. All that took a lot of time and effort though! Now I’m so thankful to have easy access to ordering Young Living’s all-natural products. It saves me time running all around town, reading labels, and bargain shopping.
The products mentioned below are my all time favorite skin enhancing products for the summer time. Included is a product description, ingredient list for most products, and usage directions. I hope this makes your summer shopping easy and enjoyable! Feel free to share this blog with friends and family looking for summer skincare solutions. Simple ordering instructions are at the bottom of this blog.

When it comes to using deodorant and keeping those unwanted smells at bay, you also want to be aware of allowing the body to breathe.
