I don’t really talk about the Welcome Home Kit much, mostly because it doesn’t usually come with a diffuser. I have a cheap diffuser from Amazon and it does not work nearly as well as my Young Living diffuser.
However, if you already have a diffuser or you’re just wanting a few oils to get started, this can be a good deal for you.
What comes in the kit:
- 5mL Frankincense- $40.13
- 5mL Lavender- $15.79
- 5mL Peppermint- $13.49
- 5mL Valor- $52.30
- 15mL Grapefruit- $22.70
- 15mL Lemon- $15.13
- 15mL Lime- $16.45
- 15:mL Tangerine- $21.71
- Dewdrop Diffuser- $83.88
- Wooden Vitality Oil Rack- Only available with this kit so I can’t find how much it’s worth.
Total: $197.70 // You Pay: $125 // You Save: $72
As far as total savings go, the Premium Starter Kit or even the Thieves Starter Kit are the better deal, but this is the cheapest oils kit currently available.
How to use these oils:
Frankincense:
- SKIN SUPPORT!!
- Frankincense is my go-to oil for blemishes!
- I rub one drop of frankincense onto my face every night to support healthy skin. Frankincense also has a very calming scent so this helps me wind down for the night.
- Immune System Support
- I recently made a roller bottle with frankincense and Thieves to support my immune system. I roll them down my spine before I go out and about.
- Diffusing for Calm and Grounding
- I honestly rarely diffuse frankincense anymore because I want to save it all for my skin haha!
- But when I do diffuse it, the scent is very grounding and calming. I like to diffuse it during my quiet times. Because, you know, Jesus had frankincense.
Lavender
- All things SKIN!!
- When I forget to apply sunscreen, lavender soothes my lobster-turned skin LOL!
- It can help with blemishes on my face. I prefer Frankincense for this, but lavender can work as well.
- After walking too much in the wrong shoes, lavender comforts my feet.
- All things SLEEP!
- I apply lavender to my feet at night to help me fall asleep.
- I diffuse lavender to create a peaceful atmosphere in my bedroom at night.
- This doesn’t come in the starter kit, but I love using the lavender body lotion at night on my hands.
Peppermint:
- BROWNIES!!!
- I add about three drops to a brownie mix to make peppermint brownies. Seriously so much yumminess!
- Diffusing It
- Just because the oil is a vitality oil doesn’t mean you can’t diffuse it like your other oils!
- I diffuse peppermint whenever I have head tension.
- I also diffuse it with lemon in the mornings to wake myself up.
- Bathroom Support
- LOL, is that a thing?
- I occasionally put one drop in the toilet if I’m having trouble going. That’s all I’m gonna say about that LOL.
Valor:
- Courage
- I put some on my wrists before my most stressful class to teach started. And then I would hold my wrists to my face and breathe deeply and inhale the scent and think “I can do this! I can teach these teenagers Spanish!” LOL!
- I diffused Valor the first evening that I moved into my apartment. I always feel nervous when sleeping in a new space and Valor gave me a boost of confidence.
- Skin Support!!!
- In March, I googled each of the ingredients of Valor with the phrase “skin support” afterward and was AMAZED at how amazing each of the oils that comprise this blend is for your skin.
- So now, Valor is a part of my daily morning skincare routine. I rub one drop all over my face and it makes my skin glow! :)
Grapefruit:
- Diffuse It
- Grapefruit has a sweet scent!
Lemon:
- Diffuse It
- Like I said earlier, I combine lemon with peppermint in the mornings to help wake myself up.
- I also like to diffuse this with Valor.
- Or by itself- creates a fresh, clean scent and can replace chemical-filled air fresheners.
- Sticky-Remover
- When I moved into my apartment, my kitchen closet doorknob had this sticky substance on it, almost like the previous resident’s child had chocolate on their hands when they opened the door. Yuck. I put lemon on a paper towel and rubbed it on the doorknob and it came right off!
Lime:
- Diffuse it
- I LOVE diffusing lime. My favorite way to diffuse it is combined with the Joy blend, but it is also great on its own!
- Add it to food
- Whenever I make homemade salsa, two-three drops of lime goes in it. When I make guacamole or avocado toast, I mix lime into it. Tastes SOOO good!
Tangerine:
- Diffuse it
- My favorite way to diffuse tangerine is combined with the Dragon Time blend, but it is also great on its own!
