How To Use Oils
You can access the power of how to use oils in many ways. These methods bring the pure essence of health-promoting botanicals to your home, family, and life. Essential oils have enhanced lives for thousands of years, offering a variety of benefits from cosmetic and dietary purposes to spiritual and religious use. Young Living Essential Oils has always been at the forefront of bringing this ancient tradition to modern users, introducing millions to emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness that can be truly life-changing.
The Most Common “How to Use Oils” Practices include:
Extracted through careful steam distillation, resin tapping, and cold pressing, the purest essential oils are far more powerful than the botanicals from which they come. Any time you hold a bottle of Young Living’s powerful essential oils, you hold nature’s pure essence.
How to Use Oils – Inhaling essential oils heightens the senses and can trigger numerous desired responses in the body.
Follow these guidelines when using essential oils for inhalation:
- Inhale directly—simply smell them. Inhaling the oils opens up your senses. Inhaling oils can be calming and relaxing.
How to Use Oils – Aromatic Diffusing

Diffuse the oils using a diffuser, which disperses the oil in a micro-fine vapor into the air. The diffuser will not heat the oils, thus ensuring full benefits, as extreme heat can damage important constituents in the oil.
Use a humidifier. Put a tissue or small cloth, sprinkled with a few drops of oil, in front of the escaping steam. (Do not put essential oil in your humidifier. It will float on top of the water instead of rising with the water vapor and may cause damage to your humidifier.)
Carefully pour hot water into a bowl and add a few drops of essential oil. Cover your head and bowl in a tent-like fashion with a towel. Breathe deeply and slowly.
How to Use Oils – Topical Application
The topical application of many essential oils is safe. It can offer an enjoyable, relaxing experience. Who doesn’t love a foot rub? Plus the extra energy from the essential oils is so calming.
For topical application, follow these simple steps:
- Carefully tip the oil bottle and place 2-3 drops in the palm of your hand or directly on the desired application area.
- If dropping oil in your hand, rub palms together in a circular motion and then massage oil onto the desired point of application. If applying directly to the desired area, use your hand to massage the oil in a circular motion into the skin. Repeat if desired.
- Caution: Essential oils are very potent and some may be irritating to the skin. If irritation occurs, immediately apply a “carrier oil”. We offer a pure vegetable oil such as V-6™ Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex. Apply to the area to dilute. Please read label directions for each individual oil before using it.
How to Use Oils – Dietary Internal Consumption
Many essential oils make excellent food flavorings or dietary supplements. To use essential oils for internal consumption, Young Living suggests these methods:
- Place several drops of oil into an empty capsule and swallow the capsule with water.
- Add 1–2 drops to a glass of water or rice milk.
- Put 1–2 drops onto a piece of bread or add to your meals when cooking.
- Add 1–2 drops onto a teaspoon of Honey and swallow.
- Drop directly onto the tongue and swallow. Exercise extreme caution when using this method. Many essential oils are potent and should be tested by pouring a single drop onto a spoon and tasting a small portion to determine the amount of oil to be used.
