Chemical Free Family

On April 7th, 2018, the Seedlings range was introduced to Europe, and was an immediate success.

It goes without saying that there are no nasty ingredients in any of Young Living's products, including the Seedlings range.  

The Seedlings range is formulated without chlorine, alcohol, sulfates, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, animal-derived ingredients, synthetic preservatives, synthetic fragrances, or synthetic dyes.

The launched products were the Baby Lotion (but more like a cream), the Baby Oil, the Diaper Cream and the Baby Wipes and we are awaiting the body and hair wash and all the Seedlings products have been developed for an infant’s delicate skin.  Although designed with babies in mind, the Seedlings range can be used by people of any age.  I am using the baby wipes as make up remover wipes, as my skin is so sensitive.

A special 'blend' of essential oils was created for the Seedlings range and it is called Calm.  Calm is a  blend of 

Seedlings Baby Oil offers a calming aroma to promote a relaxing environment—at bedtime or anytime.

Seedlings Baby Oil is diluted to a strength that is appropriate for your little one, and it is vegan friendly. You can keep the light, gentle scent of Seedlings (the Calm blend) with you and baby all day long.  The Baby Oil is in a non-greasy formula and absorbs smoothly into skin.  It moisturizes, soothes, and nourishes skin and is made with 100 percent plant-based, naturally derived ingredients.   The Baby oil contains 100 percent pure essential oils diluted in appropriate strength for baby’s delicate skin, is dermatologist tested and hypoallergenic and is Vegan friendly.

Baby Wipes - the key ingredients in the baby wipes are:  Apple fruit extract, Soapberry fruit extract, Aloe, Calendula extract, and Lavender essential oil.

A. Soapberry fruit is native to India. This fruit naturally contains saponins, a cleaning agent, and helps Seedlings Baby Wipes provide gentle and thorough cleansing that doesn’t irritate baby’s tender skin.

Baby Lotion - dry skin affects infants just like adults. Hot baths, dry air, irritants, and other factors can all leave your baby uncomfortable and fussy.

Combat the effects of dry skin and prevent future dryness with the Seedlings Baby Lotion. This non-greasy moisturizer supports moisture barrier function and smoothly absorbs into your baby’s delicate skin, leaving it moisturized, soft, and smooth.   I am using this product on myself too!  with my super sensitive skin I love this product with its gentle aroma and the fact I only need the tiniest amount - the tube will last me months. 

Keep little bottoms comfortable without using harsh chemicals that could irritate sensitive skin. With mild, gentle ingredients you can feel good about, the Diaper Rash Cream just may be the best diaper rash treatment you’ll try for your baby’s sensitive skin. 

Seedlings Diaper Rash Cream is made with 100 percent naturally derived ingredients, including 100 percent pure essential oils. This thick, Lavender-scented cream reduces the duration and severity of diaper rash when applied at the first sign of redness. It soothes on contact, protects your baby’s delicate skin, and acts as a physical barrier to wetness.

Seedlings Diaper Rash Cream can be used as a preventative measure before bed or anytime when exposure to wet diapers may be prolonged. The extra gentle, mild formula—developed specially for your infant’s tender skin—seals out wetness and helps balance skin moisture while reducing redness.

I really love this range and so happy we have it at last here in Europe.  The products are well priced and super concentrated so go a long way.  

Any, or all, of these products would make a fantastic gift to any expecting mum - or if, like me, you have really sensitive skin, get some for yourself! 

There has never been a better time to switch to chemical free products.  

At last the media are reporting, almost on a daily basis, about the huge problem of plastic in our oceans and the threat to wildlife and Governments and businesses are listening and acting - the Government are even talking about putting a levy on one-use plastic items and companies like Iceland are talking about being plastic free within a few years.  This is all great news, and although a bit late in the day to create mass public awareness to this huge problem - at least it is being addressed now.  

It is with this in mind that the next Young Living Day - on Saturday 7th April - is focusing on the Chemical Free Family.  

There are over 800 hosts all over Europe, so there is sure to be an event near you.  The event I am hosting will be in Jersey, Channel Islands and will be great fun.  There are lots of new products being launched with the theme Essential Oils in the Nursery, and there will also be a Dad’s Table and a chill out zone for mums.  There will be competitions with prizes for the kids, and the shop at Feathers Healing, where the event is being held, will be open! 

The whole emphasis of the Young Living Day will be on Chemical Free Families and I will have books for sale called The Chemical Free Home.

Recent research has shown that the air quality in our homes is worse than outside!  Many people have no idea about the dangers of synthetic candles, air fresheners, fabric softeners and cleaning materials in their homes – so my talk about how to gradually reduce these items from your home, office and car and replace them with clean, green and safe products, should be of interest to many. 

I look forward to seeing you on the 7th April, at Feathers Healing, St Saviour, Jersey, Channel Islands.
