It’s hard to sum up in a paragraph or even a whole blog post my thoughts and emotions surrounding Young Living’s 2016 Convention and the New Product Reveal.  I learned so much….from the chemistry of essential oils and why they work to how to use them for my pets, kids, emotional life, the guys in my life, etc. to all kinds of fun tips, tricks and recipes. My mind is still reeling and completely on overload.  But, while I am processing all the education I wanted to share all the new goodies that were announced.
Here is my video as I unboxed the entire collection of every. single. new. product.
Since I am a high “I” on the disc personality, or what other Young Living people affectionately refer to as a “blue” I may or may not have missed a few product highlights. Â So, let’s get y’all the lowdown!
Celebrate the Past.  Embrace the Present.  Create the Future.  This blend, created just for this year’s convention, is a collaboration of 9 essential oils: Orange, Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood, Nutmeg, Lime, Idaho Blue Spruce, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Ylang Ylang, Frankincense, Peppermint.  Each of these oils offers their own unique benefits, from aromatic to topical. Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood, for example, can enhance the appearance of healthy-looking skin, and Orange has a bright, energizing scent.  Orange and Lime also evoke playfulness and happy times, Sandalwood is empowering, Nutmeg Vitality supports the endocrine system and is energizing, Idaho Blue Spruce enhances masculine energy, Northern Lights Black Spruce to bring balance to masculine and feminine energy, Ylang Ylang for some passion and romance, Frankincense for tapping into the spiritual realm, and Peppermint to push the effect of it all!  Live Your Passion was formulated to support feelings of inspiration, confidence, and clarity, despite difficult times or circumstances. This blend reminds us to focus on the present and move past obstacles to build a new and better tomorrow.  Here is the Product Info Sheet.This is the product that I was the most excited to hear about and so far the thing I love best from the new product reveal.  If you have followed my journey at all, you already know why I need pain relief cream for my arthritis and pain issues in my joints and back.  This product is incredible because it has two active ingredients to provides pain-relieving benefits in two ways: methyl salicylate found in Wintergreen helps alleviate pain deep in the muscles and joints, and natural menthol found in Peppermint provides a cooling effect.  Here is the product info sheet.
Watch this incredible video:
I LOVE having a natural, plant-base over the counter (no prescription needed) solution to every day aches and pains.  This fast acting cream is not just for athletes, but for anyone over the age of 12, who needs relief from anything from a pulled muscles to help with their arthritis pain.Young Living’s Thieves® Cough Drops are formulated to help soothe sore throats, relieve coughs, and cool nasal passages.  Everyone gets irritated throats and that annoying cough during a year.  Who can’t benefit from a cough suppressant?  This is safe, natural and free of all the toxic ingredients you’d find in a comparable product. Read the product info here.
My favorite thing about the new Einkorn Rotini Pasta is that there are only TWO ingredients: Einkorn flour and water.  You can’t beat that!  Einkorn wheat is fascinating to study.  Einkorn’s genetic code has only 14 chromosomes, compared to modern wheat with its 42 chromosomes. Its unique genetics give einkorn a lower gluten content than modern varieties of wheat.  I love that it is non-GMO, has nothing artificial and is nutritious for you! Read the product info here. Â
Because one Einkorn product wasn’t enough, there is now also Einkorn Granola.  Oh my stars. They were giving out samples of this and it was so yummy.  I have enjoyed it in my yogurt since being home.  All too often, cereals or on-the-go snacks are filled with refined sugars, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, and artificial flavors. Instead of including these overly processed ingredients, Gary’s True Grit Einkorn Granola is sweetened by the combination of wolfberries, cranberries, cacao nibs, and coconut sugar. These sweet hints are balanced by hearty sunflower seeds, almonds, walnuts, and pecans, with just the right amount of sea salt. The product info sheet can be found here.
Chocolate-Coated Wolfberry Crisp Bars. I love this vegetarian-friendly, chocolate covered bar (now with 70% less sugar!) that remains a great source of protein and provides energy and nutrition. 120 calories, 16 carbs, 6 Protein and 4 Fiber, and it tastes incredible!  If you want to read more, here is where you can access the product info page.
This new shake is a complete meal replacement shake, combining the best of Balance Complete and PowerMeal, and comes in a convenient single-serve packets I love that it is Vegan.  It has individual envelopes which makes it so easy to carry with you.  I got to try this at the Expo during Convention and the recipe they served was delicious. If you are not familiar with Pea Protein, it can be gritty if you do not blend it well.  This is an incredible way to get protein and fiber, and it includes a fruit and vegetable blend that provides essential vitamins and minerals that many meal replacement options don’t offer.  You can get creative and add your own fruits or ingredients to make your own fun shakes!  Read the product info page here.
This is an all natural fat-burning product featuring a proprietary citrus extract blend, utilizing including sweet orange, blood orange, and grapefruit, four citral-dense essential oils: Ocotea, Cassia, Peppermint, and Fennel, cinnamon powder, bitter orange extract, feungreek seed, ocotea leaf extract, and a customized blend of enzymes.  So how this works.  You get a dual packet.  The morning packet has 2 power capsules.  Then at 3pm you take the supplement one.  If you miss the morning, you can take both packets at 3pm.  Drink 8oz of water with them.  And check out this list of benefits: Formulated with ingredients to help burn fat.* Supports a healthy metabolism.* Unique formula features plant-based extracts that help support healthy weight management and healthy energy levels.*  Slique CitraSlim is designed to be part of a healthy weight-management system when used in conjunction with other Young Living Slique products.* Formulated with a proprietary citrus fruit-based blend, which may help support the body in burning excess fat when used in conjunction with a healthy-weight management plan.* May help support the breakdown of triglycerides that are stored in the body’s fat tissue.*  May support the release of free fatty acids that help break down fat and help to produce additional energy.*  Access the product info page here to learn more.
What’s incredible though is how Young Living has expanded the Slique in 60 program. Â If you use these products for 60 consecutive days, and you don’t feel better, you will get the entire product value back on your account!
Agilese supports cartilage and joint function and will be replacing Young Living’s BLM product. Frankincense, Tumeric, Collagen, Wintergreen, Copaiba, Northern Light Black Spruce and Clove make this a powerful supplement.  You only need 2 small capsules daily, compared to other similar products which would require 4 more.  Our joints are often the first to feel the signs of aging, and so even people not active need support to keep living the life you love!  Read more about it on the product info page.
The Animal Scents Dental Pet Chews works to maintain great pet dental health. Â Clean your dog’s teeth, refresh their mouth, support their digestion all with a natural, safe treat they will love! Â You can find the product info here.
Powergize is amazing because it is specially formulated to help men of all ages boost stamina and performance.* With botanicals from around the world, PowerGize helps sustain energy levels, strength, mental and physical vibrancy, and vitality when used in addition to physical activity.  Moreover, PowerGize is also formulated with KSM-66, a premium ashwagandha root extract, which is touted for its properties that support immunity, mental clarity, concentration, and alertness.*  Although formulated for me, women can take it too!!  If you are physically active, or just wanting to up your game if you are needing some support with energy and stamina, this new supplement might be perfect for you.  If you are wanting to learn even more, you can find the product info here.
This is my second favorite new product reveal.  I was hoping so much that Young Living would offer this and here it is – Dishwashing Detergent!  Every Thieves product we have in our home is incredible.  We love having safe, plant-based, natural products from toothpaste to laundry soap, so we are so excited to now being using the Dishwasher Powder in our dishwasher. The powder will remove stains, dried-on food, soap scum, dust, dirt, and other contaminants, deodorize and neutralize odors, and leave dishes sparking clean!  If you have soft water you will only need 1/2 scoop to 1 scoop, but if you need hard water you will likely need 2 scoops per load.  The bag holds 30 scoops.  If you still want to know more, you can read the product info page here.
While Zyng is not new, this rebrand is new and the news that they are lowering the price of the product!! Â I have been drinking these most mornings in place of coffee because it does have 35mg of naturally occurring caffeine without the jittery feeling and without the crash and burn that an energy drink would give you.
The Select 30 Oil Collection is a great way to get tons of oils.  If you do the math – it’s roughly $12.50 per bottle, AND it includes labels AND the super cute carrying case. You can actually already order it on ER – and so if you are at 20% cash back this is an incredible deal because you would be getting an additional $75 cash back!  The Select 30 Oil Collection includes: 15 Essential Oil Singles (5-ml): Cedarwood, Cinnamon Bark Vitalityâ„¢, Clove Vitality, Copaiba Vitality, Eucalyptus Globulus, Frankincense Vitality, Grapefruit Vitality, Lavender Vitality, Lemon Vitality, Lemongrass Vitality, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Orange Vitality, Oregano Vitality, Peppermint Vitality, Tea Tree  and 15 Essential Oil Blends (5-ml): Abundanceâ„¢, AromaEaseâ„¢, Citrus Freshâ„¢ Vitality, Deep Reliefâ„¢, DiGizeâ„¢ Vitality, EndoFlexâ„¢ Vitality, En-R-Geeâ„¢, ImmuPowerâ„¢, Melroseâ„¢, PanAway®, Purification®, R.C.â„¢, Sacred Mountainâ„¢, Stress Awayâ„¢, Thieves® Vitality.  Here is where you can access the product info page.
The Core Vitality Case is an awesome handy bag.  (I didn’t know all the ways it was awesome when I made my video! 🙂 ) But this bag is very high quality, with Young Living embroidered on it.  It comes with a great way to fill your capsules for taking your vitality oils.  It also holds three 5ml oil bottles and then the coolest part is the cute supplement container it comes with, labeled by day, so that you can portion out your supplements for the week ahead of time, including extra veggie capsules. On the outside is a zipper pocket that you could stick some of your Slique Citraslim or Shake packets or anything else that you would just want to tuck in the outside without having to unzip the whole case. This is the answer to my disorganized, chaotic self!  The essential oil bottle organizer can hold 22 bottles of oil.  You can position these side by side, lay flat or stack on top in a multi-tier fashion like the graphic below. And it’s priced to be crazy affordable to make an easy way to store your oils to find them. You can read the product info page here
The Dalmatia Oil Collection brings together three luxurious oils, including Dalmatia Bay Laurel, Dalmatia Juniper, and Dalmatia Sage, bring the earthy and aromatic scents of the Mediterranean to your home. The Dalmatia Juniper is a different species (Juniperus oxycedrus) from our regularly offered Juniper (Juniperus osteosperma), although the Dalmatia Sage (Salvia officinalis) and Dalmatia Bay Laurel (Laurus nobilis) are the same species as current Young Living oils, but all three of the oils in this collection are distilled at our new Dalmatia Aromatic Farm. What I love about this collection is that Young Living has committed to donating $10 from the sale of every Dalmatia Aromatic Oil Collection to the Maestral Orphanage in Croatia.  You can read the product info page here.

I am looking forward to trying the Live Your Passion bkend and the Einkorn Rotini.
I love the way the Live Your Passion smells!
I am most looking forward to trying the Thieves dishwasher powder.
I really, really like it!
I can’t wait to try to Cool Azul pain relief cream. I use bio freeze religiously and would love to find a better alternative.
The pain relief cream is INCREDIBLE!
Wow!! A lot of new and cool items!!! I want the Cool Azul pain cream for my hubby. I want the dishwasher detergent, cough drops and organizing trays and/or cases. I have YL oil bottles everywhere!!! I also want the Zyng energy drinks – I do ER and I’m at 20% so I’ll be checking Zyng out for sure!!! Thanks for the awesome blog!!!
<3 I love, love Zyng. So excited about the lowered price point. I do love the pain cream. It feels incredible on my body.
Monica – you are the winner! You have until Monday to contact me with your address!! 🙂
I just ordered AgileEase and the Dishwashing Detergent. Can’t wait to get them! I am so excited for so much. I can’t wait to try the new pain relief cream, and I really want the new stand for my oils. So much great stuff. Thank you for the giveaway!!
Thank you for participating! I, too, am so excited about so many of the goodies. For sure the pain relief cream is awesomesauce.
Amazing products thank you for sharing. I just ordered on my ER the Slique CitraSlim supplements and would love to pair then with the Slique Shakes and see the effects it has on my body. So excited to try them together 🙂
I’m wanting to start these two products, too. I plan to start as soon as we are done with our make and take classes!
Really wanting to try the Zyng and the Pain cream! Even though the Zyng came out last year, I still haven’t tried it.
PAIN CREAM! Although, the Zyng is life changing, too! <3
I can’t wait to try the Cool Azul Cream. Being of a “certain age” and having a husband with back and joint pain makes this a “must have.” We’ve been using the gel, but i love the idea of rubbing a cream onto those aching joints.
I really love the new pain cream. But you might really like the new Agilease. It was created for exactly what you have described. It is for people who need support with healthy joints, especially as they are getting older or if they are inclined to lots of exercise. Might be worth looking into!!
Thanks for the info- very informative!
Really have my eyes on agilease! Can’t wait to try it! Thanks for the awesome & super informative blog!!
You are sweet. <3 I'm also super excited about agilease
Definately want to try the Slique shakes and the Agilize.
You’re so generous Mickey! I am so excited about all the new products being released their are quite a few on my list to try. I would be happy to win any of them.
Thanks. I love giveaways. 🙂 I know you are excited about the Powergize. 🙂
Super helpful blog; thank you!!! And generous offer … can’t wait to try any of these. Live Your Passion might be at the top of the list!
Thanks so much!! I love the blend myself.
This was the best convention release of new products ever!! EVER!! I’m excited to try the Agilease, the Cool Azul Pain Cream, and the dishwasher powder. My sponsor brought me home a bottle of Live Your Passion and I am in love with that. Thanks for this wonderful description of all the new products!
Wow what a gift to have that oil; I love the aroma! I love all the products you want to still try. I highly recommended them all.
I want to try the slique shakes. I’m really bad at eating breakfast and don’t usually end up eating anything until after noon. By then I’m tired, cranky and have no energy.
I’m about to try all the Slique products myself. Really want to shave a few inches off my middle.
I’m excited to try Agilease and the couch drops. But I’ve been taking my Ningxia religiously and haven’t needed cough drops in a long time!
The cough drops are amazing!!
Wow! I had heard that a lot of new things were revealed at convention, but… WOW!! I think I would be most excited to try the Einkorn Granola. We’ve been on a health kick lately and just can’t find a granola that we love that isn’t full of unnecessary ingredients. But I also would like to get Powergize for my wonderful hubby who is super active and still “on the fence” about oils. Hehe!!
The granola is really, really good. I’m super impressed. I do think the powergize will be great for the many men who feel like your husband.
I am most curious about the thieves dishwasher soap. Lots of new products! So exciting!
It works incredibly well. I’ve been super impressed. After years of DIY, this makes my life easy.
Agilease for sure would be what I woul be most excited to try.
I’m sure you would love this. I’ve got one coming in my July order!
The dishwasher detergent is at the top of my list followed by the new granola.
I might just give you some to hear you opine on it. 🙂
Thanks for all the great info. I’m interested in trying the slique citraslim. Would love to try it out and see some results!
You are so welcome! <3 I would love to see results from using it, too!
The winner is Monica. I have no idea how to upload the screen shot I have from random name picker bit that’s what came up!
