This powerful reformulation also contains frankincense, coriander, bergamot, geranium, and Idaho balsam fir—each included with the sole purpose of elevating life. With three of the seven oils found in the new reformulation coming directly from Young Living farms in Idaho and Ecuador, Believe (Item No. 4661) is truly a unique and exclusively Young Living blend.

Restore Your Smile
Congratulations to the following distributors on their recent leadership rank advancements:
Name
Believe
A BEAUTIFUL SMILE is not only about having straight, bright-white teeth; it’s also about having healthy gums. Gums play an important role in maintaining a youthful appearance, but if not taken care of, your gums can become plagued by disease that can cause bone loss and tooth decay—a situation that would age anyone. One of the most critical steps in preventing gum problems is flossing. When you don’t floss, bacteria build up quickly. To make this crucial activity more convenient and more effective, Young Living created Thieves® Dental Floss, a refreshing floss based on the strength of our essential oil blend that includes clove, eucalyptus, and cinnamon, in addition to other valuable essential oils. Use Thieves Dental Floss regularly after brushing your teeth with one of Young Living’s Thieves toothpastes and rinsing your mouth with Fresh Essence Plus Mouthwash. Below are some tips that may help promote a healthy mouth and a happy smile: 1. Add 1–2 drops of myrrh oil to your toothpaste to promote healthier gums. 2. Add 1–2 drops of lemon oil to your toothpaste to help promote a brighter smile. 3. To dull tooth pain or sensitivity, add 1 drop of clove oil to a cotton swab and gently massage onto the gum above the tooth.
