I Never Thought I'd Quit Young Living—Until I Found Something Better 

🍃 Written by Tessa Farley, former Young Living enthusiast

I never thought I'd leave, but when I found that I could get the same 100% pure certified essential oils for 1/3 the price, I realized I wasn’t paying for quality—I was paying for the brand. Simply Earth gave me everything I loved without the guilt or the markup.

Some of you may know I was a Young Living® LOVER. I used their oils every day with my kids, and I loved talking about them with friends. The most important thing is I think they are AMAZING quality, but I want you to know why I decided to leave them and to tell you what company I use now.

1. I Found the Same Pure Oils for 60% Less

When I saw how much I was spending on oils, I had to stop and ask: What exactly am I paying for? A 15mL bottle of Bergamot from Young Living costs $40.79. The same size from Simply Earth? Just $16.99—with the same GC/MS testing and quality standards. My oils didn’t change. Just the price. And my bank account? So relieved.

2. I Was Blown Away by the Origins of These Oils

One thing that always bugged me was how little I actually knew about where my oils came from. With Simply Earth, that changed completely. They’re transparent about their sourcing and they partner directly with ethical farms around the world. Every oil has a story and they share it—where it's grown, how it’s harvested, and why it’s effective. Simply Earth travels around the world to visit these farms to ensure transparency. Seeing their commitment to quality and sustainable relationships with farmers made me trust them more than any brand I’d used before. I love knowing that every drop in my diffuser started in the hands of someone who cares.

3. Learning Shouldn’t Come With a Sales Pitch

When I was with my old brand, I often felt like I had to buy something just to be included—whether it was an online class, a workshop, or even access to tips and recipes. Simply Earth changed all that. With their monthly Recipe Box, I get everything I need to learn new skills—like making my own cleaning products, rollers, or beauty items—delivered to my door. Plus, their Essential Oil Hero Course walks me through safety, usage, and blending techniques in a way that’s fun and easy to follow. It feels like learning from a friend, not a salesperson.

4. They Kept My Favorites—and Gave Me New Ones to Love

I was nervous to switch at first because I had my go-to blends—ones I used every day and didn’t want to give up. But to my surprise, Simply Earth had versions of the same favorites I loved, and they smelled just as amazing. Even better, they introduced me to new blends I didn’t even know I needed. Now I’ve got a wider variety of oils on hand, and I’m constantly inspired by the recipes and uses they include with each box. My oil routine hasn’t just continued—it’s gotten better.

5. Giving Back Is Just One More Reason I Love Them

At first, I was drawn to Simply Earth for the price and purity, but what truly sealed the deal for me was their heart. Simply Earth donates 13% of profits to organizations that fight human trafficking—a cause I care deeply about. It’s more than just a feel-good footnote. It’s woven into everything they do. When I shop with them, I know my purchase is making a real impact on someone’s life. It feels good to be part of something that’s doing good in the world—not just selling a product, but standing for something bigger.

"I've been involed with Young Living a few years. Had to buy a kit to "get in" now that is not required. Rules keep changing required minimum and very pricey. I'm working through stopping but got the run around to just cancel the monthly order and by the time I was done, I was in tears and beyong frustrated.

I like the no nonsense open buying available to ayone and anyone can afford options Simply Earth has to offer so far."

"I used Young Living oils forever till my sister researched Simply Eearth oils. I decided to try them out and BO Be Gone was one of my first oils. I fall in love with it and diffuse it every day. It is better than Young Living oils in my opinion."
