What is Young Living's Owie
Owie is an essential oil blend carefully formulated by Young Living, part of its KidScents line, designed to offer comfort and relief to the skin. Its composition is crafted to be gentle and effective, ideal for specific moments when the skin of adults and children needs a comforting touch. This blend combines a selection of oils known for their soothing and skin-regenerating properties.
Key Ingredients and Aromatic Composition
Young Living's Owie blend is distinguished by its synergy of powerful essential oils, each contributing its unique properties for skin care. While the exact formula is proprietary to the brand, it typically includes oils such as:
- Helichrysum (Helichrysum italicum): Valued for its attributes that support skin regeneration and its ability to soothe irritation. Its aroma is herbaceous, warm, and sweet, with honey notes.
- Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea): Known for its fresh, woody, and slightly sweet fragrance, and its properties that may contribute to skin wellness.
- Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens): Provides a fresh, woody aroma and is valued for its potential to support healthy circulation and skin appearance.
- Tea Tree (Melaleuca alternifolia): Famous for its renowned purifying and cleansing properties for the skin, with a fresh, medicinal, earthy aroma.
- Copaiba (Copaifera officinalis): This South American oil has a soft, balsamic aroma. It is valued for its potential to help comfort and soothe.
- Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia): A classic in skin care for its calming, restorative properties and its floral, sweet, and herbaceous aroma.
This combination results in a fresh, slightly herbaceous, and comforting aromatic profile, with sweet and balsamic undertones, making it pleasant for topical use.
Benefits and Uses in Skin Care
Owie is formulated to be an ally in the aromatherapy kit for skin care. Its main potential uses and benefits include:
- Skin comfort: Offers a feeling of relief and calm to skin areas that need extra care.
- Recovery support: Contributes to a sense of skin well-being when irritated or after minor daily incidents.
- Promotes healthy skin appearance: Helps keep skin looking and feeling healthy thanks to the properties of its components.

Application Method
Young Living's Owie blend is designed for topical use. It is recommended to:
- Direct application: Dilute one drop of Owie with four drops of Young Living V-6™ Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex or any other carrier oil. Gently apply to the desired skin area.
- Gentle massage: For larger areas, apply the diluted blend with a light circular massage until absorbed.
- Patch test: Before applying to a large area, perform a patch test on a small area of the skin to ensure good tolerance.
Its use is advised as needed to provide prompt skin care.
Synergies and Combinations
Owie can be combined with other products and essential oils to enhance its effects or to create comprehensive care routines:
- With carrier oils: Always dilute with carrier oils such as Young Living's V-6™ Enhanced Vegetable Oil Complex, fractionated coconut oil, or sweet almond oil for safe and effective application, especially on sensitive skin.
- With Lavender or Roman Chamomile: For an even more calming and restorative effect, one drop of Lavender or Roman Chamomile could be added to the diluted blend before application.
- As part of a balm: It can be incorporated into the preparation of homemade balms or creams for topical care.
Precautions
Before using Owie or any other essential oil, it is important to take the following precautions:
- For external use only.
- Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with a vegetable oil (not water).
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Perform a skin sensitivity test on a small area of the skin before more general use, especially on sensitive skin.
- Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
- Avoid direct sun exposure or UV rays for at least 12 hours after applying the product to exposed areas, as some components may increase skin sensitivity to light.
- Store in a cool, dark place, away from direct light and heat sources.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Owie on young children?
Yes, Owie is part of Young Living's KidScents line, formulated with children in mind. However, appropriate dilution with a carrier oil (such as Young Living's V-6 Complex) is always recommended, at a ratio of 1 drop of Owie to 4 drops of carrier oil before applying to children's skin. Always perform a patch test on a small area of the skin first.
What should I do if Owie gets in my eyes?
If Owie comes into contact with the eyes, do not use water to rinse. Instead, apply a generous amount of a pure vegetable oil (such as coconut oil, olive oil, or Young Living's V-6 Complex) around the eye to dilute the essential oil and reduce any irritation.
Is Owie photosensitizing?
Some citrus essential oils are known to be photosensitizing. While Owie does not predominantly contain citrus oils, it is always good practice to avoid direct sun exposure or UV rays in areas where the product has been applied for at least 12 hours, especially if you have sensitive skin. Consult the composition if you have doubts.
Can Owie be ingested?
Owie is a blend formulated exclusively for topical use. Young Living has a specific range of Plus oils for internal use. For safety, ingestion of Owie is not recommended.
