Next week we’ll be in sunny Mexico for a much needed family getaway! This will be our first big vacation as a family since we went to Mexico 4 years ago. We’ve done a lot of camping but the farthest has been a 3.5 hour drive. This will be Timothy’s first time on an airplane! Traveling as a family can be stressful, add in a pandemic and this mama is in full on freak out mode. That is why I will have my oils with me! On the plane, at the hotel, at the pool, on the beach, you name it!
I can’t stop thinking about 10 glorious days in the heat. That is why I put together this handy printable of all the Young Living oils, personal care products and more that I’ll be packing. I plan on checking things off the list so I don’t forget anything! There’s even a link for you to download it as well!

I’ve been thinking about only the must haves and this is what is on my list so far. Oils for sleep, digestion, and emotions big and small:
- Lavender
- Cedarwood
- Orange
- Endoflex
- Peace & Calming
- Seedlings Calm
- White Angelica
- Ylang Ylang
- Lemon Vitality (to make the bottled water taste better)
- Digize (all the Mexican food!)
The Sweet Aroma Diffuser is the perfect travel size! All 4 of us will be sharing one bedroom so this small size diffuser will be perfect for lulling us all the sleep.
A must have with a fair skinned red-head! Plus it’s chemical free and sweat & water resistant.
If you haven’t tried this yet, girrrlll what?! It smells like a beach vacation and is super moisturizing, perfect for after a long day in the sun.
Thieves Hand Sanitizer/Thieves Spray
Did I mention we are traveling during a global pandemic. Thieves all the things! I plan on having bottles of each of these in my diaper bag for the plane and an extra in my luggage. Thieves Hand Sanitizer smells like peppermint and is not drying like most hand sanitizers. Thieves Spray is extra powerful and smells like Christmas! A spritz on the airplane seats and tray tables and I’ll be feeling easy. A quick spray on our masks for extra immune support? You bet!
This is my ultimate tummy saver. Life 9 is high-potency probiotic that combines 17 billion live cultures. It promotes healthy digestion, supports gut health, and helps maintain normal intestinal function for overall support of a healthy immune system. Tummy support is always needed while traveling, especially when trying new foods.
Easy button! The Bon Voyage Travel Pack is 10 Young Living personal care items in a cute travel bag. Shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste and tooth brush, shower gel, moisturizer and more!
Honestly I just don’t want to share my Bon Voyage travel pack so I’m bringing these for the kids! They both will enjoy a bubble bath after a long day at the pool.
This spray is made with Lavender, Northern Lights Black Spruce, and Helichrysum to gently support healthy-looking skin. It’s mild enough for the whole family to use after hours in the sun for hydrating and soothing the skin.
This one is for my husband. The guy who always gets too much sun on the first day! Using menthol from mint, this spray soothes and cools the skin, providing immediate relief. Plus, its moisturizing! Aloe, Lavender essential oil, and Helichrysum essential oil—also help prevent peeling and leave skin feeling soft and smooth instead of tacky or sticky.
The Bon Voyage pack comes with a little Art Light Moisturizer but I don’t think it’ll be enough for using twice a day for 10 days. In the mornings and before we hit the beach I’ll add a drop or two of Carrot Seed oil for a natural SPF 38! This is my favorite moisturizer because it is not heavy or greasy.
Savvy Makeup
I’m only taking the bare essentials when it comes to makeup. My powder foundation, concealer, Natural Quartz eye shadow palette, Multitasker, volumizing mascara and my favorite lip gloss in Abundant.
These are so luxurious! They are the only wipes I’ve ever liked on my face. They are gentle and they work great, plus they smell like roses! Did I mention they are biodegradable and plant-based?
To help my makeup stay put in the heat of course. I love how this spray makes my powder foundation more buildable as well.
Again with the easy button. These premade rollers are perfect for throwing in my diaper bag for the plane. Stress Away, Peace & Calming, Tranquil and of course Thieves are all making the trip with us!
These prediluted oils for littles ones are a favorite with my kids. We can’t leave without our Sleepyize, Owie, Tummygize and Snifflease (just in case!).
Balanced hormones are a must when traveling with kids under 6, am i right?!
There you have it! A complete list of the Young Living oils and personal care products that I’m taking on our family vacation to Mexico. I love how these products support our bodies and emotions without the use of chemicals, synthetic fragrances and fillers. Just pure, thoughtful products for the entire family.
