How Ordering Works

Welcome! We’re so glad you're here! 🇿🇦

If you’ve tried ordering Young Living products to South Africa lately and thought,
“Why is this so complicated?”, you’re not alone!

Because Young Living South Africa currently operates as a Not For Resale Market (NFR), ordering directly through the official site can feel clunky, confusing, and pricey.

Hello Essentials South Africa exists to make things easier for you...

Here’s how it works... we promise, it’s simple!


🌿 Step 1: Browse & build your order

Browse our site and add your favorite products to your cart — just like a normal online shop. Don't see the product you want? Just ask, we may be able to get it for you. The full catalogue isn't listed here.

Quick pricing note:
Prices are shown in South African Rand for convenience. Final totals are confirmed in USD at the time your Young Living order is processed.


✍️ Step 2: Submit your order (no payment yet)

When you’re ready, you’ll submit your order through checkout.

✔ No credit card required
✔ No payment collected here
✔ No surprise charges

Think of this step as raising your hand and saying:
“Yes please — I’d like these products!”


🤍 Step 3: We handle the Young Living part

We carefully review your order and submit it directly to Young Living on your behalf using their official ordering system.

This helps ensure:

  • Correct pricing

  • Product availability

  • Proper processing for South Africa orders

If anything needs clarification, we’ll reach out before confirming the order.


💳 Step 4: Final totals & payment

Once your Young Living order is confirmed, you’ll receive final pricing and payment instructions separately.

Because exchange rates, shipping, duties, and promotions can change, this step ensures everything is accurate before payment.


📦 Step 5: Shipping & delivery

Your products are fulfilled and shipped directly by Young Living, according to their current South Africa NFR process which includes all taxes, duties and customs. You will owe no additional amounts.

You’ll receive shipping and delivery updates from Young Living once your order is on its way.
