I have taken a hiatus from new posts and have been expanding my knowledge in areas around body care, youthing (anti-aging) techniques, Tantra, and more. I’ve been really busy with getting a bodywork practice going…
Here is a listing of my very favorite body care products, with links to great suppliers. All of the products listed, I either have or use regularly. Of course, with everything, you have to figure out what works best for you! I’ve been developing this list for years now. But, it is a great place to share some really powerful + potent skin care magic.
If you scroll down, you will see the following sections with product listings: favorite skin care, hair care, essential oils, and food / herbs / supplements for skin. Under the headings, I’ve further organized where possible (types of skin care). These are all affiliate links, which means that I partner with the supplier and get a small commission if you purchase through the links. This is one way the energy I put into this site comes back to me, so it would be a gift and blessing if you purchase through these links. Thank you.

OUR STORY
My inspiration for creating this site comes from my personal experience with caring for my body using the gifts of our planet. By using ingredients from nature such as clays, oils, herbs, and minerals, I was deepening my relationship with the earth which we are always connected to.
Additionally, skin care and beauty has always been a hobby and passion of mine and I love experimenting with new facials, new oils, and blending together what I’ve learned to figure out the plan that works best for me. I’ve also struggled with severe acne as a teenager and wish I had known then what I know now. Alas, at least I am informed on what to use for scarring.
Along with the School of Hard knocks, I’ve formally studied herbalism, biology, chemistry, permaculture, Kundalini yoga, and tai chi.
I’ve obtained a B.Sc. in Environmental Science / Chemistry and a M.Sc. in Sustainable Systems, Herbal Certification, and Reiki level 1 attunement.
My experience is strong in natural skin care, magical traditions, and self-growth and transformation. I had a handcrafted natural skin care line that I built from the ground up and have studied, experimented, and practiced herbalism and natural skin care for years.
PASSION AND PURPOSE
I see so many people struggling with skin or hair issues and much of that comes from what they are using to care for themselves. It’s exciting to pass on information about natural ways and methods for skin and hair as often times the issues stem from synthetics that are loaded into commercial products.
Going natural is best for health AND beauty. Let’s get healthier together!
Peace + blessings,
Michelle
