Witch weather is in the air. That fleeting moment

Witch weather is in the air. That fleeting moment that in a gust of wind or in the rumbling sky or at the forest’s foggy edge where suddenly, you feel different. A restlessness, a sense of longing for a place that does not exist. I don’t know if anyone else has felt that electric tense changing of that moment - it calls the magic to your skin and stirs something nostalgic in your soul. ⁣
⁣
For a moment, you feel ancient, powerful.. lonely.. as if you forgot something important. This is witch weather at work. For some reason, in that wild instant, you remember you’re alive, that change is coming - let you’ve been here before, and some part of you belongs to the everlasting… something bigger outside of yourself that’s familiar yet elusive. A feeling of being connected to the earth that sweeps you up in its vastness. ⁣
⁣
Witch weather is in full force today as I move about my day. Perhaps it’s the time of year (that’s definitely a big part of it), perhaps it’s the reminder that another year has passed (as my beloved turns another year older today - happy birthday Tim!), perhaps it’s something more.⁣
⁣
Either way, I’m paying attention. ⁣
⁣
Much love to my fellow witchy women 💫 ⁣
⁣
P.s. I had planned to release our Lunar Magic Eyeshadow Palette on the full moon but it just felt right to release it today. If you’re looking for a spellbinding palette to match that witch weather mood, it’s available in the shop now.⁣

If you battle congestion, dehydration, acne, black

If you battle congestion, dehydration, acne, blackheads, or textured skin on a regular basis, counteracting autumns effects will require the help of something special to give dead skin cells their ticket off your face 👋 . ⁣
⁣
🌱 A targeted AHA product is the special helper that will turn things around. 🌱 ⁣
⁣
AHAs are amazing in a clean skincare routine because not only are they plant-based, but they are so much more gentle than their traditional counterpart, BHAs.⁣
⁣
So, when it’s time to get rid of a buildup of skin cells ✌️, like when autumn rolls into town, AHAs can be the ingredient that your routine needs to get the job done.⁣
⁣
To get a quick dose of AHAs to help break down problem causing buildup, reach for a leave-on enzyme-infused facial toner (like our Congestion Protection AHA Mist) or a night time (overnight) mask treatment (like our 🎃 Pumpkin Enzyme Mask).⁣

Autumn skincare can get overlooked as “a thing” but as a transition season between summer and winter, autumn can give our skin a tough time adjusting without the right support.⁣
⁣
While most think of summer as the season that brings on breakouts the heaviest, autumn isn’t far behind! And for some, can even worse than the summer!⁣
⁣
𝑾𝒉𝒚? ⁣
⁣
Because all the 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐨𝐢𝐥 pumping action our skin experiences during the summer months hasn’t slowed down. Yet, there’s an added twist that we don’t see during the summer – the cooler weather and drier air have our skin developing a 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝-𝐮𝐩 of dead skin cells.⁣
⁣
This buildup interferes with the oil getting to the surface of our skin unobstructed. ⁣
⁣
Obstructed oil means oil that either it doesn’t reach the surface at all (gets trapped in our pores!) or it’s seriously slowed down, creating congestion. ⁣
⁣
And bacteria will come running when oil starts collecting in pores 🦠. Alas, the perfect conditions for acne are created!⁣
⁣
𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕’𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕? ⁣
⁣
The solution is multi-faceted – slow down oil production, and remove the buildup of dead skin cells. ⁣
⁣

Under eye circles are full effect over here 🙈.

Under eye circles are full effect over here 🙈. The combination of my auto immune disorder coming out of remission, being deeply tired after uprooting our lives to plant our roots in more nourishing soil, and well… everything else that comes along with being human 😅, all added up to me finally honouring all the requests for us to bring back our Bright Eyed Beauty under eye concealer (a pink colour corrector for dark circles). ⁣
⁣
Thank you to radiantly beautiful Karla for modeling for this picture (a photo that our beloved Echo took).⁣
⁣
You’ll find our natural under eye concealer & colour corrector in the online shop now (under the mineral makeup section). ⁣
⁣
Take care of yourselves radiant rebels, there’s only one you! ⁣

It’s free shipping day! Did you know we celebrate each autumn equinox by having a free shipping day? 🍂🎃🍂⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Did you also know the other way I celebrate is by eating apple pie 🍎 🥧 , drinking coffee with pumpkin spice creamer, and wearing my coziest sweater? 😆 ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Yup - I go into full fall mode (not that I needed any help with that) while I pack up orders. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Now I need an autumn equinox playlist! 🎶 Any suggestions for what songs I should add to it? ⁣⁣
