Oil Cleanse is for virtually everyone!

Benefits include removal of the makeup and dirt off your face (oil pulls the oils off your face while moisturizing), delivery of vitamins and antioxidants to your skin, and balancing the PH level of your skin.

I have been doing this during the dry winter and humid spring in the Northeast, and my skin glows.

Beauty Serum

1-2 tablespoons carrier oil of choice (I used Avocado Oil for it's high oleic acid content to support healing in the summer months).

3 drops Frankincense (not used in the video... my order didn't come in time!)

2 drops Myrrh

1 drop Rose (Did not have this on hand today, so not used in the video.)

1 drop Patchouli

1 drop Helichrysum

Mix together gently and add to a glass bottle or jar. Dropper bottles are my favorite, but use what you have - even a cleaned jam jar works.

To use:

Step 1: Open pores. Rinse face with warm water or apply a warm wet cloth in a gentle patting motion.

Step 2: Warm serum by rubbing a couple drops of it in hands gently. Apply to face in upward motions. Also apply to neck, chest, and hands to support graceful aging in those areas.

Step 3: Steam your face. Put boiling hot water in a bowl. Put a towel over your hand and steam. Alternately, jump in a steaming warm shower or place a very warm wet towel over face. Steam for 2 minutes.

Step 4: Take a warm wet towel and remove excess oil from face in upward strokes. Repeat steps 3-4 as needed to remove more oil. (I like to leave a little oil residue on my face to moisturize.)

Learning to Thrive

For years in my early adulthood, I believed the “not enough” narrative. I felt “not enough” as a single person, as a professional, as a daughter, as a sister, and as a friend. On top of all of that, I felt ashamed of how my troubled skin and body looked as I frantically used various celebrity-endorsed products and went to numerous dermatologist appointments.

However, in 2015 things started to change. I started a fast which taught me first how to pray, but also awakened me to nourish my body with whole foods without preservatives. I treated my body with value by making sure the ingredients in the personal products I used were clean and healthy. Do you know what? My skin started to show a significant turn for the best.

That was the first step that gave me more bravery. Finally, I voiced the pain I felt at my toxic workplace, and discovered that abuse wasn’t normal. In fact, I could choose the life I wanted instead of always living by the “not enough” default.

So, in 2018, I chose freedom. I left my job. I freelanced and worked from home by sharing the toxin-free lifestyle that has equipped me with better focus, hormonal, skin, and general health for the long-term journey God has me on. On top of that, I broke loose from my poverty expectations, and jumped on a plane to my favorite country of all time (and my birthplace!), New Zealand. (While I was there, God showed how just abundant He truly is… but that is another story for another time…)

Today, I help others with my daily beauty-filled wellness tips and recipes that will help sustain their lifelong journey. I see a community that encourages women to embrace the divine timing of their lives, single or married. I see purposeful women who give to others, empowered in the truth that they are fully equipped and enough to impact their world right now.

You are worthy to step into all God has for you in the present.

Ready? Let’s step into our beauty-filled lives.
