Where you’ll find me
Tucked away in the spa, elbow deep in sugar.

Best beauty advice I’ve received (and followed)
Create a sacred space and bring only love into your daily ritual, commit that time each day to yourself because you are worth it.

Best health advice I’ve received (and followed)
Nourish your body from within, heal and feed your mind, learn to love yourself daily.

Favourite way to nourish your skin from within
WATER. I can honestly feel the difference if I’m not diligent in my normal water intake. My body feels tired, and my mind is congested.

Also… ALL the Vitamin D *drool*.

Daily mantra
Be happy, be kind and offer only love.

My favourites

  1. BroccoFusion Sulforaphane Lotion AND Ointment, Newco – My mother in law introduced this product to me when I was 18, and from that moment, it has been a staple in my home. It is my absolute GO TO, CURE ALL, ALWAYS on-hand product. I reach for this magical potion for sunburns, acne, dryness, first aid, any skin sadness, anytime my skin feels stressed and needs that extra intense hug (anywhere on my body). This is my main squeeze.
  2. The Blue Cocoon, May Lindstrom – I’ve had problem skin my entire life, well into my twenties, and I still suffer from breakouts and sensitive skin. Because of this, I’ve been known to overload and dehydrate my skin with invasive products and delusions of immediate perfection, which, in turn, has only intensified the chaos. Having oily, acne prone skin, it took me a long time to not be afraid of ‘oil’ and to understand it’s intense nourishment and seek it out. The Blue Cocoon is my HEALER, from smell to texture, the simplicity in its results, it is my most comforting blanket to snuggle each day.
  3. The Problem Solver, May Lindstrom –  The first time I used The Problem Solver, I genuinely felt like I had been given an unconditional second chance for my skin. As I washed the flaky green crumbs off my face and down the drain, my skin felt NEW, it felt flawless. I’ve since fallen hard for this product and have experimented with many custom mixtures – adding tea tree, May Lindstrom Jasmine Garden, May Lindstrom Honey Mud, and more to amplify its effects for targeted concerns. I always know my skin is calling out for it when I find myself craving the smell and the heat.

Don’t tell anyone, but…
I cannot wink… and when I try, it is NOT sexy.

Most creative way I’ve solved a beauty issue in a pinch
Add a few drops of your favourite facial oil to your brow pomade as it starts to dry out.

Favourite plant/flower
White, Phalaenopsis Aphrodite (Moth Orchids)
