This is by far one of my favorite quotes of all time. Being in the beauty + skin care industry and not being one to value superficiality over substance has been a tricky rope to walk. Being beautiful is so much more than what you put on, it’s about what you exude (a point that the quote above drives home). If your soul is true, kind, and compassionate it will bring about a glow that no expensive creams or fancy makeup can compare to. Treating yourself with love and understanding will calm the worst skin ailments and speaking your truth will allow a clear complexion to surface. Keeping this principle in my heart I created our facial line to let your true beauty shine through. It is minimal, supportive, and affordable. The plants that compose our facial line have been specifically chosen and combined to aid your skin, heart, and soul to find alignment. No matter what skin type you have our facial grains aid in soothing and balancing, and with their gentle exfoliation to help you leave behind what no longer serves you. Our rose toner opens the heart center and allows love to cultivate within you, so you can share it with yourself and the world. A great moisturizer, our herbal facial oil is created with plants that soften, nourish, and protect allowing you to move throughout your day with appropriate boundaries so your precious stores of light, love, and health are not depleted. This is a different approach to skin care, a holistic approach. I have been working on formulating these recipes for the past 10 years to not only support your skin and body, but also your heart, mind, and soul. I see the difference that a holistic approach to skin care makes in my life (and looks) and our customers. True beauty comes from within, and with a solid foundation in this truth Bodhi’s facial line was born: As above, so below, as within, so without.

Happy Full Moon, loves. May it bring peace, love, and a chance for renewal to you and yours 🌕✨

Happy Full Moon, loves. As we usher in the penetrating beams of our moon mother tomorrow there are a lot of feels that may be centered around your relationships, creativity, or finances at this time. Depending on where you are in life in regard to these areas this full moon may bring up some form of drama, conflict, or tension. This moon will help you learn much about yourself and those around you. The way you communicate, handle conflict, and where your heart truly stands is highlighted by the light of this full moon. I came across this quote the other day that feels appropriate for this moon’s theme, “No matter how educated, talented, rich, or cool you believe you are, how you treat others ultimately tells all. Integrity is everything” - Unknown Author. It’s a great reminder for this time. Keep your ego in check, y’all, and all will shake out like it’s supposed to. We are here to support you and your journey. Please pop in if you find yourself needing aid during this time. Items that might be helpful: Diffuse essential oils of cardamom, peppermint, patchouli, and lavender to smooth out rough edges, aid the heart, and calm troubled waters. Gemstones that keep you feeling grounded and centered will prove to be very useful: smokey quartz, emerald, amethyst, and chrysocolla are all wonderful. Smudging with blue sage, lavender, or sweet grass. Drink teas with rose, lemon balm, peppermint, rosemary, or sage in them. And listen to the song Incense and Peppermints by Strawberry Alarm Clock, my loves. Those are my suggestions. Take it easy beebs, go with this airy flow, and remember there is always beauty waiting to be found in the most unexpected of places.

Exciting news! Two of my favorite artists @saynomorestudio and @nightbreed_creations have teamed up with me to offer you a couple one-of-a-kind ritual boxes. Go to www.nightbreedcreations.com to get one while you can. Each of these themed boxes has handcrafted pieces from all of us that include: gorgeous handforged jewelry, handmade dream journals, and special incense from my new company @Bibiyaga.

These are truly magical and I am sure each box will end up with the right person to cherish these special treasures.

We still have a few boxes of our Love Spell incense available. This divine smoke is part of a passion project that I have been developing for some time. Tomorrow is a big day for my little cones as I will be launching a new venture and sharing it with all of you! Tonight I will have another special announcement that y’all will want to jump on if you have been a fan of these sweet scented smoke babies. Keep your eyes peeled around 9 ish pm for that exciting news. For now, enjoy the internet vibes of these potent little pretties. 😘

This past weekend’s terrorist attacks leave in their wake destruction, fear, and heavy hearts to say the least. I cannot in truth comprehend the amount of hatred and fear that consumes the soul who commits such heinous acts of violence. Nor do I understand the motives of those in power who deny the role they play in fostering the conditions that encourage such waking nightmares to grow, thrive, and bare fruit. While in trying times like these it is natural to point the finger and feel helpless, victimized, angry, or sad - it is important to keep one thing in mind: You ARE powerful. Your voice, your actions, your thoughts, the way you move through life, every single thing you do makes a difference in this world. For better or worse. Just as hatred, apathy, and fear can spread like wildfire through our nation and communities so too can compassion, bravery, and love. The only way I can fathom to heal and potentially prevent atrocities like we have been experiencing all too often is from all sides: top to bottom (vote, call your representatives, do everything you can to change our corrupt political system), bottom to top (be kind to everyone, every moment is an opportunity to transform our world with your actions and lead by example), and inside to out (take care of yourself so you can share that compassion with others, if we all feel more love for ourselves fear has no place to breed in our hearts and it will shine outwards on others in precarious states of wellbeing). So let us mourn these tragic losses and respect them by being the force of change for the future. If we give up hope, we lose our future, and that is not a world I am willing to live in. Above are the tools that I turn to for aid, courage, and perseverance in times of severe sorrow to help empower me to be present with my feelings, mourn tragic loss, and remain strong to seek justice and heal the pain in this world. May they bring some solace to those in need in these dark times.
