Skincare & Health Benefits of Sulfur

Sulfur sounds like something a chemist would use in a lab and definitely not an ingredient you’d consider for your skin or health.  However, Sulfur is a natural mineral that is essential for the human body to function and it’s by far the most interesting ingredient I’ve added to my skincare routine along with other uses I’ve recently discovered. 

So what is Sulfur & how can it be incorporated for health?

The Mind, Body & Soul Uses of Rose Water

 

•     •     •    •    •    •    •    •    •     •     •

If you follow me on Instagram or Snapchat (HellNotes) you will frequently see me talking about Rose Water and showing you the many bottles I have stashed as back ups.  I use Rose Water daily for many purposes.  It’s a must have in my daily skin care routine, I use it for magical rituals and have experimented with it in my water and diet too.

Legend has it that Roses originated in China, others claim throughout Persia.  Regardless of its origination, Roses have been used throughout cultures and mythologies for beauty, ritual and culinary purposes.  And yes, I use Rose Water for all those purposes, check out below to learn how.

Alaffia Coconut Water Toner Review

 

If you follow me on Snap Chat (HellNotes) or Instagram, you can most likely tell that I got a thing for facial spritzers.  The other day I shared the 10+ bottles of Rose Water I have and a follower told me that I needed help.

I totally agree, the obsession is real. LOL

My fascination with spritzers began a few years ago when I started reading how celebrity esthetician Renée Rouleau recommended that your face is damp before applying your serum and moisturizer.  I have found that to be the best way for me to get the most out of my daily moisturizer, but with an added boost from spritzers.

I use facial spritzers as a toner right after I wash my face.  I have found Rose Water to be my ultimate go to for its extra moisturizing and anti bacterial properties.  But, I was feeling a little adventurous and decided to veer away from my beloved floral water and try Alafia’s Coconut Water Face toner at my local natural health store.

How to Make and Use Crystal + Moon Infused Water

Have you ever come across someone who always seems to “glow” from within?

Be it a mysterious radiance in their skin, sparkle in their eyes or effortless sense of being, you can feel the good vibes gleaming from such people. Some may assume that perhaps a clean diet, exercise, skin care regimen will give you that glow from within, but its also due to a balanced spiritual regimen that helps you achieve your natural luminosity.

Mind like water.

One of my favorite tools for magical rituals is water.  Water is the universal conduit to many realms and quickly balances and neutralizes any ritual. You can add any ingredient imaginable and can be used for any purpose. I first became fascinated with using water in my rituals when I saw the documentary “The Hidden Messages in Water”, by Japanese researcher Masaru Emoto.  This documentary describes how the mind can have an effect on changing the basic chemistry of water.

You can achieve any life outcome with any tool, be it water, a element of nature or inanimate object by simply using your mind.

The purpose of any ritual is to either attract health, peace of mind, wealth, abundance and happiness or to push away illness, misfortunes, depression and negativity. All this is done with your mind.

Your thoughts attracts things. Push and Pull.

So how can we use our minds to get that glow from within and attract light to you?

Small Shops Big Things: My Current Favorite Bath Products

Bath products are my favorite because they’re products I can indulge in daily especially after long stressful days at work. I have recently been into black owned shops, especially those geared to skincare and beauty because of the intimate customer service I receive and the quality of the products overall.

A lot of handmade, small shop owners also indulge in their products so they know what you expect from their products, making it even more personal to the buyer.  I definitely prefer small shops due to the novelty and the exclusive feel to most of the ingredients that you honestly can’t find anywhere else.  Below I share with you my current favorite baths products I’ve been using these past few months.

Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer Review

Since my recent skin issues I mentioned in my last skin care update post, especially throughout 2016, I haven’t been wearing much makeup and at one point spent 3 months without wearing any makeup at all, nothing, not even mascara.  Since getting my skin under control these past few weeks, I began wearing makeup on occasion, (mostly for work) and trying out new things little by little making sure I don’t irritate my skin.

I started using a sample of Clinique’s Beyond Perfecting foundation and was so impressed with it that I went to my local department store and purchased the full bottle ($27.00).

I really liked how it covered some of the redness/irritation around my nose area and balanced out my skin tone providing full coverage without being heavy or drying as some foundations (especially full coverage) tend to be.

Wading in Soft Waters

AHHH, to be woman. Such a novelty and refreshing, yet complex perspective.

So, as you can see, a few changes here at the blog. A new layout, new format and new content coming your way.

I initially was going to keep all my old blog posts archived, but decided to just start fresh with this post. It’s funny because 7 years ago around this time is when I first started this blog and in a eerie feeling feel like I’m making full circle.

I’ve been blogging and somewhat documenting my life since 2010. I first started blogging to document my “Hair Growth Journey” as well as find a platform for spiritual self expression. My mind is constantly on the go, I have a lot of ideas and forms of expression and find writing to be my greatest escape and true love.

I’m many things to the outside world. I’m a “witch”, I’m a healer, a writer, a lover, combatant, and so many darkness and light in between. To define me is a joke and a waste,  as I’m many things at once and for all.

 A lot of things have changed, but some also remained constant in my life since my first blog post. I was 24 years old then and now I’m in my early 30’s. I was always apprehensive about sharing my spiritual and soul experiences but now,  I feel a lot more comfortable sharing my spiritual progression.

 It is a time for rituals, mythology, metaphysics and occult knowledge.

I’ve never really cared about people’s opinions about my spirituality, but it seems to be so taboo to talk about death, spirits and even the devil and find my blog to be a space free of judgement in addressing those topics. If you’ve been following me for sometime, you know that I’ve touched base on those topics with no filter.  No filter about the blackness and darkness that surrounds who I am. Who I’ve become.

God, its been so beautiful.

Dedicated to shedding light on hidden knowledge with basis, information and a lot of research and personal experience.

Writing allows me to express my free will. I know that in these years I’ve touched many lives, received a lot of love from you and above all appreciation for reawakening your inner occult.
I am my ancestors wildest dreams.
This blog is dedicated to the ancestors. Known & unknown. Dedicated to your darkness, your hidden self (Occult).
So welcome.
Welcome to my wild dream and imagination. An indelible mark in this one existence.
