Acne is caused by streptococcus in the liver and is spread to our skin through the lymphatic system. If you are on a healing journey to clear your acne, it is crucial you are doing everything you can to support your lymphatic system. Supporting your lymphatic system through consuming healing foods will not only improve your skin but your overall health.

Bananas are a powerful antiviral food and the ultimate fungus destroyers, removing unproductive bacteria while feeding beneficial microorganisms in the intestinal tract. They’re also blood sugar stabilizers.

Sweet potatoes are abundant in vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients such as beta-carotene and lycopene (great for skin). They promote productive bacteria in the stomach, small intestine, and colon and starve unproductive bacteria and fungi.

Spinach and leafy greens help create a more alkaline stomach composition by raising beneficial hydrochloric acid levels which kills off unproductive bacteria that create bad acids. Leafy greens help to expel, purge, and drain the lymphatic system of toxics so it can remain alkaline.

Berries contain antioxidants that are free radicals fighters. Berries also have hidden compounds that stop excess adrenaline from causing damage to organs (our skin is our largest organ). Take it a step further and choose wild blueberries, as wild foods are incredibly healing.

Ginger has over 60 trace minerals, 30 amino acids, and more than 500 enzymes, as well as being antiviral, antibacterial, and anti-parasitic which is amazing for our immune system (which is governed by our lymphatic system).

Celery juice starves unproductive bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, and viruses that are present in the body and flushes their toxins and debris out of the intestinal tract and liver, as well as helping good bacteria thrive. It improves kidney function, restores adrenals, and hydrates on a deep cellular level.

Onions are antibacterial and are one of the most powerful foods for keeping down bacterial overgrowth in the body. Onions are high in trace minerals such as zinc, manganese, iodine, and selenium.

My most precious gifts 🎄Merry Christmas!

In traditional Chinese medicine, the body’s meridians are believed to be vital energetic pathways to your organs and body systems. Facial reflexology works by stimulating reflex points and zones on the face that connect to the rest of the body by encouraging blood flow and oxygen, which calms the nervous system. It is gentle, noninvasive and there is no downtime.

Facial reflexology has many benefits including stress reduction, improved sleep, pain relief, reduced muscle tension, healthier skin, increased energy, more vitality, improvement in immune deficiencies, headache relief and clearer sinuses, just to name a few. It is an incredible tool you can use on yourself as needed, as well as a service you can receive in my treatment room. It can be a stand alone, 30 minute service or an add on to a facial. To see the most significant improvement it is best to do in a series of 5-10 treatments.

The only difference in my facial routine in these two photos are 5 facial reflexology treatments I performed on myself. You can see a huge improvement in my overall complexion and I look significantly less stressed in the second photo. If you suffer from the “11” lines due to your “woody” nature as I do, this treatment is for you! It’s incredible for helping release tension in the forehead and around the eyes.

This is your friendly reminder to ensure you are not skipping your neck! Your neck will likely tell your age sooner than your face will. The skin on your neck is more delicate and thin than the skin on your face so it is extra important that you are applying your facial products to your neck as well as working your neck when practicing gua sha, cupping and self massage. Better yet- get a neck cream!

I am so incredibly lucky to work with this amazing group of ladies! These hairstylists are so talented, creative and so much fun! Being at the salon never feels like being at work and I don’t think it gets much better than that 🫶🏻 wishing you all a very happy holiday!

The lymphatic system works to support our immune system and is the favorite path for strep. The skin is the last stop for strep as it works its way through the subcutaneous fat tissue and eventually ends at the bottom level of the dermis. The skins immune system starts to gather sebum to stop the step but if it isn’t strong enough, it climbs to the outer layer of the skin and acne begins to pop up.

We can support the lymphatic system through diet, exercise, stress management, massage, rebounding, and lymph supporting practices like dry brushing, gua sha, and cupping. In a future post I will go in to more detail how to support the lymphatic system through diet.

Eyebrows are a part of the Wood element and thick brows represent strong Wood qi and the potential for drive, confidence, and ambition. Your eyebrows are also indicative of the health of your liver and strong eyebrows show the ability to process toxic substances and powerful emotions such as anger, more successfully.

A strong eyebrow tells the world you are a confident, driven person. The spacing and the shape of your brows can tell a lot about how you interact with others. Curved brows tell the world you have a pleasant personality and a wider space between them tells you’re a person who can get along well with a broad range of personalities.

The features on our face tell so much about our personality, and changing them drastically can completely change your personality! My goal is always to enhance what God has blessed you with. By laminating and tinting Ally’s eyebrows, her eyes pop and her face looks more inviting! She is a beaut!

Last night my sweet hubs and I got to celebrate 3 years of marriage with dinner at .grille.market and I cannot say enough great things! The service was fanatic, the food was super tasty and environment was so nice! We don’t get date nights nearly enough so I’m thrilled when we pick a new place and we aren’t disappointed!

The weather is cooling down and we need to take the proper steps to ensure our skin thrives during the approaching colder months. Adding a few extra steps to your daily skincare routine can make a huge difference in your skin’s appearance.

I offer virtual consultations if you would like to talk more in depth about a customized skincare routine to get your skin glowing ✨

I think we can all agree a facial is the only way to come off a long weekend…

Transforming and defining your brows can completely change your face, for the better! A defined brow will give your eyes a lift, clear your skin, increase your confidence and therefore make you appear younger and more approachable. A brow lamination is a quick service, lasting about 45 minutes and the results last 6-8 weeks. Here are a few of my recent brow transformations. Book yours today!

It’s taken me 35 years to feel comfortable in my own skin, but man what an irreplaceable feeling! Learning you love yourself for all that you are, and all that you are not, takes practice, courage and an inner peace that you can only discover within. The journey is so worth it 🫶🏻

Here are some fun little facts about myself and what I enjoy outside of being an esthetician! Learning about my clients is my favorite part of my job and I cherish the connections I’ve made so far in my career ✨

Did you know that when your body senses stress it either overproduces or underproduces cortisol?

When your body has too much cortisol, it uses more energy than it needs to, therefore you have excess energy going to your brain and muscles giving you mental chatter and muscle tension. When your body doesn’t have enough cortisol, you don’t have sufficient energy and thus everything in your body slows down including your metabolism, blood flow, breathing and digestion. You will experience brain fog because your blood moves too slowly and doesn’t get to your brain quickly enough.

Ideally we want cortisol to be highest in the morning to give us energy for our day and lowest in the evening so our body is able to produce melatonin to prepare for sleep.

If your body has been over or underproducing cortisol for an extended period of time, it can create other imbalances in your neurotransmitters and hormones. Imbalances in the body’s chemistry will show up as premature aging, hair loss, facial hair in women, acne, sunken in eyes, sparse eyebrows, weight gain or weight loss. The beauty is- facial reflexology can be a powerful tool to help your body find balance again. Facial reflexology can help calm the autonomic nervous system, release past trauma and disappointment, help produce human growth hormone, and restore balance within.

I can’t wait to help you find your inner peace ✌🏻

Swipe for a little brow transformation on the beautiful 🩵

If you are like me and getting out the door in the morning takes much longer than ideal (thank you sweet children!), here are some tips that really simplify my morning routine. Having finished lashes and brows shaves off so much time, along with having a great skincare routine to keep your makeup super minimal. If you know your color season, you can apply some lipstick and your face is complete! Knowing your clothing personality makes picking out an outfit for the day super easy because you know what suits you and your body proportions. And I recently chopped quite a few inches off my hair and what a game changer! If the sun is shining I want to be out the door as quickly as possible to soak it up ☀️

Yesterday I completed a series of 5 facial reflexology treatments on my beautiful coworker Jennie. The difference in her glow from before our first treatment to the final treatment is undeniable!

Facial reflexology works by calming the automatic nervous system which in turn helps the rest of the body function more efficiently. It’s an incredible tool to help detect where there are imbalances within the body that need certain emotions or feelings from past experiences to be released. Spring is a time for renewal and I love using reflexology to reset the body and spirit ✨

What you’re putting on your skin each day can change your skin entirely! Make sure you’re using quality, professional grade skincare products, especially if you are getting routine facials! This will produce the best results to help you meet your skin goals 🫶🏻

I love this serum! A great addition to your skincare routine to reduce inflammation, help clear breakouts and boost hydration. It’s rare to find products that can target so many different concerns and do an effective job living up to its claims. I highly recommend Serum 71!

Only 3 simple changes in these photos (plus some HOC lip gloss!) and what a difference it makes! A brow lamination with a lash lift is the holy grail for tired eyes and a microdermabrasion is the perfect skincare treatment to get rid of dull winter skin. Treat yourself!!!

Does this warmer weather (finally) have you wishing you had a nice summer tan to match?! These two products are my absolute favorite for faking an “I’ve been on a tropical vacation” look!

Tanning water is an awesome serum that you can apply to your face daily once you finish your skincare regimen. This clean, cruelty free product is actually a serum that hydrates and protects the skin with ingredients like aloe, cucumber, chamomile and calendula. Its vegan, cruelty free, fragrance free and oil free so it won’t clog your pores! You can use it every day to give your face a subtle glow without looking orange or streaky.

And if you haven’t tried the bronzer yet, you are missing out!! This is a staple for my every day makeup- great for all skin tones and skin types, as it will not cause breakouts. Stop in to Blend & Bright salon today to grab yours!

Happy Easter 🐰

(PS I promise I will get back on my skin content this week! This one has been keeping me pretty busy with endless sickness but I think we are finally feeling better!)

The Blend & Bright girls hit the town!

Prevention is key! Look for products with Vitamin A, antioxidants (Vitamin C), growth factors and peptides to keep your skin looking youthful for years to come.

Just a friendly reminder in this beautiful Tuesday ☀️
