Skincare Magic

I’ve been playing around with an idea of a flow chart for some time, doodling in my journals and wishing to bring you something simple that flows toward suggestions for skincare solutions. Using easily accessible templates online I came up with these two charts as a starting place for my vision.

Please see below for what I hope offers guidance toward your next organic, high-vibe skincare purchase. Also, here’s a link to where these resources will available on the website permanently.

On the matter of “skin types”

Let us discuss. Skin types are typically describing how the skin reacts (to products, foods and your environment). When your skin is not having a reaction it’s essentially “normal”. You likely experience your skin as prone to some of these reactions. It is essential for me to mention that redness and irritation often accompany both dry flakes AND blemishes. Using myself as an example, when my skin is reactive in the winter it is often red with some dry flakes and an occasional blemish, when my skin is reactive in the Summer months it’s often irritated and blemish prone. My first line of defense is always a pH balancing face mist. A healthy skin barrier is a pH balanced skin barrier! When your skin is reactive it’s often reacting in one of several predictable ways:

redness and irritation

dry flakes

excess oil production

blemishes

Sensitive skin can be summarized as skin that is more reactive, more often, to more products. The more sensitive your skin, the more various products and experiences will irritate it. All Light Goddess Alchemy products were made for skin like mine, which is generally sensitive but not VERY sensitive. Many folks who have been irritated by fragrance added to other skincare lines have experienced the Light Goddess line as non-irritating. However, the sweet creatures who I know to be super sensitive, particularly those who know that their skin reacts to essential oils, have inspired all essential oil free offerings: Heavenly Cleansing Oil- Original formula, Gentle Face Creme and Pure Lavender Face Mist (all face mists are hydrosols which are the watery distillation of plants and are gentle, super gentle in comparison to the concentrated magic of essential oils).
