items Treasure yourself! Tesoro mio ✨ I have emerged from the faerie realms with leaf, herb, and fruit beauty recommendations! 🍄🍓
Just note: I don't have these in my medicine cabinet all at one time! It's more like rotating for the need because you know, stuff can add up. So don't feel beauty intimidated or that the goal-post is moving, haha. These are genuinely what I've researched and recommend. It's a, “use till it runs out” kind of situations, and I'll switch to cheaper options like the cheaper shea butter below at times. But I neeed my amber vanilla shea butter.
I went through many years of sickness (the root of many magics), and came out with so called faerie green beauty hacks, medicinal herbs, SALVES, and picks for a greener life! Natural care can be CHEAPER and more effective for inside-out health as wel... Sometimes you don't need to spend a lot to look great, and the best “hacks” are in your kitchen cabinet or local co-op herb bins.
Also some of the recommendations are from my Grandmother's (may she rest in lavender) love of herbs, femininity, that beautiful, twisting, pearl-like spirit, and the natural world. Also many tips from my family learned over literally decades! Slather...
There's always a balance of cost and sustainability, so I've linked to Amazon in places but also lead elsewhere where possible. Perfection is for pearls! Divest and go local as you have time, money, and energy.

Faerie Tooth Care ✨🦷
Sparkly ✨ We like pearls for teeth! Besides this, the best tooth care is STRETCHING. Tension on head = tension on teeth = cavities. Prevent this by perfecting your seated forward fold even while scrolling on phone if needed. Always use ab-work first ...
Bring on your inner emperor and floss with silk. Makes so much sense, right? Biodegradable, cruelty-free for harvesting, and a nifty reuseable container sans plastic.
Biodegradable Natural Silk Dental Floss
Why brush with microplastics? Yes, I know the answer is we're being corporately abused by every angle!
But we introduce boar bristle, bamboo toothbrushes, which are FABULOUS. When in a pack, aren't too much more expensive than a store-bought plastic schtick, and really leave a nice, lovely fresh scrubbed clean feeling to your teeth.

Boar Bristle & Bamboo Toothbrush - Compostable
Nano-hydropaxatite is a scientifically studied good fluoride substitute (literally what composes our teeth) without the alleged harm of excess fluoride (between our water system and brushing). After a lot of research, I decided to stop using fluoride...
Personally, I find my teeth are no longer as cold or heat sensitive after using this which is really surprising and nice. This flavor also specifically doesn't have benzyl alcohol added (other of the brand's flavor do), which is really rare (why do o...
This does have xylitol, which finding a natural toothpaste without is really difficult, and studies show xylitol can reduce brain cognition over eight year periods. However, this seems to be the best toothpaste alternative for now besides some other ...

Fluoride Free Nano Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste Mint
Oh wow, this is a diva toothpaste. PEARL powder, which is shown to have good whitening benefits alongside other good ingredients like fluoride substitute nano-hydropaxatite (what composes our teeth).
Made by a small brand in small batches. This does have xylitol, which finding a natural toothpaste without is really difficult, and studies show xylitol can reduce brain cognition over eight year periods. However, this seems to be the best toothpaste...

Pearl POWDER Toothpaste Scrub (Plastic-Free) 🦪⚪
For natural tooth pain relief, blue skate oil helps strengthen teeth at the root: the brain. pineal gland! This is like one of my weirdest faerie times.
Pineal gland health is often tied to tooth health and communities with high, rich fat such as fermented blue skate oil protecting their brain have some of the lowest dental tooth problem (This will give the most vivid, odd dreams you've experienced a...
If you're struggling with tooth health or porosity, look into this fermented blue skate oil! This is a niche health cure (and a rare chronic illness forum deep scroll find), but it really works!
Bonus alert: because your pineal connects to dreams, you'll probably have the most vivid dreams ever experienced, and some people report spiritual awakenings.

TOOTH PAIN FIX - Fermented Skate Liver Oil
Faerie Beauty & Medicinal Cabinet Favs
We sparkle ✨ My favorite faerie homemade hack besides this is: olive oil, raw organic sugar, a sprinkle of essential oil! Mix together, SCRUB. Cheap & good. Also look into making your own deodorant with loose arrowroot powder in bulk from the store.
Smelling like a delicate beautiful rose with the most gorgeous, aromatic perfume AND plastic-free is the dream! Now if only we could smear it over our whole bodyyy.
If you're not loving this price (mine lasts forever), make your own with arrowroot powder, some baking soda, essential oils, and some shea butter if wanted!

Moroccan Rose Deodorant (Plastic & Aluminum Free)
🪻👒 Soft lavender and sage with the added aluminum-free bonus. The first natural deodorant that kept me sniffing my pits all day. Happy pits.
Lavender & Sage Vegan Aluminum-Free Deodorant
Blue tansy for anti-redness and inflammatory (blue tansy is being studied for anti-cancer benefits) as a fun way to have organic cuticle care without the $70 fume-huffing manicure! A light faerie manicure.
(I love them as much as anyone but can we PLEASE develop a better way to do our nails). Blue tansy is also good for anti-septic wound healing to keep on hand and treat redness. Also a woman-owned brand!

This is your long eyelash fix! Twice as long. Smooth on at night, toss that damn, lying “lengthening” mascara out. So many castor oils are full of sh--, and this small-farm grown, hexane-free, cold-pressed castor oil is the real, thick, luscious deal...
For extra wellness, drop a little in your belly button and massage in a clockwise circle to aid digestion (warning: you may poop a lot and clear the guts).
Find food-grade castor oil and ingest a tablespoon for added digestion and anti-inflammatory benefits. After a bit of research, this is one of the better recommended brands. Also at your local health food store.

Scrub yourself like a newborn babe for lymphatic drainage & exfoliation. This is delicious to do every day or when you get the scritchy-scratches.
Life hack: want a (slightly) cheaper version? Marshalls usually has sales on these around $4-6.

Acacia Wood Boar Bristle Bath Brush
Remove the hard bits with this pumice stone! I feel like people don't use these any more? But they're really the best for feet exfoliation (literally relief) and better than most paid spa feet exfoliations. Love this brand for ethical harvesting. Hon... You can usually find them cheap at the store, but this is an ethically sourced version, which we love.

🍄 Mushroom power!
I don't love these are single use (alternatives include beeswax and cotton for resuable), but love the decimal testing to use this at your local music festival. Watch the founder's journey creating this from materials research on TikTok!

Sustainable Earplugs (Made from Mushrooms/Mycellium)
I'm actually so big on having these (and a rose quartz) on hand. You just feel so mafical. Lapis Lazuli is my other love.
Healing crystal is a necessity (but beware, amythyst can really transform your life). Moonrise Crystals does a good transparent sourcing job.
“Do crystals actually do anything?” I don't know, DOES IT, DAVE. Our bodies are electricity, and I find a lot of calm with the magic. Also, pretty!

Ethically Mined Witchy Medicine Cabinet Amethyst (Rough)
Taking this makes me feel like a pretty princess! I rarely buy pearl powder because it's expensive, but I love this brand for being sustainable, freshwater harvested, and in beautiful blue glass jars (if you collect sea glass, you know). Add to a morning love-you-latte ☕ A jar lasts forever (I still have one from years ago).
Pearl powder is ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine for strengthening bones, irradiant beauty from the inside out, 14-18 amino acids including 8 not created by the human body, and cultivating yin, that beautiful feminine softness and strength.
It is a brand run by weird California hippies, but hey, they do some cool things with their toe hairs blazing.

Freshwater Pretty Girl Pearl Powder ✨🦪⚪ (Sustainably Harvested)
I feel naked without this in my cabinet! Bulgarian Rose Otto uses thousands of petals create little oil, which makes it miraculously beautiful smelling and more expensive than rose essential oil.
I use a local co-op brand (cheaper) on sale, but this brand is also good. Bulgarian Rose Otto is gorgeous.

(For Feeling Joy) Hibiscus Blueberry Tea 🌺🫐 Blueberry Girl
If you have any scars or discoloration, this will get rid of them. Many a time my face/skin has been saved without expensive care. Microneedling is also apparently helpful.
MIRACLE Scar Fix Serum Mederma with Vitamin E & Niacinamide
Faerie Skincare Loves 💖
Shellac! Eschew the $80 serum slapped full of chemicals. Slather beeswax sunscreen ($14 skincare hack), rich oils, & INSIDE OUT beauty. Step AWAY from the retinol if you're under 40.
I also don't wash my face besides organic oil makeup remover (removes the dermis). Much of skincare is internal, good fats, joy, and a healthy diet (with delicious sinning snacks), so I really don't wash or tone regularly as it feels abrasive and rem...
Love a good rose otto or lavender mist though. Mmm. Occasionally, I'll make an at-home salt (tightening) or sugar (sweetening), oil, and essential oil scrub to exfoliate. That's all!
My ultimate skincare hack! Really beautiful, thick, rich, skin-loving ingredient packed sunscreen.
Actually a life-changing skincare hack— beeswax! Other ingredients like seabuckthorn deeply moisturizes with vitamins C and E, and rare Omega-7 fatty acid, chamomile calms, and beeswax locks in your skin like a 16th century furniture shellac! Moistur...
Reef-friendly sunscreen with mineral ingredients is the only sunscreen that will ever feed your skin instead of drying AND hurting the environment. Bonus the zinc-oxide brings wound healing.

Seabuckthorn & Chamomile Beeswax Sunscreen
My ultimate skincare hack! Vitamin C to clear & brighten your skin, beeswax to shellac it down for the next seven decades, and zinc oxide for mineral sunscreen to say no to being wrinkly at 98 and be reef-safe (most sunscreens are NOT and are nas...
Orange Vitamin C Beeswax Zinc Oxide Sunscreen
Huge fan of this sunscreen with mango & cocoa butter as a base. With a reusable tin (plastic-free, infinite recyling) and skin benefits like green tea. Beautiful!
Mango Butter Sunscreen Organic Mineral SPF 30
Beauty starts inside! Transform what you drink with a countertop water filter solution removing fluoride, PFAs, and forever chemicals. Also some of the BEST tasting water I've ever tried. The difference is night and day.
This is one of the only counter-top solution filters specializing in these removals. I spent a long time searching lower cost solutions without installing a faucet or reverse osmosis and came up with this. I know it's expensive! But it's well worth s...

Forever Chemical Water Filter
The only makeup remover you'll ever need! Stop paying expensive brands to strip your skin barrier (and for nasty chemical makeup while we're at it!).
Makeup is fat-soluble, which means any oil will dissolve most better than buying a separate harsh, acidic, expensive, add-another-bill-break-my-skin-barrier makeup remover. I honestly use whatever's on my kitchen counter (not coconut though as the larger molecules can cause outbreaks).
Buy whatever brand you want! Aim for glass bottles and organic, cold-pressed if possible. I'm only using Kirkland Signature because many people have but really use any oil, and if you want built in skincare, use a good, organic oil like olive oil for...
Add a natural towel to no longer use those dumb, disposable makeup wipes that you ALSO have to keep buying again and again.

If you're not enjoying life, your skincare won't be good :) Make sure to snack and eat really good, yummy snacks with all this “clean” beauty hoo-hah.
When you're happy, well-fed, and well-snacked everything's better! Now, I cannot have a jar in my house without eating the whole thing in a day or two, but alas, that is a burden I shall bear.

Pop in the freezer for an extra lift (I know this is anti-TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), but hey, these are my ancestral beauty hacks). Use this brand with truly ethically mined jade at each step of the supply chain.
Founders James Foo and Rashmi Yeole went to great lengths to ensure every part of their mining and supply chain was ethical, sourcing from Kazahkstan rather than the often blood mines of Myanmar where 90% of jadite originates.

Ethically Mined Facial Roller
Wake your liver every spring! Skin health is organ health and using dandelion every spring teaches our liver to come out of hibernation and digest stagnant bile to greet the spring sun.
Dandelion wakes us up after the long winter to teach us spring is stirring, the cold ice frost melting. The bitterness of the leaf and grounding of the root help our digestion and spirits.
You can also harvest fresh dandelion greens from outdoors (beware pesticides) and toss into a salad this spring. The roots are delicious to roast. This "weed" is true medicine!
The leaves uplift while dense, nutritional root systems ground. According to scientific studies, it supports liver detoxification, digestion, blood sugar regulation, and can improve skin health.
This tea is sweet and warm. I also love the delicious bitterness of the greens!
As with any herbal system, don't take long-term without checking with a naturopath or herbalist. Consider buying loose root at a local co-op for cheaper!

Lemongrass is medicinal, and this moisturizer feels like waking up delicious.
🌸 Honestly, if I could smother myself in pho, I wouldn't because that would be silly, but sometimes I have wanted to float in fields of lemongrass, and THIS MOISTURIZER GIVES THAT EFFECT. LEMONGRASS CLOUDS!!!
Also, lemongrass is highly medicinal and anti-inflammatory, and I like dipping into this jarred dream whenever I'm getting the sniffles or finding red spots.

Faerie Natural Healing Beauty & Pain Herbs & Medicinals
A lot of beauty is renourishment! Heal naturally from the inside out with leaves and berries like a true faerie. Healing naturally or preventing is often cheaper and more effective.
If you have a wound, bruise, muscle swelling, stiffness, or even mental injury such as shock or deeper injuries such as bone breaks or surgery, arnica is your friend.
Gentle on the repair, this herb in a sugar pellet softens your healing and melts stiffness, bruising, shock, and wounds away. Using this for mental health shock or trauma can also be ideal.
Take in a lower dosage like here (30C) or look into higher dosage (200C) for more intense trauma or injury.
As with any homeopathic medicine, be sure to check with your doctor or a naturopath for any drug interactions and specific recommendation length. Arnica is generally pretty safe.
