Wonderfully Wacky-Do and Hair Free Too!
I received an email the other day that made me giggle a bit, absolutely smile an even bigger bit, and ever so pleased to be a bit “Out There”. Here’s an excerpt from the most excellent email below:
Hello Beauty Marked!,
“I have to say that your rather well informed, albeit unorthodox approach to beauty is really refreshing and always a great read. I wasn’t too sure I’d get into the daily beauty affirmations or enjoy the beautiful quotations you have posted as much as I have. They are just so different. But I think the thing I am most pleased about is your inspirational quips that you liberally share. I also love that you are so wonderfully wacky-do, but in the coolest, most well groomed way…”
i just had to share this gem of an email and weigh in to say how much I so appreciate and embrace my card carrying Groomed Wacky-Do status and that I couldn’t ever consider passing up an opportunity to spritz on a fine fragrance, slick on a gorgeously-rich red lippie, have a mani, pedi, blow-dry, brow shape, wax, facial, to meditate, re-align my chakras, have a massage, or to commune with a magnificent crystal. No way José! But the best bit about this email is that you lovelies obviously know it too. I love that! Thanks for noticing and an even bigger thanks for being you!

How Nifty Is This?
When your running late and have an annoying case of flakeys on your face and haven’t got time for a zippy mechanical exfoliation or did one and missed a few rogue terrors, just grab your tweezers to sort out the rest. Seriously, it’s as easy as tweezing off the offending bits of skin with stealth precision, moisturizing, and away you go. I know…too cool!
The Perfect Accessory!

Beauty Out Equals Beauty In:
Most of us are familiar with the Law of Attraction as it is capably explored and explained in Rhonda Byrne’s’ “The Secret”, but I’d like to lovingly remind you that the very same principles apply to beauty…our beauty. When we are continually thinking negative thoughts about ourselves like, I’m so ugly, I wish I were attractive, I hate my skin, I wish I didn’t have such a funny looking nose etc., Gosh, if I could only loose some weight then I’d look nicer, I’ll never find love, and so on, these negative thoughts are making their way Out There, and as dictated by the Law of Attraction (like attracts like) we expertly attract the very same back into our lives and we tend to get tons more of what’s in direct alignment with our thoughts. In other words, we get more of whom or what we don’t want. G-r-e-a-t-t-t-t!
So the important thing to remember is (seeing that the Universe is not as discerning as we’d like it to be) that we can totally utilize the Law of Attraction to our favour. By regularly and actively affirming what (and whom) we wish to attract into our lives, focusing on the positive and sending only beautiful, loving and supportive thoughts out about ourselves and the Universe will, absolutely, ensure that we abundantly get exactly that back. Not bad, ay? After all, as we like to say here at Chez Beauty Marked!, Beauty Out Equals Beauty In, because beautiful thoughts always lead to beautiful outcomes. And yes…that’s, definitely, a Beauty Marked! promise!
Growing Luxuriantly.

Folksy Fab.
It won’t come as a surprise to most Get Even More Gorgeous With Beauty Marked! Lovelies to read about yet another folksy bit of gorgeousness to use on your skin as I just love homemade victuals so. These at home beauty treats are a snap to make, great for your skin, and very easy on the purse to boot! Here’s a new recipe I’ve found to be an effective toner for oily and acne prone skins, if you don’t half mind a good toner that is:
- 100 mL of twice boiled water from the kettle
- 1 teaspoon of honey (organic if possible)
- 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
- 3 drops of certified organic Bergamot essential oil (non-phototoxic)
Dissolve the honey in the warm water and let sit to cool for about 20 minutes. While the honey water is cooling, add the Bergamot essential oil to the apple cider vinegar and mix well. After the honey water has cooled to a lukewarm temperature add the apple cider vinegar mixed with Bergamot essential oil to it. Transfer the honey water and vinegar essential oil mix to a clean amber glass bottle, cap, and shake well. Store your “new beaut” toner in the fridge until it’s needed for duty. Too easy, yet again. After all, there’s nothing like a little home brew to get you sorted.
Affirmations For A Gorgeous Life:
Inside of me there is an endless supply of love. The more I affirm the abundance of love and positivity within me and generously share it with others, the more I have. I take loving care of my body, groom myself and feed my spirit at every opportunity. I am radiantly beautiful as is the world around me.
