🗡️🌸 This weekend, I performed Iraqi fusion dance in a creative show by my dear friend . There was pretty much every prop from the Arab world there, and it was my honor to introduce daggers.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to dance, for these beautiful photos by , and for all the laughs shared which formed new friendships.

What is a Natural Beauty Specialist, anyway?

To me, it’s more than a title—it’s a way of approaching client care with intention, simplicity, and soul.

As a Natural Beauty Specialist, I support your outer beauty and inner well-being using non-toxic, earth-friendly, and low-maintenance methods. My work goes beyond surface-level treatments to help you reconnect with your body, your rhythm, and the earth.

Here’s what I offer with heart:
• Reiki-infused head spa rituals
• Low-maintenance haircuts & care
• Henna body art with personal meaning
• Clean beauty swaps & intuitive guidance
• Earth-honoring dance classes

If you’ve been craving deeper care (without the pressure or overwhelm) you’re not alone. I’m here to help you feel more like you, one gentle ritual at a time.

Which offering are you most curious to try? I’d love to hear. 💕 Rickie

Beltane Beauty Rituals: Where Fire Meets Flower

What is Beltane?

Beltane is the Celtic festival of fire, fertility, and life in full bloom. Held halfway between spring and summer, it celebrates passion, growth, and the beauty of becoming.

Why It Matters Today

In a world that moves fast, Beltane reminds us to slow down and tend to what’s blossoming within.
Your self-care can be a ritual of awakening, not just routine.

Before your ritual, prepare your space:
1. Clear: Mist with rosemary hydrosol, burn a cleansing herb, or simply clap/sing to shift the energy.
2. Center: Take a few deep belly breaths. Feel your feet root into the earth.
3. Call in: Ask for the presence of loving, helpful spirits—today, I’m feeling guided by the Green Man.

🕯️ Light a candle: white, purple, yellow, or green. Then pick one of the following rituals, or try all 3!

1. Floral Bath for the Body & Soul
Infuse warm water with rose petals, calendula, or chamomile. Add salt for grounding and anoint yourself with oil. As you soak, breathe deeply and imagine clearing away winter’s heaviness.

2. Magic Mirror Ritual
Spritz your mirror with rose water.
Look into your eyes and say:
“I bloom with love, light, and purpose.”
Repeat 3x. Let your reflection become a portal to your own spirit.

3. Affirmation Jar
Write down what you want to grow—whether it’s patience, abundance, or peace. Fold each note and place it in a jar with herbs or petals. Pull one whenever you need to reconnect.

Need help resetting your energy + scalp this season?

Multifunctional, minimalist, and mighty—just how I like my products.

CULT+KING® SUPERWATER is my go-to for refreshing the scalp between washes, soothing irritation, and adding a healthy shine.

The bottle’s gorgeous, the refill pouch is generous, and a little goes a long way. Inside is a blend of rose, chamomile, and sandalwood waters with Holy Basil, Vitamin C, and antioxidant-rich botanicals.

Ask me about it next time you’re in. You’ll see why it’s a staple.
