The Star Science

May 29, 2019

Exciting! I finally found out the time of my birth and – aloha – my long overdue horoscope readings! Rob Perri of The Star Science dove right on in for me, and welp, now I know what a reading feels like. Intense! I’ve known Rob for years but it wasn’t until I listened to my friends’ newish podcast, The Opposite Sex Show, that I finally got a good taste of what his work is all about. I’ve been a fan of Rob’s keen eye for film photography for a long time and had a sense that his intuitive tuning in to both the seen and unseen would serve his chart reading with serious aplomb.

And was I right. I sent over my date/time of birth, and within a few days he texted “are you ready?” (Sorta, no, ok, shit, no, YES!)

What I love about Rob is his firm grasp on the ground. He is rooted in reality, the here and now, and is incredibly articulate communicating this rootedness. What do I mean? I mean his reading is not lofty and ethereal. It’s very much grounded in the present – and he does a great job dot-connecting the intricacies of your houses, orbits and all that other astrology tech to make sense of this here and now. He’s not reading to predict. He’s reading to facilitate understanding of why we are where we are and to elucidate potential predisposed paths and personal land-mines. What I learned is how deeply engrained potential areas of missteps are for me. We made sense of my loops, trips and the ways I seem to fall off course. From there, we forged a clearer direction on how to possibly course-correct when I sense these hiccups erupting.

Rob is so straight forward and I love nothing short of this approach. He also explained very thoroughly the meaning of all the language of astrology. For example – what is means when planets are squaring off, what houses mean and hold, and all the talk of rising signs, etc. It was a lot to absorb and I was furiously writing notes.

An astrology reading can assist you in many ways. It can help to illuminate your personal energetic signature and align you with your life’s purpose. It can also give specific timelines of the changing energetic tides and how those might affect your personal birth chart. In addition, a Synastry reading can offer vital information into how your chart interacts with that of another giving you valuable insight into the nature of relationships. Readings are offered on a sliding scale between $80-$250 depending on length and depth.

– Rob Perri, The Star Science

Readings run around an hour or so and he gets right into it during the call. And the sliding scale is incredible. He really impressed upon me that this work is his way of doing service. It feels like he is just as excited about what he is discovering as you will inevitably be!

Please check out this podcast to hear more from him directly, or just take the leap and book a sesh!

Quim – The Eye Cream For Your Lady Parts!

May 24, 2019

A self-care line for humans with vaginas and humans without vaginas who love vaginas™?.

WHAT’S OUT THERE AIN’T WORKING, FOLKS.

Ladies! We are in a new-gen of vag-love. Out are the creepy chemical ‘odor-blocking’ washes from CVS. Let’s talk honestly about vaginal health and sexual wellness in a way that takes a sustainable, proactive, self-care approach.

Buh-bye to glycerin-based lubes and no thank you to bacteria/fungus feed on the sugar in glycerin. Do we really need another UTI?

This is where Quim was born.

I am obsessed with my bottle of Quim. I never thought of taking care of my V in this way! Now, it’s the first step I take when I get out of the shower and the last self-care I do before bed (while I use my VFit!!OBSESSED!!!!)

Intimate wellness is now a number one priority for me, especially as I am now deep into middle age. So thrilled to add Quim to my v-love-routine. And oh swoon, the packaging!!! To die for. This is a must to get your V-care going.

“Our mission at Quim is to create products that deepen the connection you have with your own body and empower you to care for it in the way that makes sense for you. Because it’s high time we started treating our quims with the same TLC as our diligently serumed/SPF’d/charcoal-masked faces.”

– Cyo Ray Nystrom & Rachel Washtien, Co-founders of Quim

Currently using and loving:

CBD.png

CBD or Cannabidiol is a non-psychoactive compound found in cannabis. It has been shown to help moisturize delicate skin and alleviate inflammation and pain. Many companies in the skincare industry are now adopting this versatile ingredient into their products. Companies looking to add CBD based products to their lineup may want to contact a cbd manufacturer.

Tea Tree is an essential oil that has been applied topically for hundreds of years. Think of it as Mother Nature’s antifungal and antiseptic (helps keeps those UTIs and yeast infections at bay). However, let me emphasize that this is a prevention method of UTI’s and yeast infections, not a cure. If you suspect that you have a UTI, you should get checked out by a urologist like those at Advanced Urology.

Damiana.png

Damiana is a plant that has been known for its aphrodisiac properties whose use dates back to Mayan civilization. It has been used to help increase sexual arousal and stamina, increase the frequency of orgasms, and reduce vaginal dryness.

Violet has historically been used topically as a circulatory stimulant as well as to soothe dry or chaffed skin.

Apricot.png

Apricot Kernel Oil contains gamma linoleic acid which can help support skin health. It also contains Vitamin A and E, and is known to help soothe irritated skin.

Microblading With Julia Faria

May 16, 2019

Alas! I searched far and wide to find the best microblade artists in town for you. And here she is: Julia Faria.

Why did it take me two years? Or is it three? Because bad microbladed (is that even a word?!) brows are everywhere! I had clients asking me who to go to – I had nada. Mostly because if I have not tried something, I cannot and will not speak to it. How can I recommend a procedure if I have not personally tried it? You need to do your research into the studio that you’re going to get your brows done to make sure the workers have been properly trained by someone like The Brow Studio (https://thebrowstudiobycc.com/) so they know what they’re doing. If you don’t, you might end up with wonky eyebrows!

At this point in Groomed LA’s ten year tenure, I rarely actively seek providers. We are flooded with invitations to experience the latest and greatest in beauty, aesthetics, healing, etc. But the the micoblade artists I had been pitched didn’t feel right to me. They looked terribly painted on, overly dark and fake looking. ICK! Thanks to Instagram, (yup, the gram) I found Julia on my own. Her work looked incredible. Natural, understated, and a little ‘fluffy’ so to speak. I reached out and enter the most adorable, gorgeous talented creature. Miss Julia.

I headed to her stunning studio on Rodeo (that gorgeous complex – oh the views!) and was greeted by this Brazilian goddess. It was love at first sight. Her whole vibe is real, natural and less is more. She looked at my brows and said we could do a little something-something. The goal was to fill in the spottier areas, not re-create a fake brow line that wasn’t already naturally there. She took her pencil and sketched in what she saw would be the perfect brow frame. She was correct. It was perfect. Mind you, I never have penciled in my brows. Ever. I always think dark, heavier brows made me look manly. Julia proved me totally wrong. The way she lightly filled in where hair was missing, simply gave my brows and face the perfect framing.

We booked a session and in one quick hour, my first pass was done. I AM OBSESSED. Easy as heck, painless and relaxing. The first few days I was extra dark (of course I miss that now, as it fades a bit) until I go back for my next pass in a few weeks. This is now a no-brainer. I will for sure do this every two years. It’s a face game changer. Paired with gorgeous lashes from Patricia of Bijou Beauty and I am good to go – make up free – my fave.

Julia developed her unique technique that no one else is doing. If you are looking for The One, Julia is it.

This was the day after and my brows look a bit painted in and heavier. In a few days they started to peel to reveal soft, natural brows.
