The Organic Spa Magazine event Experience Wellness and Travel, held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel on October 28th was nothing short of spectacular. A virtual BEST OF the leading edge experts in wellness were there to share their top of the line products in a friendly and generous way.

My first stop was a bee line to the space set up by ROSEWOOD MAYAKOBA Spa and Resort. They offered a private Shaman healing experience. Count me in. I was saged, smudged, and hugged by a beautiful saint who sent me on my way with words of wisdom and advice. The spa director, Emmanuel Arroyo was kind enough to gift me with a beautiful box set of miniature bath and shower oils. Highlight of the night!

Me and the Shaman – divine hug!

Next up, I pursued the WELL PEOPLE makeup line, where the tag line read: BE BRAVE. BE BEAUTIFUL. BE YOU.  Yes please! The makeup I took home and tried included non-toxic mascara, a pigment stick (vibrant!), and a highlighter to create magic on the cheekbone.  I have to say, I’m thoroughly impressed. The products deliver without being harmful to my skin. I look glow-y and natural with that “I’m not wearing makeup” vibe we all strive for. I’m chomping at the bit to try their cover sticks and foundation for a flawless and harmless result.

Lastly, I ended the night with an incredible swag bag flowing to the brim with so many wonderful goodies. I cannot wait to explore each and every product and follow up with you guys. Organic Spa magazine founder, Beverly Maloney-Fischback and Megan Boles of Murphy O’ Brien PR put together a lovely, tasteful evening of exceptional food, top of the line wellness products, and an overall beautiful, wellness experience. As a wellness practitioner myself but someone new to the LA wellness scene, I was blown away with what’s on Organic Spa’s hit list of goodies. Thank you for bringing it, Organic Spa!
