Have you ever considered how drastically different humans we are each week of the month .. core alignment is finding how your body ticks and how to begin to learn more about YOUrself as we become wiser, more present .. I'd love to discuss this one more ❤️
Consider those without a 'FLOW', those who just have bits and pieces - I bet tracking patterns could lead into some breakthroughs but for me, and how my 'situational depression' takes over is rather inconsistent .. the same treatment daily, but never the same human 🧠🤓
I read a few articles on different methods of skincare for the 4 cycles, summed up:
1. Menstrual, focus on hydration and moisturizing. Avoid harsh treatments and exfoliants.
2. Follicular, focus on maintenance. Good time for scrubs, facials, or dermaplaning.
3. Ovulatory, focus on oil control. Clay masks
4. Luteal, focus on treating breakouts. Acid vs scrub exfoliants, niacinamide serum, face roller stored in freezer to calm breakouts.
* if getting a facial, shoot for 2 weeks before/after period.
* hair removal after period.
