DISCOVER MY YIPPIE LIFE
Live a Sparkling Life
ALL THE THINGS
I stole the word Yippie from some 1960s activists to describe how I live. A little bit yuppie and a lot bit hippie. My house is green, my food is green, I still love my Netflix queue and foodie adventures, and I love all things beauty. Living a Yippie life is embracing the balance between intentional living, silly fun of a childless forty-something with too many friends to count, and a married attorney with a bougie suburban house. I love all the things, so instead of trying to become just one, I own them all. Join me for your own yippie life adventure!

DIY LIVING
Upgrade your Life
Wowza. The number of simple, effective, and plant-based home, skin, health, and beauty concotions you can make yourself in little time and at a small cost is mind blowing. Also? It's really fun to make a new cleaner or cleanser and see it WORK. Here are a few favorites. Chat me up for more details!
LAVENDER AND FRANKINCESE OIL CLEANSER
This is my absolute FAVORITE morning cleanser and I make it myself. 10 drops frankincense, 10 drops lavender, 10 drops tangerine and half a bottle of fractionated coconut oil. Put three drops on your hand, rub it all over your face, neck and decolletage, and then wipe off with a warm washcloth. Instant morning skin balancing.
HEADACHE AWAY OIL BLEND
I am prone to headaches. ALL. THE. HEADACHES. But sinus/stress headaches seem to catch me almost daily. And taking acetominophin or ibuprofen wrecks my stomach.
​
SO!
​
In a dropper bottle mix 10 drops peppermint, 10 drops lemon, and 10 drops lavender. Add three droppers full of fractionated coconut oil and shake.
​
Massage three drops onto your sinuses, temples, throat and the back of your neck.
