I have to admit that I hold a secret love for all things spooky, including Halloween. There’s nothing like the love of a haunted holiday to inspire imagination, fun and a dress up.
The week before Halloween was going great. I was sewing my outfit for a Halloween fundraiser cruise, when I caught sight of myself in the mirror. Low and behold there were some unexpectedly spooky spots sprouting on my face. I realized it must my monthly pre-menstrual skin coming up to haunt me.
So, of course, I did what every good naturopath may do in this situation - I grabbed the witch. Witch hazel, that is. I made a pre-menstrual skin spray – which for the purpose of Halloween I’ll call “Spooky Skin Spray”. It had witch hazel, calendula and tea tree oil. Here's how you can make it:
The cruise was great, and although my spots didn't disappear completely, the potion had a little magic in it to help my skin for Halloween. Just remember this skin spray can be made whenever you’re feeling a little scared of your skin, not just at Halloween!
