After trying multiple other kinds of lash serums which created irritation and more visible veins on the eye lid I knew I had to create my own! With extensive research, trial and error, I found a solution. LASH HEX was created.
Combing only two main ingredients, ricinus communis seed oil and rosemary oil. Castor oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, a natural moisturizer. It can stimulate circulation, which helps deliver blood flow and healthy nutrients to the hair follicles that supports lash growth. Rosemary oil stimulates hair growth, improves circulation, protects hair from breakage, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent and soothes irritation. It has been studied and found to increase hair growth similar to minoxidil.
With detailed insights into over 400 herbs and their mystical properties, a must have in your knowledge arsenal. It features illustrations for easy identification of every herb, in addition to common names, use, and rulership. Gain a deeper understanding of the historical and cultural significance of each herb, enriching your practice with traditional knowledge passed down through generations.

One serum that everyone should be using…Vitamin C.
Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals, which can cause cellular damage and accelerate the aging process. It plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis, which is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness which reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C inhibits the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin discoloration, leading to a more even skin tone and a radiant complexion.
Fun Fact: Vitamin C Boosts the effectiveness of sunscreen! When used in conjunction with sunscreen, Vitamin C can enhance the effectiveness of sun protection. It helps neutralize free radicals generated by UV exposure and provides an additional layer of defense against sun damage.
Taking a multivitamin offers a convenient and effective way to ensure that your body receives essential nutrients for optimal health and well-being. I am huge on ingredients and finding a good multivitamin is hard. I love that these are also great for immune support, contains minerals, and has probiotics!
These are perfect for spring! Cute little daisies that come in a variety of colors, there’s several color options to chose from. I have super thin hair, the bigger clips don’t work in my hair, yet these are perfect! Not to big, not to small.
