1) Rose Quartz + Aquamarine Beauty Water

We used both raw aquamarine and rose quartz stones. Having this beauty water around is lovely just because the crystals are so pretty to look at!

Aquamarine

Aquamarine resonates with the energy of the ocean, helping the wearer connect with the natural energy and spirit of the beautiful ocean. Raw Aquamarine helps restore tranquility, making this not only a beauty ritual, but also a stress reducing ritual for the morning or evening. Raw aquamarine also helps to connect you with your true self, making it a useful stone to replenish  self-love and confidence.

Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz Stone is the stone of unconditional love. It activates the heart chakra and fills your body with positive energy. It cleanses and revitalizes your auric field, releasing all the stress, tension, anger and resentment you may be carrying with you. It replaces these negative energies with feelings of hope, faith and peace for the future. The powerful love vibrations penetrate your heart down to a cellular level, rejuvenating and reprogramming your cells.

Make Your Own Crystal Beauty Water

Start by cleansing your crystals with warm filtered water. Rinse them a few times to get any dirt or loose particles off (remember these are raw crystals, so it’s natural for them to have some earth matter still on them).

When you are done cleansing them, place the crystals in a glass bowl and cover the gems with filtered water.

Set the bowl in direct sunlight starting at sunrise and let it absorb the sun’s energy until sunset. Alternatively, you can leave the aquamarine under a full moon for the night to harness moon energy.

Bring the water inside and splash it on your face as you say self-love affirmations. You may say, “I am worthy,” and “I love myself,” or you may use something that speaks to your own desires or self-love.

Refill your bowl with water and put it back in the sun to have a constant flow of beauty water available.

2) Crystal-Infused Face Oil Mist

Once you make your crystal beauty water, you can use that to wash your face or include that water to create energetic serums and lotions the same way you would with water.

Add a post-cleansing, finishing oil mist to your daily facial care regime. A blend of crystal-infused water, jojoba, frankincense and sandalwood oils is both soothing and renewing. This balancing combination will moisturize dry, winter skin while activating your skin cells and rejuvenating your energy.
