Ruby’s Zodiac Skincare Guide

Soothing Moisturizer

Aries rules the head and isn’t exactly known for their patience. Their lives are fairly action packed and they don’t like to spend too long on a skincare routine. Since they’re always on the go, facial wipes make a great option for keeping fresh. A balanced moisturizer with therapeutic ingredients to keep stress-induced breakouts and clogged pores at bay is helpful. Tamanu oil is really soothing for the Ram folks while therapeutic essential oils of turmeric, clary sage, basil, and cardamom make great choices.

Bath Bombs

Taurus loves everything about self-care, but their favorite items are usually fragrant and intoxicating bath bombs. Since Taurus relishes in treating themselves but tend to have more practical routines, taking time with a fizzing bath bomb is a nice and special break. Look for ingredients like epsom salt and baking soda along with floral and woodsy essential oils like cedar wood or ylang ylang for smooth luxe skin.

Try putting some epsom salt, baking soda, a dash of water, and a few essential oils into a blender and pouring the mixture into your favorite small gocup to sit overnight. Voila! Bath bomb.

Gel Masks

Geminis are known as the talkers of the zodiac. Their skin can be prone to puffiness and dark eye circles, especially if they’re tired or stressed. Gel masks are soothing and refreshing for sociable Gemini. Aloe, witch hazel, and green tea make great choices for soothing, nourishing, and toning the sign of the twins.

Make your own gel mask by blending some aloe gel, a little green clay, your favorite essential oil, and some water (be careful to avoid the eye area when you apply the mask!).

Essential Oil Baths

Cancer is the classic bath junkie of the signs. Ruled by the Moon, it’s especially important to get a bath in on lunations like a Full or New Moon. Essential oil baths are easily adjusted for the ever-shifting emotional needs of a Cancerian. Rosemary can be strengthening, while chamomile will soothe the spirit, and jasmine awakens tired intuition. Play with your favorites and choose intuitively for the best results.

Body Creams and Butters

Leo needs to feel slathered and pampered after a long day. Whipped body creams or butters loaded with nourishing oils like olive or almond oil take center stage. Choosing a formula with therapeutic grade essential oils is important. Only the best for Leo skin! My favorites for the royalty of the zodiac are petitgrain, green mandarin, and patchouli. Organic butters like shea or kokum are my favorite base butter ingredients for thirsty lion skin.

Natural Face Wash

Virgo has the most sensitive skin of the zodiac wheel. They also need a simple but effective routine they can stick with. A wash with a neutral castile base and herbal infusions is great for the sign of the fair maiden. Virgo rules holistic herbs like lavender and fennel, so herbal infusions are great for their complexions. Follow a gentle wash twice a day with a simple moisturizer like coconut oil. Basic routines keep Virgo happy and glowing.

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: Restart spray wash is infused with herbs like irish moss, rhodiola, juniper berry, and neem as well as therapeutic essential oils to mineralize, calm, and soften the skin.

Moisturizing Masks

Like most other air signs, Libra is prone to dry skin. Moisturizing masks do wonders for their complexions. Usually suffering from breakouts or lackluster skin tone, these sensitive folks need a routine to nix their worries. Masks are a great way for airy Libra to disconnect and recharge for a while. Look for soothing magnolia extract, brightening geranium, and soft florals like peony or rose.

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: Doll Parts whipped body cream, applied heavily twice a week, makes a fantastic moisturizing mask.

Salt Scrub+Soak

Sensitive Scorpio loves to absorb energy everywhere they go. Their cleansing rituals are private and often take a long time. Lounging in the tub is ideal for a Scorpio to escape and scrub their life pressures away with a therapeutic sea salt scrub and soak. Look for scrubs with whole and pulverized salts of several kinds. After enjoying a cleansing soak and sloughing off dead skin with old energies, the broody Scorp can resurrect themselves again.

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: Tiki Baby salt soak, made with softening and cleansing coconut powder and some therapeutic citrus essential oils, works great.

Therapeutic+Moisturizing Face Oils

Speedy Sag is always out for adventure. They don’t like to put major effort into a routine. Moisturizing is essential for the demands put on their skin. Often Sag people have oily skin with dry spots. They need to use a simple but balanced facial oil and apply a thick layer as a mask at least once weekly. I love to recommend herbal infusions like rhodiola or neem for circulation and to prevent bacterial acne.

Castile Bar Soap+All Over Moisturizer

Cappies like to keep it short and classy. They’re the ones who will stick to the same bar soap their entire life. Think along the lines of a castile bar brand. While the baby mild version is ideal for sensitive and hard-working goats, the moisturizer is key. Prone to dry skin and long hours studying, Capricorns love an all over moisturizer that can handle their face and body with a subtle lingering fragrance, especially earthy scents like vetiver.

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: Witchcraft body oil is great for a Capricorn’s face and bod with therapeutic essential oils of geranium, ginger, and vetiver.

Oils and Massage Rollers

Aquarius lives in their own world and surely loves their skincare routine to be a little strange as well. They follow trends and often tell their friends what they’re into. Aquarius rules the energetic body, and their skin needs to be touched. Jade rollers are a great way to keep the fluids moving and moisturizers locked in. Aquarians have a flower child soul so patchouli is an easy go-to. It’s also great for the skin!

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: Wild Heart body oil can be used everywhere and features moisturizing carrier oils and therapeutic grade patchouli, litsea, palmarosa, and basil oils. It smells intoxicating and keeps skin glowing.

Charcoal Mask+Soak

Pisces rules the deep, dark ocean. Like Scorpio, these sensitive little fish tend to absorb energies from their environment. Taking time out to soak in a tub can restore their calm nature and provide much needed solitary time. Charcoal is a powerful detoxifier and binds itself to pretty much everything, drawing it out. It’s essentially a bath exorcism. Pisces does well with grounding essential oils as well, like cedar wood and clove.

Sabbath Wolfe product rec: The Hail Satin salt soak is great for Pisces because its loose powders can be blended with a little olive oil and used as an exfoliating face mask. The salt soak itself is powerfully detoxifying and soothing.
