We’ve all heard of Great Aunt Calpurnia, who according to our Goth Mother Morticia Addams, 

“she danced naked in the town square and enslaved a minister”

and wish to emulate her terrifying power. So I have brought together some of my favourite simple beauty rituals to help us embody this queen. 

Beauty rituals can be much more than skincare routines and makeup applications—they can be powerful acts of self-care and magic. By incorporating witchcraft into your beauty regimen, you can enhance your natural radiance and infuse your daily practices with intention and spiritual energy. Here are some witchy beauty tips, rituals, and spells to help you glow from the inside out.

1. Moon Water Facial Toner

I love working with moonwater and make sure to wash my face with moon water the first morning after I make a batch to really set my intentions. Moon water, charged under the moonlight, is also a magical tool for cleansing and refreshing your skin. Here’s how to make, use and store it:

How to Make Moon Water:

1. Fill a glass jar (Ideally with a lid if putting outside over night) with clean, filtered or tap water.
2. Place the jar under the light of the full moon overnight to charge it with lunar energy. This can be in your bedroom, on a self by a window etc if you don’t have access to outdoor space.
3. In the morning, seal the jar and store it in a cool, dark place.

How to Use:

• Use moon water as a facial toner by applying it with a cotton pad after cleansing your face. Visualise the lunar energy infusing your skin with clarity and radiance…..Or just splash it on there, like I do! 

How to Store Moon water:

To use through to the next moonphase, freeze your moonwater into icecubes so you have easy access to a daily dose until you can make your next batch.

2. Herbal Beauty Steam

I am forever congested and in Summer when hayfever strikes, it can be very unpleasant so I’ve been rather fond of Herbal steams. Snazzy, eh? Herbal steams open pores, cleanse impurities, and infuse your skin with the benefits of natural herbs. They also provide a moment of relaxation and meditation as well as helping you sound less like a railway station tannoy. Multipurpose.

Ingredients:

• Dried herbs like chamomile, lavender, rosemary, or rose petals.
• A large bowl of hot water. (Be careful not to put boiling water into anything that will crack like glass, learn from my mistakes, coven!) 

How to Perform:

1. Add a handful of dried herbs to the hot water.
2. Cover your head with a towel and lean over the bowl, allowing the steam to envelop your face.
3. Breathe deeply, relax, and visualise the herbal energy purifying and revitalising your skin.

I like to add music which matches the energy I am trying to tap into as well but you can do this in silence and just really lean into the relaxation part….just don’t fall asleep.

So you feel all lovely inside and out, like you deserve!

4. Crystal-Infused Beauty Oils

We seriously don’t need another excuse to get a crystal out and start getting the vibrations up. So, since we’ve all brought so many of the bloody things and we can’t just keep telling people that they are just for decoration, you’ll be happy to know that that you can now tell people that crystals are powerful tools in witchcraft, and their energies can be infused into beauty oils for added magic. See, I got you. This is a coven. I’m never going to tell you that you have enough crystals. Ever. If anything, get more. Support local businesses.

Ingredients:

• Carrier oil (such as jojoba or almond oil).
• Crystals like rose quartz (for love and beauty), amethyst (for calm and healing), or clear quartz (for amplification).
• A small glass bottle or jar.

How to Make:

1. Place a cleansed crystal into the glass bottle or jar.
2. Fill the bottle with the carrier oil.
3. Let the oil infuse with the crystal’s energy for at least 24 hours.

How to Use:

• Use the crystal-infused oil as a moisturiser or massage oil, visualising its energy enhancing your beauty and well-being.

Don’t worry I’ll post a full focus piece on crystals and beauty magic soon!

5. Glamour Bath Ritual

If you’re anything like me, then everything you do demands a pinch of glamour and so washing one’s self is no different. A glamour bath is a luxurious way to enhance your natural allure and boost your confidence.

Ingredients:

• Sea salt (for cleansing).
• Rose petals (for love and beauty).
• Lavender (for relaxation).
• A few drops of essential oils like rose or jasmine.
• A candle.

How to Perform:

1. Run a warm bath and add the sea salt, rose petals, lavender, and essential oils.
2. Light a candle and place it near the bath.
3. Enter the bath and soak, visualizing any negative energy washing away and being replaced by a radiant glow.
4. Focus on a glamour affirmation such as:

“I am radiant, beautiful, and confident in my skin.”

6. Makeup Magic

For many of us the act of putting on makeup is a sacred ritual in itself – life is a performance after all, girlhood is a concept and witchcraft is fun…so why not transform your makeup routine into a magical ritual with these simple practices?

• Intentional Application: As you apply each product, focus on your intention. For example, as you apply foundation, visualise it as a protective shield that enhances your natural beauty. I love using this Korean Missha brand BB Cream with SPF40 as I am all about the sunscreen.
• Symbolic Shapes: Draw small, discreet symbols or sigils with your makeup (e.g., a small pentacle with eyeliner) to imbue your look with magical energy.
• Bless Your Products: Hold each makeup product in your hands and say a blessing, charging it with your desired intention (e.g., “May this lipstick bring me confidence and charm”). If you are able to, place them in a moonlit spot to charge and cleanse them. 
• Cleanse your products: Burning incense over your items will help cleanse them and remove toxic energies. I don’t know about you but I know where I’ve ended up some nights so it’s good to regulary do this.  

7. Hair Enchantment

Some ancient cultures believed a womans hair to be able to enslave men and was a source for evil. So in celebration of our ancestors here are some ways that you can use your hair to be a conduit for magical energy:

• Herbal Rinses: Create herbal rinses with rosemary (for growth), chamomile (for shine), or sage (for protection). After washing your hair, pour the rinse over your hair as a final step, visualizing its magical properties infusing your strands.
• Crystal Combs: Use a comb with crystal handles or embed small crystals in the handle of your brush. As you brush your hair, visualise the crystal’s energy enhancing your hair’s strength and beauty. Also great to help cleanse any toxic energy from your precious strands.
• Braiding Spells: As you braid your hair, focus on weaving in your intentions. For example, a simple three-strand braid can represent body, mind, and spirit harmony. You can even do a top twists version of this which I like to do when I really want my hair of the way.
• Enchanting Oils: Use oils such as coconut or almond oil inflused with ingrediants and intentions. Our South Asian girlies have also bestrowed upon use the knowledge of Rosemary oil, which has been trending all over tiktok but you can make your own at home as well. We are forever grateful. THANK YOU. When I’m time senstive this is my go to for hair oil: Natures Choice Rosemary oil

8. DIY Beauty Charms

Create beauty charms to carry with you or keep in your beauty area to enhance your magical energy. I like to enchant a mirror compact and it’s contents to carry it around with me. I’m also prone to carrying little witch bags or even mini witch bottles with specific intents attached to them (I’ll make a post about these soon) 

Ingredients:

• A small pouch.
• Crystals (like rose quartz or amethyst).
• Herbs (like lavender or rose petals).
• A written intention or affirmation.

How to Make:

1. Fill the pouch with the crystals, herbs, and written intention.
2. Hold the pouch in your hands and charge it with your desired energy, visualising your intention being amplified.

How to Use:

• Keep the charm in your purse, pocket, or near your beauty products to continually boost your magical energy. If it’s a witch bottle, you can take it out now and then to give it a lil shake to futher activate it (or get your rage out, either/or)

9. Morning and Night Rituals

Incorporate magical rituals into your morning and night routines to set the tone for your day and ensure a restful night. As an ADHD witch, keeping a sleep routine has been key to improving my mental health, getting into a regular routine (and thus not fucking my life up as much, which reduces stress, huzzah!) and ‘discovering mornings’ has really helped me navigate life. I now wake up around 6/6.30am each morning to get a ritual, journaling or art in to help supercharge my day. I also do the same at night, but do my meditations as I go to sleep, as it helps me drop off and keep the speeding thoughts at bay (Big Shout out to my ‘brain never shuts up ever‘ people in the audience, I see you and we’ve got this…kinda!). 

Morning Ritual:

1. Start with a few deep breaths and a positive affirmation. Again these could be beautiul and well thought out affirmations or they can also be funny and energy lifting such as looking into the mirror and going:

Oh my gwad, look at that fine example of an ass. And, wait, what, I own this ass? I grew this myself? I manifested this magnifciant superior, posterior, you say?! Well, lets see what else amazing I will manifest today”

2. Cleanse your face with moon water or a herbal cleanser. Also, slather on SPF50. Trust your fabulous Witch Aunt on this one, you’ll thank me when you’re older.

3.Apply crystal-infused oil or your favorite moisturizer with intention, visualizing your desired outcome for the day.

Night Ritual:

1. Cleanse your face and remove any makeup, visualising the day’s stress washing away.
2. Apply a soothing lotion or serum, infused with lavender oil for relaxation.
3. Spend a few moments in meditation, focusing on gratitude and self-love.

Now remember darlings, use these beauty tips to help you feel even more love for yourself and remember, when you start to feel a bit low in the old self esteem remember, what would Great Aunt Calpurnia say to you? 

Exactly. Stop crying over rat people who don’t deserve you and go enslave some ministers. Eat the rich, I dunno, go create chaos. I believe in you. 

By incorporating these witchy beauty tips, rituals, and spells into your routine, you can enhance not only your physical appearance and malevolent allure but also your spiritual well-being. Embrace the magic within and let your inner and outer beauty shine brightly my pretties, mwahaha!
