What's up, friend? Today's episode is with my acupuncturist.

Acupuncturist. Is that the word? Acupuncturist? Let me see. Yeah, it is. Why does that sound weird?

My acupuncturist. Am I saying it weird? Today's episode is with her. She is my magical magician who sticks needles in my body and it makes me feel so good.

She also does my lymphatic facials and she is incredible.

cheeks. She gets in there with gloves and moves everything around and it really sculpts the cheekbones.

So again, I know that a buckle massage or a facial specialist may not be in your area or in your budget. Totally get it.

It's definitely an investment. I'm not going to lie. I will do an episode after this one on my

deep puff tips that you can do at home. But if you ever are getting a massage or you are needing
