What can Astrology tell you about your skin and beauty regime? Turns out, a lot.

"Astrology can not only share our emotional and spiritual predispositions, but it can share practical information on how we can take better care of your bodies," says Shereen Campbell, astrologer, reiki master teacher, shamanic Reiki 1 healer, certified crystal healer and founder of My Little Magic Shop.

To find out more about how our birth date can help shape our ideal beauty regimen we turned to Campbell and superstar astrologers Ellen and Imani, hosts of The Woke Mystix and authors of Astrology SOS, to get all the game-changing details.

Water Signs

General tip: "As a water sign, your skin is as sensitive as your heart. Going with products that are natural, hypoallergenic, not animal tested or specifically created for sensitive skin is your best bet," says Campbell. "Also, water-based products will definitely add a welcome boost to your skincare routine. What's most important is that you change your routine as needed, as your body is constantly responding to outside stimuli."

Cancer: June 22 — July 22

"You heal most when you delve into water, so utilize a skin routine that allows you to tap into the healing properties of water," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Spritz your face with rose water as part of your daily morning routine to always make sure you got yourself centered."

Pisces: February 19 — March 20

"You need healing, but you also need something fun that allows you to play," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Lay with cucumbers over your eyes and a face mask sheet soaked in a fruity serum to excite the senses and allow for pure relaxation."

"You're at your best when you focus on the deeper elements of your healing, tap in and detox from the root," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Use a charcoal-based clay mask to dig up black heads and any other toxic materials that may have permeated through your skin."

Fire Signs

General tip: "You are fire signs and therefore will naturally attract spice to your life," says Campbell. "This can keep life exciting for you, but can also make you prone to inflammation and heightened responses to stimuli. For this reason, redness, blotchiness and rashes might occur especially when you are stressed."

Leo: July 23 — August 22

"You are a natural show stopper, and you love glamor when it comes to your skincare as well," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Sheet masks with a luxurious element such as gold flakes or infused with essential oils gives you the spa experience at home."

Aries: March 21 — April 19

"When you are constantly on-the-go, you need a skincare routine that can keep up with you," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Multipurpose palettes such as duo blush/eyeshadow kits are life savers for your action oriented life."

Sagittarius: November 22 — December 21

Air Signs

General tip: "Being an air sign, moisture is incredibly important to you as you might be prone to dry skin," says Campbell. "You want to make sure that you're hydrating to keep your skin moist and supple. Collagen will do wonders when added to your diet. Plus, washing your skin with products that are not naturally drying will keep the wrinkles away."

Libra: September 23 — October 23

"You're all about balance and what brings you the most peace in your routine, let that be your biggest priority," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Finding a facial cleanser and cream that allows for a healthy balance of the skin is what will leave you feeling the most balanced and ready for your day."

Gemini: May 21 — June 21

"You move to the beat of your own drum and thrive most when you change it up," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: focus on allowing yourself to try different things whether it be new serums and masks. When you're done with your application use a crystal face roller to soothe the skin as your mainstay through all the experimentation."

Aquarius: January 20 — February 18

"You're a bearer of water, so even if you like to stay invigorated through the mind you like to do so with water as an active element," say Ellen and Imani. "Pro tip: Utilize a face steamer as a way to tap into your air element with the assistance of water to purify your skin."
