How Does the Moon Beauty Calendar Work?
The moon beauty calendar combines astronomically precise moon phase calculation with the centuries-old tradition of the lunar calendar. For each cosmetic goal, the algorithm rates two factors: the current moon phase (waxing or waning) and the zodiac sign the Moon currently occupies. The result is a daily score from 0 to 100.
Moon Phases and Beauty Care
Waning Moon 🌖🌗🌘
The cleansing phase: perfect for detox, deep cleansing and haircuts intended to slow down regrowth. According to tradition, the body also detoxifies more easily.
Full Moon & New Moon 🌕🌑
The full moon intensifies the effect of care products. The new moon suits rest and regeneration — a good moment for gentle, restorative treatments.
