Meet the Muse | Lizzie, Collected
Southern California born + raised. Surf, Pilates, and an outlook that brings good energy into the room. For Lizzie Martinez, this chapter of the Clean Living Collective starts in Encinitas, California.
Her Collective brings together the places she returns to and the products she keeps close. A matcha at Coffee Dose. A conversation about ingredients and her everyday moisturizer. A board under her arm at Swami’s.
Body: mahogany tonka + oud.
Face: white tea + vetiver.
One grounds. One lifts.
First stop: Coffee Dose
Immersion Café
Coffee Dose is Lizzie’s pick for this chapter in Encinitas. Her order, the Mary Matcha, becomes a small pause in the story: the cup, the first sip, the shift from one part of the day to the next.
It is the kind of detail we want to keep in the Haus Directory. A real place, a personal pick, and something to come back to when you are exploring the neighborhood.

My Signature Pairing
Before heading out this morning, I reached for my signature pairing.
Plant Moisturizer: Body Butter
scent: mahogany tonka +oud
My skin has always leaned acne-prone, so texture matters more to me than almost anything. After dealing with hormonal acne for years, I naturally gravitated toward lightweight moisturizers that absorb beautifully without feeling heavy or greasy. Unscented [naked plant] has become one of those products I never have to think twice about. It simply feels like me.

Plant Moisturizer: Face Oil
scent: white tea + vetiver

Fresh Air
La Jolla Cove
My next stop is almost always the ocean. La Jolla Cove has become one of those places I return to whenever I need a little perspective. I usually bring my journal, find a quiet place to sit, and spend a little time writing before heading back into the day. Fresh air has a way of clearing my thoughts. The rhythm of the waves reminds me to slow down. Even twenty minutes here changes the pace of the rest of my day.
