The Recovery Balm has become a cult favorite in the Laurel Skin line, one that has earned its rightful place in any medicine cabinet. It can be used as a helpful remedy for practically any skin ailment from eczema, perioral dermatitis, painful cystic acne, sensitive allergy-prone skin or the occasional cut, scrape, or rash. This multi-functional balm reduces the appearance of redness, swelling, and irritation while offering up a therapeutic dose of whole plant goodness to jump-start and support the skin’s own healing process. In addition to being a must-have for the medicine cabinet, this Balm is also a beloved facial moisturizer for inflamed, reactive skin or for those with considerable health concerns or sensitivities.

TAMANU – There is no replacement for our cool green Tamanu oil, which is a sacred plant medicine that thrives in multiple regions near the equator. It is anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antibacterial, and antifungal. The unique phytonutrient profile of this oil stimulates skin immunity and supports the skin’s healing process. Our Tamanu Oil is pressed fresh for Laurel Skin, and we work closely with Indigenous peoples on a small island off the coast of Australia in mutual exchange.

LAVENDER – Our custom-distilled, California-grown, biodynamic Lavender essential oil is anti-inflammatory, calming, and cooling to the skin. It soothes the nervous system, which is often under duress alongside inflammatory skin conditions. Lavender promotes healthy cellular functioning and prevents pathogenic bacteria from overpopulating the skin.

LEMON BALM – This nutrient-rich green leaf, also known as Melissa, is high in delicate antioxidants that work swiftly to reduce free radical damage. It is specific to mending and soothing inflammation, and it has an affinity to both the lymph and immune system and helps to regulate and balance both. Lemon Balm is considered to be a powerful antiviral. This plant contains Rosmarinic Acid which can have a reduction and positive effect on lymphedema.

Usage: Apply a very small amount (about 1/4 of a pea size) to face, neck, and chest after applying Elixir and Serum. This product can also be used on the body as needed.
