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 extreme dryness, eczema, perioral dermatitis, painful cystic acne, sensitive allergy-prone skin to the occasional cut, scrape, bug bite, 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 family and household staple, this Balm is also a beloved facial moisturizer for inflamed, reactive skin or for those with considerable health concerns or sensitivities.

Tamanu Oil is the foundation and star of this formula. This vibrant green oil is what gives our Recovery Balm its color, along with its ability to correct microbial imbalances, reduce inflammation and create an overall environment for healing. Like most of our Laurel Skin formulas, this Balm contains a 3-month whole plant infusion. Calendula, Comfrey and Yarrow are all skin-healing herbs that support new cell growth and regeneration. The microdosed essential oils in Recovery Balm are Lavender, Helichrysum and Lemon Balm; each with a unique relationship to microbiome and skin, included to balance and repair.

These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. While Recovery Balm has been an ongoing recommendation by dermatologists for perioral dermatitis, and we have obtained written testimonials from customers using it for eczema, shingles and general inflammation, we cannot guarantee those same results for every individual, nor can we advise on matters of health.

Helichrysum – This little yellow flower is as gentle as it is potent, reducing redness, swelling and irritation. It strengthens tissues and supports healing activity, minimizing the appearance of scars and broken capillaries.

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.

Pomegranate – One of the most beautiful oils that we work with, Pomegranate Seed Oil is rich and moisturizing. It is healing and balancing to skin barriers that have been damaged over time by inflammation.

Calendula – Our vibrant biodynamic Calendula is farmed and harvested just a few miles from our Laurel Skin apothecary-lab. Calendula is deeply restorative and healing to the skin, helpful for scarring and all forms of skin damage.

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 compromised alongside inflammatory skin conditions. Lavender promotes a healthy microbiome 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 to reduce free radical damage. It unburdens the skin and has an affinity to both the lymph and immune system, helping to regulate and balance both. Lemon Balm is considered to be a powerful antiviral. This plant contains Rosmarinic Acid which can have a positive effect on lymphedema.
