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 Recovery Balm its color, along with its ability to correct microbial imbalances, reduce inflammation and create an overall environment for healing. Like most of Laurel Skin's 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.

How to Use:

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 often as needed. If using as a body moisturizer or body healing treatment, this can be aided with the use of a Hydrosol.

Use within 6 months of opening and by the recommended use-by date, which is found on the bottom of the bottle. Store this product in a cool, dry and dark place.

If your Balm melts in transit, it could have textural changes that make it less smooth. While this does not affect product performance, a smooth Balm texture is often more desirable. If you would like to restore your Balm’s texture, follow the instructions in this video. Do not leave your Balm in a hot location like your car or near a sunny window.
