A serum in a refreshing mist targets pores to limit build-up with the help of herbal allies meadowsweet, willow bark, and witch hazel. Emollient roots and aloe infuse hydration and soothe irritation. While licorice brightens and green tea protects against oxidative damage. This whole-plant formula increases circulation to help break up stagnation to revive and clarify the skin.
The beneficial herbal extracts are housed in an uplifting hydrosol medley of spearmint & lemon thyme.
Scent: A fresh bundle of herbs and a hint of earthy roots. Contains distilled plant waters from hydrosols of spearmint & lemon thyme. No added essential oils.
Skin Types: Breakout-prone, dehydrated skin that has excess to adequate oil production. Suitable for most, including mildly sensitive.
Texture: Mid-weight mist that leaves a noticeable layer of humectants that will absorb slowly as part of the liposomal formulation. Applying follow-up steps like a moisturizer and/or oil will increase absorption time. Due to the rich polysaccharides & phospholipids, you may notice some separation, a gentle shake will disperse the formula evenly.
Botanical Profile
We start with a base of local, small farm-produced hydrosols that are distilled in copper vessels using fresh plant material. This captures all the volatiles including the cellular water from the living plant. We feel this vibrant approach creates the most effective antioxidant profile.
Fresh lemon thyme hydrosol is a calming decongestant. Increases circulation to help break up stagnation to clarify the skin.
Fresh spearmint hydrosol, a more gentle approach vs. the essential oil that cools the skin and is an effective antimicrobial to lessen or prevent breakouts.
Fresh witch hazel hydrosol is free of alcohol which is common in commercial witch hazel. As a light distillation, it offers a very gentle approach to help cleanse the pores and balance oil production without impacting the lipid barrier.
A house-infused medley of meadowsweet, willow bark, licorice, burdock, and green tea liposomal extract softens the skin, infuses hydration, protects against oxidative damage, and clears congestion.
Ritual:
After cleansing, shake well and spray a few times onto the skin, taking deep breaths. Careful not to get any into your eyes. While the skin is still wet apply serum and face oil to seal in hydration.
For dry patches, add the toner to a soft cloth and gently massage to exfoliate. It can be used to set mineral makeup or any time of day to refresh the skin.
