Formulated with 8 powerful, medicinal herbs, our Blemish Treatment was designed to address both topical treatment and nervous system nurturing. When it comes to supporting acne, a varied approach is best. That includes internal support first and foremost, addressing inflammation and microbial balance topically with plants, and caring for the nervous system is also essential.

Two of the most effective and heaviest-hitting plants for microbial imbalances and deep anti-inflammatory support are BLACK CUMIN SEED and TAMANU. Fresh, raw, and unrefined, these two oils are blended with therapeutic doses of THYME and HELICHRYSUM. A deceptively simple formula of just seven plants, with each one having a profound effect on microbiome balancing and soothing inflamed skin.

The soothing aromatic essential oils communicate through both receptors in the epidermis and through scent inhalation to our limbic system in the brain. Various plant compounds in LAVENDER and BLUE CHAMOMILE can create a sense of safety and peace, allowing an overworked and stressed nervous system to rest and sink more deeply into a reparative state.

SENSORY PROFILE
How it feels: a super lightweight lipid concentrate that disappears quickly into the applied area
How it smells: ethereal and deeply medicinal

PHYTOCHEMISTRY PROFILE
Blemish Treatment contains these notable phytonutrients, along with many others:

essential fatty acids (including omega 3 and GLA), vitamin E, palmitic acid, phytosterols, phytosteroids (triterpenoids), calophyllolide, lactones, coumarins, various polyphenols, thymoquinone, terpenes, alkaloids, chamazulene, bisabolol, linalool, matricin, thymol, carvacrol, pinenes, camphor, neryl acetate, italidiones, trace minerals and tannins

USAGE
First, cleanse, hydrate, and moisturize skin normally. Then dispense one drop to fingertip and use that single drop to treat all active blemishes or areas of irritation. While safe for daytime use, we recommend applying Blemish Treatment in the evening for best results.

RITUAL
A Ritual is, at its core, a time for mindfulness, stillness, and reflection. Acne and breakouts can be upsetting and triggering. They are also your body’s way of communicating, signaling, and responding. Make your Blemish Treatment ritual a moment to thank your precious and wise body for caring for you, and share these plants as additional support. This moment of acknowledgement makes a beautiful nighttime ritual before letting skin rest and repair overnight.

Use within six months of opening and before the recommended use-by date on the bottom of the bottle. Store in a cool, dry, and dark place.

100% Whole Plant Organic

BLACK CUMIN SEED OIL
This deeply nourishing seed oil is used in herbal medicine for its ability to calm inflamed, reactive skin while supporting balance during breakouts. Rich in protective plant compounds, it helps quiet visible redness and supports skin that is prone to irritation and sensitivity.

TAMANU OIL
A deep green oil revered in traditional tropical medicine, Tamanu is known for its relationship to skin recovery and resilience. This raw, unrefined oil is pressed exclusively for Laurel Skin by an indigenous tribe off the coast of Australia. It supports visible healing, comfort, and tissue repair, and is especially helpful when skin is inflamed, compromised, or slow to recover from blemishes.

THYME
Earthy Thyme essential oil is traditionally used to support clarity and balance at the skin’s surface. In Blemish Treatment, it helps discourage microbial imbalance while supporting the skin’s natural ecosystem, without overwhelming healthy skin flora.

GERMAN BLUE CHAMOMILE
Rich in naturally occurring chamazulene, German Blue Chamomile is a cooling, calming plant that helps soothe visible inflammation and irritation. It offers immediate relief to stressed, reactive skin.

HELICHRYSUM
This small yellow flower is as gentle as it is potent. Helichrysum supports tissue strength and comfort while helping ease visible redness and swelling, making it a trusted ally for skin moving through healing and recovery.

˚organically grown ingredient

Laurel Skin formulas set a benchmark for high ingredient and formulation standards that the beauty industry would collectively consider unreasonable. Here are a few highlights that set our Blemish Treatment apart from other facial oils.

  • Exclusive use of freshly pressed, unrefined, virgin oils to maintain antioxidant and nutrient availability
  • Exclusive use of 100% organic, biodynamic and regeneratively grown plants
  • No lab-made, synthetic isolates, bioidenticals, or biomimetics – only whole plants

    • The abbreviated list above cannot be found elsewhere – our level of care and integrity is proudly unreasonable.

    Bacterial Imbalance
    There are many different kinds of breakouts, and most aren’t truly “acne.” The term acne is often used as a catch-all for pimples, cysts, and congestion, but it originally refers to a specific bacterial strain called Propionibacterium acnes. Because of this, many products focus on killing bacteria on contact. Yet for so many people, breakouts persist or even worsen.

    From an herbalist’s perspective, this makes sense. Our skin is home to a diverse microbiome, to the tune of over 1000 species, including beneficial flora that help keep potentially harmful bacteria in balance. When we aggressively strip everything away with antimicrobial cleansers and toners, we disrupt that ecosystem and create more inflammation in the process.

    Quorum Signaling + Whole Plant Intelligence
    Quorum signaling is a way that microbes communicate with each other, dictating behavior and essentially determining whether those microbes are harmful or not. Plants, especially essential oils, have a way of intercepting that communication. As opposed to “killing bacteria”, they instead can inhibit bad behavior, keeping the peace in a diverse microbiome ecosystem.

    Similarly, essential oils can determine how our own bodies and cells respond to stressors and threats. Essential oils can stimulate our antioxidant response elements (ARE), increasing our own cellular production of antioxidants. Essential oils can also inhibit inflammatory biochemical pathways and inhibit inflammatory enzymes in the body. If that weren’t enough, essential oils also reduce nerve ending inflammation, returning to that sense of making the body feel safe and secure.

    Supporting skin through balance and reducing inflammation, rather than waging war on bacteria, is a missing piece in allopathic medicine. Specific plants that calm the skin, support the nervous system, and microbiome are key for creating conditions where skin can actually recover and move toward clarity.
