THE POTENT PLANTS WITHIN
Four types of healing Calendula flower capture all of her resins, saponins, tannins, carotenoids, phytosterols, minerals, and flavonoids, including quercetin and rutin. Two Milky Oat infusions, alongside housemade Oat Milk provide B vitamins, vitamin E, polysaccharides, amino acids and peptides. Together, Calendula and Oat make the perfect calming, soothing combination – providing ample nourishment, protection, hydration, and relief that all skin types and conditions can benefit from.
LAUREL SKIN COMPOUNDS
A first-of-its-kind category, Laurel Skin Compounds are herbalist-created skin supplements; carefully formulated to replace lab-made synthetic options with a whole-plant alternative. Used by the drop to complement our Hydrating Elixirs, each concentrated plant medicine blend targets specific skin concerns and supports symptoms of imbalance as they arise, allowing for even more customization in your Laurel Skin Ritual.
Calendula – This gentle flower medicine is lymph supportive and can be applied topically to prevent stagnation of fluid in our tissues. It accelerates the healing process and prevents scarring. Its carotenoids and flavonoids are specific for sun damage prevention and repair. Calendula is gentle enough to support the healing process of depleted skin barriers. This vibrant orange flower has a balancing effect on the microbiome by feeding beneficial bacterial with its mineral content, while encouraging the immune system to prevent single colony imbalance. Calendula is considered the “bringer of sunshine” and is well suited to fungal acne and topical fungal imbalances of all kinds. This plant’s unique triterpene acids impede specific inflammatory pathways, like NF-kB, which has been linked to cancer and permanent DNA damage.
Oat – Commonly referred to in herbalism as Milky Oats, this plant provides instant soothing relief to irritation and inflammation. Oats are rich in zinc, manganese, and silica, making this herb excel at strengthening and firming connective tissue and skin. It is a nutritive tonic for tired skin, providing a slow and steady type of nourishment. Both Oat Milk and Milky Oat seed pods are hydrating and barrier supportive, due to their unique phytochemical makeup which includes both ceramides and amino acids.

Pop, Pop, Pop, Swoosh
I recall the sound of petals brushing the sides of my harvest basket and feel the weight of the resinous flowering tops in my hand. Calendula is a plant I could write about for days – poetically, energetically and chemically.
It is hard to express how beneficial this plant is, because it spans from an acne treatment to a UV protectant. It is liquid sunshine for depression, stagnation and imbalance.
