Laurel Recovery Balm: Soothe + Mend

A must-have balm to support, mend + soothe

“This is my favourite winter time product. I spend a lot of time outdoors and this balm gives me a barrier against the wind and cold on Ottawa winter days. I also use it on my kiddo’s cheeks before we venture outside.”                          -Sarah

Laurel Recovery Balm, a beloved staple in the Laurel Skin line, it offers versatile relief for various skin issues from dryness to eczema, acne, and more. This multi-functional balm reduces redness, swelling, and irritation while supporting the skin's healing process.

Tamanu Oil, the star ingredient, corrects microbial imbalances and reduces inflammation. A 3-month whole plant infusion of Calendula, Comfrey, and Yarrow promotes cell regeneration. Microdosed Lavender, Helichrysum, and Lemon Balm essential oils balance and repair the skin's microbiome.

Laurel Recovery Balm is a must have for all medicine cabinets and especially for those on a healing journey from inflamed, reactive skin, cystic acne or for those with more considerable health related sensitivities.
Suitable Skin Types: Sensitive, reactive, severely dry, and injured skin types. It is an exceptional remedy for compromised lipid barriers, post-procedure healing, sunburns, wind-burn, eczema, dermatitis, and severe chapping or flaking.

HELICHRYSUM: 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: 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. Pressed fresh for Laurel Skin, who also works closely with Indigenous peoples on a small island off the coast of Australia in mutual exchange.

POMEGRANATE: Rich and moisturizing. It is healing and balancing to skin barriers that have been damaged over time by inflammation.

CALENDULA: Laurel's Calendula is farmed and harvested locally in California. Calendula is deeply restorative and healing to the skin, helpful for scarring and all forms of skin damage.

LAVENDER: Laurel's 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.

amazing balm

"this is my favourite balm of the 3 from Laurel. I use it as a moisturizer on my face, after the oil serum, and it leaves my skin very nourished and calm and more even toned. It helps if I have a breakout, or a cut, or a mosquito bite even. . . . and on my face I find it helps diminishing my deep wrinkles as well. I find The smell beautiful and light, not overpowering, and it doesn't linger. This is a balm that I would like to always have with me."

Nice balm but still prefer the Laurel Night Balm

"I already have the Laurel night balm and love it and thought this might be a nice addition for the cold winter weather, to help with wind burn, or to use on flights when traveling but there was something in it that irritated my face skin. Laurel skincare is quite concentrated so it’s probably a specific plant ingredient that isn’t in the other balms or unburden serum–no issues with those products. That said, i use it on my body without issue."

Nadine K. (3/5)

A Too Quality Product

"I love all of the Laurel products. This balm is so calming to the skin. I don’t have problem skin at all but I find the winters can be hard on it and it gets incredibly dry - to the point that some creams either irritate it or sit on top without absorbing. This balm along with the Night Balm are simple dreamy a. Worth the money!"

Laureen R. (5/5)

Amazing product

"I was originally given a sample size and loved it. I was having issues with extremely dry, cracked lips and this is the only thing that worked and actually helped not only make them feel better but healed my lips. I bought the jar of it and I am starting to use it on other areas of the face. Great product."
