Calm & Clear Ritual

The spirit of lavender is gentle and loving. She is peaceful and purifying. She is calming and kind. Her healing properties are grounded in sweetness and although she is soft, she is resilient.

Lavender's antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties bring balance and clarity to the skins complexion while calming redness and healing blemishes. It's aromatherapeutic properties bring a calm and present peace of mind.

Working intimately with this herb has brought me into myself, nurturing self-compassion and bridging an intimate connection between my skin and the soil from which it grew.

With love and respect, I’ve alchemized her medicine into an offering to share. May you take time daily to celebrate your natural beauty, inside and out, through an intentional skin care ritual.

The Ritual

1. Cleanse Your Face

2. Tone with a Hydrosol Mist

Cleanse your face with your choice of cleanser. Rinse your face with cold water and pat dry with a clean cloth.

2. Tone with a Hydrosol Mist

Spritz the Toning Mist Hydrosol onto your face as a toner. This mist not only hydrates and soothes but tightens your pores and helps balance your skin’s pH after cleansing, reducing redness and irritation.

3. Moisturize with an Herbal Face Oil

While your skin is still damp from the hydrosol, apply about 5 drops of the Lavender-infused Sunflower Oil to your palm and spritz hydrosol 1-2 times over the oil. Emulsify the oil and hydrosol in your palms and massage it gently into your skin. Leaving your face smooth and hydrated without a greasy feel.

3. Self Massage

3. Moisturize with an Herbal Face Oil

Using a Gua Sha tool or the knuckles of your index and middle figures, sweep across your face using upward and outward motions, focusing on areas of tension, such as the jawline, cheeks, and forehead. This reduces puffiness in the face and neck by draining your lymph nodes. After massaging you can add any spot treatments or other serums. If it is morning, don't forget your sunscreen!
