Restore balance to irritated, inflamed, or overworked skin with our Repair and Recovery Facial Mist Botanical Relief for Stressed, Sensitive Skin is a calming facial mist made from potent herbal infusions and soothing botanicals. Designed specifically for sensitive skin and those prone to redness, itchiness, or inflammation, this gentle formula promotes deep hydration, helps repair the skin barrier, and provides relief from discomfort.
At the heart of this soothing mist is Lemon Balm Hydrosol, an antioxidant-rich hydrosol known for its cooling, calming, and relaxing effects on the skin. A restorative blend of herbal teas, including Calendula, Marshmallow Root, Arnica Blossom, Meadowsweet Blossom, Plantain Leaf, and Chickweed, delivers anti-inflammatory, healing, and anti-itch benefits while forming a lightweight, breathable film to protect the skin barrier. Infused with Marrubium Extract, a powerful botanical active that helps reduce redness and irritation, and enriched with Larch Tree Extract for antioxidant and water-binding support, this elixir replenishes and soothes without clogging pores. Gum Arabic provides a light, natural thickening effect, while Leucidal SF, a probiotic-based preservative, keeps this formula safe and friendly to the microbiome. Whether you're treating sun-exposed skin, post-treatment irritation, or general sensitivity flare-ups, this botanical recovery serum is your daily go-to for comfort, hydration, and healing.
Method of Application Use this facial mist as needed to soothe and heal the affected area. Use as needed for maintenance.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.
I love this serum. It has helped my skin whenever it got irritated. I tried “Oh No! What did I do to my skin?” serum and I want to say I liked the consistency of that one more, but for those looking for a lighter serum, “Repair and Recovery” would be perfect.
We are so happy this serum is being loved by you! Thank you!

miracle product for irritated skin
This serum has become my favorite product in a long time! My skin is extremely sensitive and prone to breakouts which means Im always looking for products that will reduce redness and inflammation. Well this serum is incredible for just that! I will be ordering the largest size asap.
One of our favorite products to recommend for our sensitive skin customers!

Highly recommend!
Very soothing and great for my sensitive, and at times dehydrated, rosacea skin. I use it everyday mixed with Ramosu snail filtrate (after cleanser and P50W). Mix them in my palm and apply to face/neck/chest then spray with a hydrosol and let absorb for 5 minutes. Have fallen asleep a few times at this point in my skincare routine - and not applied serums and moisturizer like usual - and have been surprised at how well my skin was in the morning. My only complaints are the price and the container. It is very expensive and I count the drops carefully to make sure i don't use more than I need . The container is prone to leaking (which makes it more expensive if you lose product) and you have to concentrate when pressure is needed to release drops, because just a tad too much results in a stream.
We appreciate this review :)
Also wanted to mention we do have our own snail filtrate product (Es-Care-Go Serum if you haven't tried, its worth a sample!
Lastly wanted to say if you find yourself using larger amounts of this we do offer discounts on bigger sizes :) Just email us!
Thank you for taking the time to review :)

Soothing Serum
This stuff has made a huge difference in the redness and irritation on my face. I did have a small adjustment period with this but I believe that may be because I started it at the same time as other products while I was trying to move away from soap based cleansers. Once my face adjusted to everything, I realized how much this serum was helping my face. I had to stop everything temporarily while dealing with an unrelated eye issue and man did I miss it. My face feels so good after using this and it really does reduce redness due to sensitive skin from health issues. I usually apply this after spraying with the Calm and Hydrate mist.
So glad you are loving this! One of our favorites to recommend for sensitive skin.
This is another favorite! Didn't think product was doing much until my husband mentioned that my face looked smoother and more even. He also has started using it now and has gotten many compliments. Doesn't burn or sting like ascorbic acid. I use 3-4 times a week at night only and love that it contains squalane because it gives me a little extra moisture.

We pride ourselves on using gentle and effective ingredients, such as squalane, to provide skin conditioning and improve skin texture.

These pads are one of my favorites! I have used them for a few years. They don't flare up my rosacea (do a patch test first) or cause excessive dryness. I only use 1-2 times a week so the product lasts for many months. I like that it only has one ingredient and no preservatives. Great price and shipping is fast.
Hi Teresa

Upon doing the cottonball test this item did not clean my face properly for me . I only use jojoba oil and concealer in a few places. I do believe it has quality ingredients, I have mixed it w the Skin Friendly Cucumber cleanser as to make that cleanser more gentle for MY high maintenance skin.
Hi Julie
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our Soothing Cleansing Gel. We apologize that the product did not meet your expectations and we understand that finding the right cleanser for your skin can be a challenge.
We appreciate your feedback and would like to suggest trying our Skin Friendly Cucumber cleanser, which you have already mixed with our Soothing Cleansing Gel. It may be a better fit for your high maintenance skin. We also recommend using a gentle exfoliator occasionally to
help ensure a deep clean.
We strive to provide quality products and we hope to have the opportunity to better serve you in the future.
Again, thank you for your honesty as well,

Even before I moved to natural products, I had difficulty with deodorants. I sweat a good bit. I would rotate between a couple of deodorants as that seemed to help ensure they kept working. I do like the natural deodorant sticks with baking soda. I also like the way it feels as a barrier on my skin. However, before or by the end of the work day, they stopped doing their job. So, I decided to use the unscented version of this GOW along with the stick deodorant. Put this on first, let it dry and then apply the stick. This has made such a difference!!!! It really keeps odors in check! I’m sensitive to scents, but citrus is usually not a problem, so I’ll try that next time.n
Hi Valerie
It's wonderful to hear that our Deodorant Spray has been working well for you! It's great to know that you've found a solution to help with your sweating and that our product has made a difference for you. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and for your support.
We hope you continue to enjoy our product!

There's something about coconut vinegar that just hits right...
I LOVE to close my eyes and spray all of the Coco tonics on my face after washing it. It smells amazing and makes it so less is more as you move forward with serums and creams. It's like self-care in a spritzer.

The scent to rival all scent-sations!
It is the most DIVINE of all the serums I've tried at GoW, not only due to it's efficacy, but the scent takes you straight into a rose garden on a mild spring day. Lovely feeling on my skin and to my senses.
