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.

Repair and Recovery Facial Mist – Botanical Relief for Stressed, Sensitive Skin
This product has become a required staple in my skincare routine. I use it everyday on my very sensitive skin that is prone to redness and dryness. Not only is it extremely calming and soothing, but it also makes my skin look more plump and moisturized. I never want to be without this product; it has shot to the top of my "best skincare products of all time" list, next to the gentle cleansing gel. I highly recommend trying this if you have sensitive or aging skin that needs a boost of rejuvenation.

Always calms my skin
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!

I wanna bathe in this!
I love this seruuum! My mom as well does 😍 Though I’m having a hard time with the container since it sometimes spills when I use it. Though all in all, this serum calms my flare ups!!
Thank you so much for your review! :)

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!
My dermatologist recommended your product and I like it. Clean beauty.
Hi Madelon, (such a cool name) ✌︎㋡
We are thrilled to hear your dermatologist recommended our Lactic Acid Exfo Pads! That is really so cool and we appreciate running it past your Dr for their feedback. I wish it was doable to have a derm who was straight up honest to support companies like ours that offer products created with the customer in mind, not, the dollars.
Thanks for your kind words and support.
Wishing you the very best in your skincare journey.

Effective as a spot treatment. I may have overused it when I first got it (all over my face, twice a day), which might have been a bit irritating. But now I use it as a spot treatment if I feel any spots that might be headed toward a bit or blemish. And in the morning, those spots definitely feel dryer and less angry.
Hi Caroline ✋😃
Thank you for sharing your experience with our Oxygen Rich Super Charged 15% Gel. Honestly, I would have done the same thing by using it over my entire face and probably my neck, just for good measure. •ᴗ•
Receiving positive reviews always make us smile over here. Spot treatment is a perfect way to explain the use of this product.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

This feels really great on my hair. I love that it's silicone free and also fungal acne safe! (Very hard to find with conditioners!) Note that it is a leave-in. I use it after a hair wash before gels, and I also use it throughout the week on my ends for a moisture refresh. My one downside is that I don't like the smell when I put it on dry hair... I wish it had a dab of something herbal, even though I do like that it isn't scented with essential oils. But other than that I love it and plan to keep using it!
Hi Caroline

We strive to keep our customers happy and are delighted to hear you love the conditioner and appreciate its benefits.
Your note about the scent is valuable, and we'll consider it for future formulations. We can certainly add a drop or a few of what you would like.
Just let us know.

I love this serum so much. I have sensitive skin, and use this once a week so it lasts a while, and it makes such a big difference. Smooths lines, cleans pores, and evens skin tone.

Unclogs pores and smooths bumps
This product has unclogged my pores and smoothed the bumps on my cheeks. I have very sensitive skin and this did not irritate my face. It does not work overnight, you need to stick with it for a while but it worked for me!

My skin's texture and firmness have improved
I have noticed that my skin's texture and firmness have improved since I have been using this product. The fine lines seem a little smoother and it does not irritate my skin.

Superb for Soothing Sunburns
Love this. So simple but effective. I use it daily on my face as it soothes my sensitive skin. Whenever anyone in our family has had too much sun or a sunburn, we use this - it's incredibly soothing and hydrating. Even my picky kiddos happily put it on sun-parched skin.

Work horse in my skin care routine
Work horse in my skin care routine. Have used for years. I spray a few sprays after cleansing on my face, neck, and chest, then use the extra moisture it provides to spread my serum. Resets the ph of my skin, makes everything feel more comfortable, and cost effective. Love it.

Feels great on the skin
Feels great on the skin. I use it after cleansing but before serums, and it feels much more useful than a mineral water spray. I also like that it can be used throughout the day for a little boost. I had it in my purse last time I took a flight and I think it helped my skin stay happy during the journey.

I recommend it to everyone!
I love this schampoo!! I was a little skeptical if an all natural shampoo would work, especially since I have fine, straight hair that tends to get greasy after only a couple of days with regular high quality shampoos, but this really works. I can go for 3 full days without washing it and I immediately noticed how powder soft my hair felt after the first wash. I think it even washes out the hard water. I will definitely be buying this again!
