Lavender opens to the door to the world of cool, tranquil peace for your skin.
Cooling, calming, synergizing and protecting, Lavender is a remarkable ally for the skin and psyche. It bestows serenity to body and mind alike. Lavender has a rich history of reverence throughout the ages. Its native region sprawls all throughout the Old World, but is especially beloved and celebrated along the Mediterranean, the current hub of the modern Lavender industry.
The fragrance of true lavender is at once tender and tenacious. It is deliciously fresh, soft, smooth, herbaceous and honey-sweet. On the skin it is cleansing, exceptionally beautifying and amazingly regenerative. It has been used on everything from burns, scrapes, cuts and wounds, to plague-prevention, tension, frayed nerves and sleeplessness.
Lavender is incredibly versatile in a myriad of applications, and there are few situations when it’s not appropriate — that’s why it is a staple ingredient in many of our skin care formulations.
The Benefits of Lavender
Most major skin imbalances fall into the category of oil imbalance (oily, dry, combination) or an excess of heat (troubled, irritated, sensitive, reactive). Lavender is a magical ingredient when it comes to addressing these vast and dominant issues. The cooling qualities of lavender work to pacify heat, and soothe chappy, red or irritated skin. When used regularly, Lavender will help minimize the appearance of hyperpigmentation and scarring.

Lavender is the Centerpiece of
our Calming Ritual
Our Calming Ritual (previously known as our Blue Line) is formulated to calm and soothe sensitive, irritated and reactive skin. We’ve drawn upon a trifecta of cooling, calming and pacifying herbs - lavender, immortelle, and german chamomile.
Blue Lavender Cleansing Milk
Our Blue Lavender Cleansing Milk is a remarkable example of several ingredients uniting to create a luscious, lightly lathering cleanser that revitalizes your skin. Nourishing shea butter and vitalizing plant hydrosols weave into fresh steam-distilled essential oils of lavender and blue chamomile to create a skin-balancing cleansing formula that draws impurities out of pores and leaves skin exquisitely clean. Daily use of this cleanser softens and loosens blackheads, restores skin’s vitality and balances hydration.
Organic Lavender Facial Tonic HydroSoul
Adding a HydroSoul to your daily ritual is the missing link to properly hydrating your skin. You’ll notice a difference in the tone, glow, suppleness and hydration levels of your skin after you start to use them more. Unless you have an allergy or a scent-aversion, there is no wrong choice when selecting a HydroSoul — if you are seeking a heat-pacifying, restorative and hydrating addition to your ritual, our first choice is Lavender. Mist throughout the day to refresh and lighten your spirit, or pair with one of our Oil Serums as part of your daily Oil & Water Ritual.
Organic Rosehip Treatment Facial Serum - Blue
Our certified organic rosehip seed oil comes from the Chilean Andes and has been used for centuries to treat sun-damaged, scarred or burned skin. Rosehip seed oil is rich in the naturally occurring pro-vitamin A and has considerable amounts of essential fatty acids which significantly regenerate and strengthen cell membranes to aid in the prevention of early signs of aging. Our Rosehip Blue Serum contains lavender, blue chamomile, immortelle and carrot seed oils which support and enhance its regenerative effects, minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. It is especially effective when combined with a HydroSoul for your daily Oil & Water Ritual.
Blue Chamomile Day Moisturizer
Balancing and protective, this daily moisturizing skin treatment calms and soothes sensitive and irritated skin. It features the gentle essential oils of blue chamomile, carrot seed, organic lavender and the antioxidant plant allies of artisan-distilled yarrow flower and leaf, elderberry flower extract, green tea and calendula. Organic plant and seed oils of argan, sunflower and jojoba combine to deeply moisturize, soften, create suppleness and protect skin without feeling heavy, sticky or waxy. For dry or dehydrated skin, apply day moisturizer after cleansing face and applying Oil & Water to lock-in moisture while still allowing skin to breathe.
