Description LAUREL SKIN .68oz l 20ml Lymph Compound is a concentrated herbal skin supplement crafted to clear and contour the skin of the face and neck. Therapeutic, whole plant extracts of conifer trees and vibrant organic herbs activate the pathways of movement and detoxification within the inner waters of our cells and tissues. As interstitial fluids are liberated from the burden of stagnancy and metabolic waste, the skin becomes clear and vibrant and the natural contours of the face reveal themselves KEY BIOACTIVES: Rosemary – One of the most-researched herbal medicines in existence, it is no surprise that Rosemary is the foundation of this formula. This biodynamically farmed shrub improves cellular response to inflammation, increasing strength and resilience. Abundant in rosmarinic acid, it facilitates fluid thinning to release stagnation and blockages beneath the skin. Rich in minerals, antioxidants and ursolic acid that boost the skin’s production of natural ceramides and collagen type 1, firming the skin and connective tissue. This therapeutic evergreen has balancing effects on the pituitary gland and nervous system, easing muscle tension and releasing the grip of an overactive mind. Red Clover – This nourishing purple blossom is filled with isoflavones which are shown to firm and strengthen the skin. A cleansing lymph-mover, known as an ‘herbal alterative’, to assist our cells in the efficient management of metabolic waste through the appropriate pathways. An abundance of minerals like magnesium and vitamins like niacinamide, make Red Clover a soothing herb suitable for most skin types. Juniper – A precious shrub that is dear to my heart, bringing life to seemingly barren desert landscapes. This desert conifer is a common decongestant, with the ability to thin fluids, reduce inflammation and increase circulation. This stimulating lymphatic ally warms our tissues and promotes the movement of both blood and interstitial fluid. Juniper’s leaves and berries provide nutrients like vitamin E, carotenoids and flavonoids that strengthen and brighten the skin. White Pine – This long needle conifer is a profound healer that grows abundantly throughout the US. Healing pine resins have been used by herbalists for centuries to rapidly reduce inflammation, balance microbial loads, and stimulate cellular repair. Modern research has shown that shikimic acid, a natural AHA found in White Pine, is an effective skin decongestant and lymph-thinning mover. Pine terpenes have a relaxing effect on the body and speak directly to our lymphocytes and immune system, encouraging self-regulation in the same way forest bathing eases our anxieties. Fennel – This resilient weed is loaded with collagen-protective antioxidants like ferulic acid and caffeic acid. Its anti-inflammatory effects come from its abundance of quercetin and apigenin. Fennel supports the way tissues and cells respond to toxins and waste build-up, supporting the body through blockages and stagnation by preventing lipid oxidation and protecting cellular DNA from damage. Bladderwrack – Intensely hydrating and rich in vitamin B and polysaccharides, this beautiful seaweed excels at rehydrating and soothing the skin. High in fucoidan, a phytonutrient shown to increase collagen synthesis, to firm, strengthen and rebuild the skin. Adding seaweed and sea salt into this formula was an intentional choice to bring in the energy of water, promoting ease of movement through fascia and interstitial fluid that lies just beneath the skin.
