Acne and dermatitis are no joke. For youth and adults alike, these skin eruptions can effect self worth, self confidence and mental health. Addressing root cause requires more than a topical product, but while you're waiting for your liver, nervous system and gut health to improve, topical serums and ointments can do wonders.
This is a whole plant infused oil made with pine resin gathered lovingly from our local white pines, resin rich poplar buds from fallen branches after a storm and of course sun filled calendula from our gardens.
