Burdock root (Arctium lappa) - a classic alterative herb with a strong affinity for the skin, blood, and liver. It supports the body’s natural detoxification processes by helping clear metabolic waste through the liver, lymphatic system, and kidneys. This reduces the burden on the skin as an organ of elimination. Rich in minerals and prebiotic compounds, burdock also nourishes the body while supporting digestion and microbiome balance. Its ability to regulate sebaceous gland activity makes it helpful for both dry and oily skin conditions, including eczema and acne.
Dandelion root (Taraxacum officinale) - a deeply supportive liver tonic that stimulates bile production and enhances digestion, particularly the breakdown of fats and oils. Its bitter properties activate digestive secretions, helping improve nutrient absorption while supporting detoxification. Rich in antioxidants, it helps protect the skin from oxidative stress and is traditionally used to address chronic skin conditions like acne and eczema by supporting internal elimination pathways.
Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum) - an adaptogenic herb that helps the body respond to stress while reducing inflammation (two key factors in skin health) Its antioxidant properties with compounds like eugenol (anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial) and rosmarinic acid (a natural polyphenol that has anti-inflammatory &antioxidant benefits) help neutralize free radicals, protecting the skin from damage and supporting a more even tone. Tulsi also supports circulation and helps calm stress-related skin flare-ups, making it especially valuable when emotional or physical stress is contributing to breakouts or dullness.
Red clover (Trifolium pratense) - a nutritive and alterative herb that supports both detoxification and skin nourishment. Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, it helps support collagen production, improve skin texture, and promote a more even complexion. As a lymphatic supporting herb, it encourages the movement of fluids and helps reduce stagnation, which is often at the root of chronic skin issues. It also supports estrogen metabolism, making it beneficial for hormonally-driven skin concerns.
Orange peel (Citrus x sinensis) - a bitter, aromatic herb that supports digestion, circulation, and the movement of stagnant energy. Its high vitamin C content helps support collagen production and brighten the skin, while its ability to stimulate digestive secretions enhances nutrient absorption. In traditional systems, it is used to clear “dampness” and stagnation, helping the body move excess fluids and toxins that can contribute to skin congestion and inflammation.
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) - a soothing, demulcent herb that helps reduce inflammation and support the body during times of stress. It supports adrenal function and helps regulate cortisol, which plays a significant role in both hormonal balance and skin health. Licorice also contains compounds known for their skin-brightening effects, helping reduce hyperpigmentation and promote a more even complexion. As a harmonizer, it balances the formula while adding gentle sweetness and moisture.
