Clarifies + Gently Exfoliates

Balances Excess Oil

Sage, Witch Hazel, Rosemary, and other astringent botanicals help tone and support more balanced-looking skin.

Calms Inflammation

Chamomile, Aloe, Willow Bark, Lemon Balm, and Horsetail provide soothing botanical compounds that help calm visible redness and irritation.

Provides Antioxidant Support

Willow Bark, Sage, Rosemary, Lemon Balm, and other botanical extracts provide antioxidant plant compounds that help protect against oxidative stress.

Refreshes + Conditions

The alcohol-free botanical base provides toning and conditioning benefits without relying on drying alcohol.

White Willow Bark

Clarify • Exfoliate • Calm

White Willow Bark (Salix alba) naturally contains salicin along with polyphenols, flavonoids, and other beneficial plant compounds.

It provides gentle exfoliating, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory support that can be particularly useful for oily, congested, and acne-prone skin.

Willow Bark is often associated with Salicylic Acid, but the two aren’t chemically interchangeable. Willow Bark provides salicin and a broader spectrum of botanical compounds rather than functioning as a direct equivalent to a formulated BHA treatment.

Sage

Balance • Clarify • Antioxidant

Salvia officinalis has a long history of traditional herbal use and contains aromatic compounds and polyphenols with antioxidant and astringent properties.

Topically, Sage helps tone and condition oily or combination skin while supporting a fresh, balanced complexion.

Coltsfoot

Soothe • Tone • Condition

Tussilago farfara is traditionally valued in herbal preparations for its soothing and conditioning properties.

Within this botanical blend, Coltsfoot complements the formula’s astringent herbs while helping support skin comfort.

Horsetail

Tone • Antioxidant • Condition

Equisetum arvense is an ancient botanical naturally containing flavonoids, phenolic compounds, and minerals, including silica.

Traditionally valued for its astringent and tissue-supportive properties, Horsetail provides antioxidant and conditioning support within this clarifying formula.

Lemon Balm

Calm • Antioxidant • Refresh

Melissa officinalis contains antioxidant-rich polyphenols, including rosmarinic acid, and has a long history of traditional herbal use for soothing and calming applications.

It complements the more astringent botanicals while contributing antioxidant and skin-conditioning benefits.

Chamomile + Aloe

Soothe • Hydrate • Comfort

Chamomile provides calming and anti-inflammatory botanical support, while Aloe supplies hydrating polysaccharides and other compounds that help soothe and condition the skin.

Together they provide balance within this clarifying herbal blend.

Witch Hazel

Tone • Clarify • Balance

Hamamelis virginiana is traditionally valued for its astringent properties. It helps tone the skin, manage excess surface oil, and support a refreshed complexion.

Use morning and evening after thoroughly cleansing the skin.

Close eyes and spritz Herbal Blend Astringent evenly over the face, neck, and décolleté. Avoid direct contact with the eye area.

Follow with treatment serums, moisturizer, and the remaining steps of your skincare ritual.

During the day, complete your morning skincare ritual with Mineral Tinted SPF 30.

May also be misted onto the skin whenever a refreshing botanical boost is desired.

Herbal Blend Astringent is your clarifying toner when skin is feeling oily, congested, or blemish-prone. For additional hydration, follow while the skin is still slightly damp with a hydrating serum such as 4D+ Hyaluronic Serum.

How is this different from Ginseng Mineral Toner?

Herbal Blend Astringent is the more clarifying and oil-balancing option, with Willow Bark, Sage, Witch Hazel, and a broad blend of botanical extracts.

Ginseng Mineral Toner focuses more heavily on hydration, conditioning, and revitalization with Sodium PCA, Glycosaminoglycans, Ginseng, Bee Pollen, and proteins.

Is Willow Bark the same as Salicylic Acid?

No. Willow Bark contains salicin along with numerous other plant compounds. It provides gentle botanical exfoliating and anti-inflammatory support but isn’t chemically equivalent to a formulated Salicylic Acid treatment.

What does “astringent” mean in botanical skincare?

Astringent is a traditional herbal action describing the toning and tightening effect certain plants have on tissue. Many astringent herbs contain tannins and other plant compounds that interact with proteins at the tissue surface.

In skincare, astringent botanicals can help tone the skin, manage excess oil, and support a balanced complexion. Herbal Blend Astringent combines botanicals traditionally valued for these actions, including Witch Hazel, Sage, Willow Bark, and Horsetail, with soothing and conditioning herbs to create a balanced botanical formula.
