Daily Calm: Face Balm

Daily Calm is designed to protect and soothe sensitive, reactive, or stressed skin, making it ideal for daily maintenance and support. Built on a base of tallow, jojoba, and squalene, this balm delivers skin-identical lipids that restore barrier integrity and improve hydration. Combined with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actives like totarol, rosehip CO₂, calendula extract, and black cumin CO₂, it helps reduce redness, calm irritation, support cellular repair, and improve overall skin resilience. Gentle essential oils, including lavender, blue tansy, ho wood, and Roman chamomile, provide a soothing aromatic experience while supporting skin renewal.

Ingredient Benefits

Grass-Fed Tallow: Prized for centuries across cultures - from ancient Egyptians and Romans to Indigenous peoples = tallow mirrors human sebum more closely than any plant oil. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), it promotes regeneration, elasticity, even tone, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial action, deep hydration, and barrier repair - ideal for aging, sensitive, or compromised skin.

Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis): Native American tribes used it for centuries to heal wounds and sun damage. Mimics sebum to balance oil production, deliver vitamins and fatty acids, support collagen, soothe inflammation (eczema/rosacea), and leave a velvety, non-comedogenic finish.

Castor Oil (Ricinus communis): Cleopatra's beauty secret. Ricinoleic acid soothes inflammation, draws moisture, heals blemishes/scars, improves texture/glow, and boosts collagen/elastin over time.

Tamanu Oil (Calophyllum inophyllum): Polynesian "Green Gold" for wound healing and scars. Contains unique anti-inflammatory calophyllolide, promotes tissue regeneration, offers antibacterial/antifungal action for acne, and deeply repairs dry/damaged/mature skin.

Olive Squalane (Olea europaea): Mediterranean tradition for sun/wind protection. Mimics sebum for compatibility, deeply moisturizes without clogging, improves softness/elasticity/barrier, enhances active delivery.

Totarol (Podocarpus totara): New Zealand Tōtara tree extract. Powerful antioxidant/antimicrobial (targets acne bacteria), reduces inflammation/oxidative damage, supports clearer/calmer/resilient skin.

Calendula CO₂ Extract: A gentle, soothing botanical extract traditionally used for sensitive or reactive skin. Supports healing, reduces inflammation, and promotes overall skin comfort and barrier restoration.

Rosehip CO₂ Extract (Rosa Canina): Indigenous scar-care staple. Vitamin A precursors renew skin, improve tone/texture/scars/pigmentation, enhance elasticity/radiance.

Black Cumin Seed CO₂ Extract: Rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, this extract helps calm redness, regulate microbial balance, and support healthy, resilient skin.

Vitamin E (Mixed Tocopherols): Antioxidant protector from free radicals/UV. Prevents aging, fades scars/pigmentation, deeply moisturizes, synergizes with other ingredients.

Rosemary Antioxidant Extract (Rosmarinus Officinalis): Traditional apothecary preservative. Shields from free radicals, supports vitality, maintains freshness, gentle antimicrobial.
