Our skin is our largest organ — and the most honest reflection of how we treat our bodies. At Escents, we've been crafting natural skin repair solutions since 1992, using only 100% pure essential oils and the most potent plant-based ingredients nature has to offer. This is your complete guide to healing, restoring and protecting your skin — naturally.
⭐ Our Hero Product: Skin Repair Butter
If there is one product I would never be without, it's our Skin Repair Butter. This is one of Escents' most beloved formulas — crafted with a powerful trio of 100% pure essential oils: Geranium + Helichrysum + Tea Tree, suspended in a rich base of Jojoba oil, Avocado oil, Grapeseed oil, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Beeswax and Vitamin E.
It works on:
- Eczema and psoriasis
- Dry, cracked and damaged skin
- Burns and sunburns
- Acne and blemish-prone skin
- Post-surgery or scar healing
- Winter sports skin recovery
Apply directly to affected areas 2–3 times daily. For sensitive skin, patch test first. Shop Skin Repair Butter →
The Science of Skin Healing with Essential Oils
Essential oils work on skin at a cellular level — penetrating the dermis to reduce inflammation, stimulate tissue regeneration and protect against environmental damage. Here are the five most powerful ways they work:
1. Soothe Irritation & Inflammation
Essential oils with anti-inflammatory properties — like Blue Chamomile, Lavender and Helichrysum — calm redness, reduce swelling and replace the need for synthetic creams. They hydrate without the greasiness of conventional moisturizers.
2. Heal Blemishes & Acne
Tea Tree is nature's most powerful antibacterial essential oil. Our Blemish B'Gone Gel and Tea Tree Balancing Micro-Exfoliant use Tea Tree to clear pores, calm inflammation and vanquish blemishes without harsh chemicals.
3. Minimize Scars & Stretch Marks
Helichrysum — known as the "everlasting" oil — is one of the most powerful skin-regenerating botanicals in aromatherapy. Combined with Rosehip and Vitamin E, it helps minimize scarring and stretch marks over time. Our Scar Stopper is formulated specifically for this purpose.
4. Repair Eczema & Skin Conditions
Our Eczema Treatment and Skin Repair Butter are both formulated with Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter and pure essential oils to provide deep, lasting relief for eczema, psoriasis and chronically dry skin.
5. Regenerate with Comfrey
Used since ancient times to heal broken bones and bruises, Comfrey contains allantoin — a compound clinically proven to stimulate new cell growth, reduce inflammation and accelerate wound healing. Our Comfrey Gel is naturally made from comfrey leaves in a pure gel base — no synthetics, no harsh additives.
"In herbology, a general rule is: if anything is broken, use comfrey."
