Tammy works with ancient and sacred medicinal herbs because they are both safe and effective. Synthetic ingredients can over-strip the skin, leaving it open to further infection and triggering a cyclical over-production of oils. Using synthetic treatments can also cause damage to health longer term.
Tammy’s powerfully effective spot treatment Clarifying Dermagel treats blemishes and breakouts naturally with potent re-balancing and detoxifying herbal remedies, including Thyme and Tea Tree, which cleanse and detoxify, and Myrrh, which helps rebalance sebum production, all blended into an Aloe base that protects skin from over-drying, which could leave it vulnerable to further breakouts.
Blemishes require tenderness, and Tammy’s holistic approach incorporates healthy shifts in daily lifestyle patterns. These simple changes can not only help clear acne, but create balance for the whole being.
Besides relying on a natural, holistic skin care protocol designed to help balance overactive and oily skin, some simple lifestyle shifts might include drinking plenty of water to help flush out the internal system and detoxify the skin. Food journaling can help you become mindful of how the sugar and processed food you eat might influence your equilibrium. Eating foods in their natural, raw state—especially those like carrots and papaya that contain Zinc and Vitamin A—can help. Before a shower, dry brushing can help activate the lymphatic system, encouraging detoxification, as can movement and gentle exercise. Taking a break from makeup can give the skin a chance to breathe and recover. At the same time, managing stress with meditation practices can do wonders for the skin and for the whole being. Emotional upset can be a primary factor in triggering breakouts, as stress hormones like cortisol increase sebum production. Great sleep is also key to the skin’s recovery process.

Tammy recommends the following protocol to help clear and balance the complexion, especially for those with oily or blemish prone skin. Illuminating the complexion and supporting harmony creates a lifelong foundation in radiance.
First, cleanse with Purifying Cleansing Gel, blended with Spearmint to activate circulation, which helps detoxify the skin, and Aloe, to help keep skin cleansed and hydrated. Next, purify the skin with Essential-C Tonic, whisked across the skin on a cotton pad. This floral tonic is crafted with citrus essences to support re-balanced sebum production.
Follow by treating any active blemishes with Clarifying Dermagel, an innovative spot treatment containing potent natural remedies, including Thyme, Tea Tree and Myrrh.
Cleanse more deeply with micro-exfoliating Epi-Peel up to three times a week, purifying the complexion thoroughly, absorbing excess oils with the mask-and-peel’s clay base, while herbal remedies such as Rosemary and Spearmint, activate the natural detoxification pathways.
It’s also important to moisturize the skin with Luminous Morning Crème, a light, nurturing moisturizer. Remember: Skin that’s oily at the surface can indeed experience underlying dehydration. The presence of excess oil isn’t a sign of hydration. Over-cleansing and under-moisturizing oily skin can trigger a response that compensates for a lack of protective moisture at the skin’s surface by overproducing sebum, which results in blemishes. Luminous Morning Crème is the best moisturizer for oily but dehydrated skin, blended with citrus essences, including Neroli and Sweet Orange, that help balance sebum production while uplifting the mood.
With a gentle circular motion, apply a small amount of cleanser to face and neck, morning and evening, whisking away impurities. Remove with a warm moist cloth. Repeat if removing makeup, and follow with your favorite floral water.
Liberally apply the floral water or tonic best suited to your skin type to a cotton pad and sweep over face and neck, morning and evening, or as needed to restore, re-hydrate and soothe the skin. Each of our tonics maintain skin’s precious ph balance.
With the fingertips, gently press ultra-concentrated treatment serums into the skin, providing essential nutrients and added protection to the skin. Use morning and evening or as needed, refreshing the skin with a luminous sheen.
Apply a desired amount to face and neck, allowing cream to absorb. May be used morning and evening, or as often as needed to nourish and protect skin, sealing in hydration with a protective veil. If you wear makeup or sunscreen, layer these over your moisturizer.
Exfoliants and treatment masks can be used up to 3 times weekly, in combination, or alone, to support deep cleansing and restoration, while revealing a fresh, polished complexion.
