Handcrafted Blueberry Spot Treatment

Formulated as a spot treatment, this handcrafted formula combines aloe vera leaf juice, glycerin, blueberry fruit extract, tea tree extract, and peppermint leaf extract. Spots are small blemishes on the skin, such as pimples, and this treatment is applied directly to each one.

Tea tree is commonly used to clear blemishes and suits spot treatments. Peppermint is regularly used for a cooling sensation. Aloe vera is frequently used to support hydration. Glycerin also acts to support hydration. Xanthan gum also helps control thickness and stabilize the formula.

Skin care engages touch at each step of a routine, and the step depends on the product. Cleansing products lift surface oils, debris, and bacteria from the skin (Aiello & Larson, 2002). Moisturizing products such as creams, lotions, and balms add emollients that soften the skin surface and help hold in hydration. Serums, masks, and treatments are applied to specific areas of the face, and the pressure of application adds to the sensation. Applying any of these products activates C‑tactile afferents, the nerve fibers that process pleasant touch (Löken et al., 2009; McGlone et al., 2014). Slow, massage‑like pressure is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010; Field, 2015), and warmth and absorption add to the sensation as the product meets the skin.

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.
