Luna & Lavender™ Postpartum Comfort Balm

Soothing • Anti-Inflammatory • Gentle Repair

The postpartum journey is beautiful, but it can also be physically demanding. Tenderness, swelling, and skin irritation are common as the body recovers from childbirth. Without intentional care, these discomforts can interfere with rest, emotional balance, and the ability to fully enjoy bonding moments with your baby.

Our Postpartum Comfort Balm was created as a trauma-informed solution for mothers in recovery. Handcrafted with herbal infusions, nutrient-dense butters, and soothing essential oils, it provides relief from irritation, supports skin regeneration, and helps restore balance during the delicate weeks after birth.

Formulated by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and Certified Trauma Professional (CTP), this balm is designed with both body and mind in mind — because healing is not just physical. It is also behavioral, emotional, and deeply personal.

Key Ingredient Benefits

• Calendula-Infused Sweet Almond Oil (Calendula officinalis)
  Known as one of the most gentle yet powerful skin healers, calendula reduces inflammation, calms irritation, and promotes tissue repair. Infused into sweet almond oil, it delivers vitamins and fatty acids that nourish fragile postpartum skin and support barrier function.

• Chamomile-Infused Oil & Chamomile Essential Oil (Anthemis nobilis)
  Chamomile provides strong anti-inflammatory support, reducing swelling and soothing sensitive tissue. Its natural azulene compounds calm redness and irritation, while its gentle aroma signals the nervous system to relax — a critical element in reducing postpartum stress.

• Plantain Leaf–Infused Oil (Plantago major)
  Traditionally used as a skin repair herb, plantain leaf is rich in allantoin and mucilage, which help calm irritation, repair micro-tears, and speed the healing process. Ideal for sensitive postpartum tissue.

• Rosehip Oil (Rosa canina)
  A powerhouse for regeneration, rosehip oil delivers vitamins A and C, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. It supports collagen production, enhances elasticity, and helps minimize the appearance of postpartum scarring or skin changes.

• Shea Butter (Butyrospermum parkii)
  Protective and deeply nourishing, shea butter locks in hydration while creating a barrier against dryness and irritation. Its natural vitamins support repair and comfort for tender skin.

• Mango Butter (Mangifera indica)
  Lightweight yet rich in antioxidants, mango butter restores softness, prevents moisture loss, and provides protective care to skin under recovery stress.

• Aloe Vera Butter (Aloe barbadensis)
  Cooling and calming, aloe soothes irritation while hydrating delicate skin, providing instant comfort to areas in need of relief.

• Lavender Essential Oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
  Lavender helps ease discomfort, supports skin healing, and calms both body and mind. Its aroma promotes relaxation, making it an essential part of postpartum care rituals.

• Beeswax (Cera alba)
  Provides structure to the balm while locking in moisture and forming a breathable, protective barrier — ensuring comfort lasts for hours.

Behavioral Wellness Tip

Self-care after childbirth is not indulgence — it is necessary. When applied daily, this balm becomes more than a skin treatment: it becomes a behavioral ritual that teaches your nervous system to associate touch with safety, calm, and renewal. With repetition, your body and mind begin to anticipate comfort rather than tension.

Suggested Uses

• Apply gently to irritated or sensitive areas during postpartum recovery.

• Use daily after bathing, during care routines, or as needed for relief.

• External use only.

Mantra: “I honor my body’s healing and welcome comfort with every touch.”
