Meet Myrtle

Myrtle is an evergreen shrub native to the Mediterranean, long cherished in traditional herbal practices for its cleansing, uplifting, and restorative qualities. Its leaves and berries are distilled into a fragrant essential oil rich in antioxidants and soothing compounds. Historically tied to rituals of purification and renewal, Myrtle has found a modern home in wellness formulas designed to bring calm, clarity, and comfort to the body.

 

For Skin and Within

Topically, Myrtle Essential Oil offers gentle astringent and antimicrobial benefits, helping calm irritation and support the skin’s natural healing process. Its soothing effects make it especially helpful for sensitive areas that deal with friction or inflammation — including the delicate skin involved in hemorrhoid flare-ups. Myrtle’s toning properties can assist in reducing tenderness while promoting a cleaner, more refreshed feel.

Internally, Myrtle isn’t consumed, but aromatherapists often use it to support relaxation and deeper breathing. That calming element pairs beautifully with its topical benefits, creating an overall sense of ease — something anyone navigating discomfort absolutely deserves.

A Sensory Experience

Myrtle’s scent is fresh, herbal, and slightly sweet — like a crisp breeze through a Mediterranean garden. In a soak, it releases a balancing aroma that feels both clarifying and comforting. On the skin, it offers a subtle cooling sensation that adds a touch of relief without overpowering the senses.

How We Use It

We incorporate Myrtle Essential Oil into our Herbal Booty Salts to gently refresh the skin, support calmness, and create a soothing aromatherapeutic moment during every soak.
