Tepezcohuite is the ground bark of a fern-like tree native to tropical regions of Brazil and Southern Mexico. The ancient Mayans used this miraculous ground botanical to treat burns because it is antimicrobial and antiseptic and helps to heal wounds and regenerate skin. 

Tepezcohuite Healing Mask

Known for centuries as "the skin tree," tepezcohuite is known to be beneficial for acne, eczema, and skin inflammation. It is combined with bentonite clay to absorb impurities and excess oil, and organic colloidal oatmeal to further ease irritation and inflammation.

Tepezcohuite Healing Mask
Each bottle is hand blown individually at a revolutionary glassblowing studio in Oaxaca, Mexico. The studio has spent years perfecting not only their craft of glassblowing, but the sustainable and ecological way that they run their facility. They produce their own fuel and power their furnaces, glory holes, and annealing ovens using processed, used vegetable oil from local restaurants, methane gas produced on-site from a combination of cow and pig manure, and blood from a local butcher. Other equipment is solar powered and the glass itself is made from recycled bottles brought to the studio by waste pickers, restaurants, and locals because there are no municipal recycling programs in the area. During a typical week, 550 pounds of discarded glass is recycled and used to create beautiful, handmade vessels.
