A hydrating, brightening, moisturizing mask that visibly plumps, firms, and renews.
Austin’s Petal Pecan Mask is a representation of plentiful Texas farmlands, an opulent bounty of Peaches and Pecans to plump and firm the skin. Beloved native plant medicine like Yaupon and Pink Primrose Flower are layered in with depth and subtlety. Soothing and regeneratively farmed flowers like Calendula and Chamomile soften and strengthen.
Each regionally sourced Texas botanical is gently folded into a whipped mixture of raw Honey and raw Pecans, making this mask both hydrating and moisturizing with its balanced lipids and humectants. Active enzymes from raw Peaches and warming herbs like Tulsi, Turmeric, and Ginger bring an immediate brightening glow. Lemon Balm, Milky Oats and Chickweed offer densely packed nutrients and antioxidants as a feast for the skin. A lingering hint of Vanilla and Vetiver ground the mind and spirit.
The Petal Pecan Mask is the Mindful Ritual Step 1 in this collection.
Limited Quantities Available
Honey – Raw Honey is incredibly hydrating, and visibly plumps and firms the skin. It has gentle enzymatic action that works to turn over cells in a non-forceful way. Raw Honey is also an excellent choice for microbiome imbalances by inhibiting the overgrowth of harmful bacteria colonies, while encouraging beneficial flora diversity.
Pecans – Supporting small family farmers, Austin-sourced raw Pecans nourish, moisturize, and soften skin with their healthy lipids and high vitamin E content.
Peaches – The inclusion of aromatic ripe peaches take this Mask’s enzymatic cleansing and brightening up a notch. Peaches are cooling, strengthening, and filled with vitamin C, flavonoids, and helpful fruit acids.
Calendula – Our vibrant Calendula is farmed and harvested mindfully for Laurel Skin by regional medicinal herb farms. Calendula is deeply restorative and healing on a cellular level. It is excellent for scarring and all forms of skin damage.
Pink Primrose – These delicate pink petals couldn’t be left out of this Mask, and be seen in the Spring throughout central Texas. These beauties help to soothe and calm the skin.

*regionally and ethically wildcrafted ingredient
*Wildcrafting is not a term that you see used often at Laurel Skin. In the commercial beauty and health industries wildcrafting or wild-harvesting can put a strain on the environment, animal habitats, and Indigenous communities. Laurel Skin does not condone wildcrafting plants on Indigenous lands unless it only and directly financially supports the Indigenous folks doing the harvesting. Laurel Skin does not condone any scale of wildcrafting that may bring harm to the micro-ecosystems of a particular area. This is especially seen in the essential oil and supplement industries, and we genuinely wish for that type of wildcrafting to come to an end. The wildcrafting done for the Miraval Collection is ethically and mindfully done in small and limited amounts by herbalists local to their regions. None of these plants were harvested on Indigenous lands, and all were harvested on privately owned lands where each plant is abundant not at all at-risk. This responsibility is something Laurel personally takes very seriously, and we do not encourage wildcrafting for those who do not have this level of awareness around this global sourcing concern.
Ritual Step 1 – Scoop out 1 teaspoon of Mask and place in fingers. Allow the warmth of your fingers to soften the Honey. When the Mask begins to soften and melt into your fingers, gently press the Mask onto your dry face. This pressing and releasing is actually called ‘Honey Tapping’, which can also help stimulate your lymphatic system, circulation, and gently exfoliate. As the Mask gets softer, you can gently spread it onto your dry skin. Adding a bit of water to your fingers will allow for a smooth facial massage. We recommend massaging for several minutes if you have time, and keep adding water as needed. The water helps to activate the Honey’s enzymes as well as the other herbs in the Mask – this unlocks the Mask’s full potential. Once the water has been added to your skin and the Mask goes from dry to wet, leave the Mask on for 10-30 minutes and gently remove with warm cloth. Follow with the rest of this collection.
Use within 6 months of opening and by the recommended use-by date, which is found on the bottom of the bottle. Store this product in a cool, dry and dark place.
Austin Sourcing Story
When I first started looking for an organic herb farm regional to Austin, TX, I got discouraged because I couldn’t find one. After many months, I finally found Nicole – a doctor, herbalist, and acupuncturist. She was just beginning planting for her own upcoming organic herb farm, and she didn’t even have a website or seeds in the ground yet. I reached out to Nicole and asked her to meet with me on my next trip to Texas. Nicole was the perfect match for this project in every way, and was eager to hit the ground running to grow for us. She was highly impactful in getting this formula off the ground.
Our trip to Austin also included an in-depth overview of Miraval’s own Cypress Creek Farm, to see what plants thrived there naturally. Milky Oats, Monarda, and Chickweed all grew abundantly on the farm. Eric and I also hit up every farmers’ market that we could on that first trip! We found many farms offered Yaupon, a native antioxidant-rich tea leaf. Pecans and Peaches were also abundant in the Austin region, and they ended up stealing the show for this Mask. Meeting with different farmers and learning what plants grew effortlessly there created this product from start to finish. The ingredients spoke loudly, and I simply got out of the way to let this Mask create itself.
