Mineral-rich sleep balm with magnesium & aromatics for those who toss and turn or wake up in the middle of the night, unable to go back to sleep  / 1 oz 

de Mamiel Anchor, part of the Sleep Series collection, is one of those tools that may seem unassuming at first, but soon reveals itself to be a genuine little gem.

The quality of our sleep affects every aspect of our lives — including the condition of our skin. In her clinic, Annee de Mamiel saw this firsthand and developed her Sleep Series to address the foundational need for good sleep. Far more than a set of typical “sleepytime” lavender essential-oil blends, each formula is designed to work with the body, addressing the root cause of sleep disturbances.

Anchor is for those who wake up in the middle of the night and are unable to go back to sleep, those who toss and turn, or those who wake up too early and feel unrested. This deeply grounding balm, recently upgraded for even greater efficacy, features a number of  proven remedies chosen for the hours when the world goes quiet, but the body does not:

Deeply restorative magnesium chloride works alongside a nourishing infusion of nettle and oat straw to ease physical tension and support nervous system recovery, while pumpkin seed, oat kernel, and rice bran oils replenish essential lipids and strengthen the skin barrier throughout the night.

And grounding aromatics, including vetiver, sandalwood, frankincense, and myrrh, work through the limbic system to slow the breath, settle nervous system activity, and create a profound sense of stability and safety. 

As sleep deepens, the body can move more easily through the restorative stages of sleep associated with cellular repair, skin regeneration, and glymphatic activity—the brain's remarkable overnight cleansing process.

Anchor is the only Sleep Series blend in a pot because it's a very strong solid oil (please don't use it on children!). We adore it. It smells absolutely beautiful — soothing and cocooning — and makes a wonderful gift.
