Herbals for skin care

I have very sensitive skin. Untreated with plantain, a mosquito bite will last for several weeks. This is unpleasant. To get a rash from poison ivy, I just need to turn my back and it spits the offending oils at me. This time I actually grabbed a leafless vine and got a small patch on the back of my right hand. Now it has spread secondary infections have popped up covering my belly, neck, and splotches on the opposite arm. after 13 days, I think the weeping blister phase is over so now I can work on healing the resulting rough shoe-leather feeling rashes. Yay for plantain/ mullein/ dock salve!

My ongoing most recent tangle with winter-bare poison ivy has prompted me to look for ways to make my skin healthier. My immediate plan is to infuse some coconut oil with comfrey. Coconut oil Comfrey is a cell proliferant, so that's gotta help.

What would ya'll put in your salve? Why would you include it?

Are there herbs that work in food to help with this?

Witchhazel is excellent at combatting skin inflammation.  I made a decoction from a few handfuls of bark and twigs, and it has surprisingly string effect.

We’ve used a wonderful Comfrey and Mallow (w/ almond and wheat germ) foot balm from Neal’s Yard that is absorbed into the skin. The label lists the ingredients as:

I love herbal skin care so much!
For my skin, i use natural aloe vera from my garden. It works like magic

Beside the topical application, I would add that ingesting certain herbs and foods is also crucial for skin care.  Plantain and mullein can be drunk as a tea.  Dandelion and burdock root can be eaten.  And don't forget to eat foods which have chicken skin, pig skin, connective tissues, bones, etc.
