**Holodiscus discolor** is a shrub whose dried leaves and bark are traditionally made into teas, tinctures, or topical preparations. It is mainly used for skin conditions such as photoprotection, actinic keratosis clearance after photodynamic therapy, and symptomatic relief of atopic dermatitis, with limited evidence for other dermatologic uses. Because human clinical data are sparse, use is generally restricted to small, short‑term topical applications and should be avoided in people with known allergies or when used in combination with other skin‑active medications.
