A seasonal combination of vulnerary (wound healing) and moistening herbs to soothe and support the skin-healing process.
Smear this salve on all our minor skin mishaps: cuts, scrapes, bug bites, sore muscles, as well as chapped and cracked hands. From all the 'opes' and 'whoopsies' life throws at you... We also use it as a lip balm, a deep facial moisturizer, and to soften the edges on knees and elbows.
A must-have for cold weather dryness.
Ingredients: violet leaf, plantain leaf, chamomile flowers, st. john's wort flowering tops, and cottonwood bud infused in midwest organic sunflower oil and blended w/ beeswax and Vitamin E oil to create this all purpose skin salve
*we don't use any creepy preservatives so please use within 6-8 months of purchase
2oz tin
