Wild Resin Hand Salve
Soothe & repair dry, damaged hands with the best farm, forest & desert botanicals.
Made from five potent ingredients:
· Balsam Poplar Buds. Wild harvested, these resinous spring buds are rich in propolis & salicin. Propolis is anti-inflammatory – which reduces redness. Salicin is metabolized by your body into salicylic acid (commonly found in aspirin), relieving pain. (If you have an allergy to aspirin, this product is not for you.)
· Douglas-Fir Resin. Secreted by the tree from broken branches or as defense against invading insects, we seek out and carefully collect this precious amber coloured resin. Remarkably similar to frankincense in its chemical profile, it contains terpenes with antiseptic, antimicrobial & anti-inflammatory properties that provide strong protection against infection.
· Kalahari Melon Seed Oil – the ground seeds of this wild ancestor to the watermelon have long been used by the San people of the Kalahari Desert to protect their skin against the harsh climate. Packed with antioxidants – it helps repair damaged skin & strengthen fingernails. Excellent for sensitive skin.
· Immortelle - speeds healing of cuts, scrapes, burns & blisters
· Candelilla Wax – naturally high levels of vitamin A moisturizes your skin
5 ml. Vegan.
Directions: Only tiny amounts are needed! Gently circle fingertip on the salve surface – allowing your body heat to melt a small amount onto your finger. Massage this into your hands thoroughly. Re-apply after hand washing and at end of day.
