Summer Skin Salve

Description

Keep your skin radiant and healthy this summer with this all-purpose salve. Packed with a number of local and foraged plants, this salve was crafted to heal most summer aches and pains like minor sunburns, chapped limps, new and old bug bites, and tired shoulders.

• Comfrey Oil: a popular skin-healing powerhouse, comfrey leaves encourage new cell growth and the closing of bumps, cuts and scrapes.
• Sweetfern Oil: a bushy Maine native, this plant is a lifesaver for pesky and painfully itchy bug bites. One application is all that’s needed for instant itchy relief.
• Plantain Oil: with leaves that are commonly used as poultices, this herbal oil takes care of inflamed and angry skin and soothes irritated spots.
• Spearmint Oil: as a popular summertime herb, the smell of mint uplifts the spirit when inhaled, while cooling and soothing the skin when applied topically.
• Dandelion Oil: an important weedy ally when painful and awkward sunburn spots become too unbearable.
• Cinquefoil Oil: a wild native plant provides powerful burn relief when used as a poultice or in a salve.
• Goldenrod Oil: although these sunny flowers are used in tinctures for allergy related symptoms, it’s used here to help heal and provide relief from any strains, aches, and pains you might accumulate over the summer.
