Ingredient list:

Calendula, Yarrow, Plantain- All herbs very known for their potent healing qualities. Applied to superficial wounds on the skin, including actions: Anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antimicrobial, astringent and antiseptic, (among many others!) 

Siberian Cedar Resin- a misnomer of sorts, this is actually a Pine resin. Pine has been used by Indigenous peoples all across the Northern Hemisphere in first aid balms and ointments. Much as tree resins protect trees after they have been cut into, broken or bruised, they aid our skin by adding a protective layer over a wound. Antibacterial, antifungal and hydrophobic properties allow for faster healing with little to no scarring in most cases

Myrrh Resin- often used as the bitter counterpart to Frankincense in magic and perfumery, myrrh has been used to heal skin and oral issues for almost all of history. Associated with the moon, it lends itself to more watery issues, church often include matters of the skin and inflammation.

Jojoba oil- actually a wax ester and not an oil specifically, jojoba oil mimics our skin’s natural oils, meaning faster and more easy- non greasy- absorption that promotes faster skin regeneration

Sweet Almond, Olive, babasu, evening primrose oils- omega 3 packed oils that blend perfectly to extract plant material and hold them against the skin as they’re absorbed.
