Description
This is the salve I made because I needed it — and couldn't find anything that actually worked. I originally called it our "Magic Fairy Balm"; my girls and I always had a tin on hand for whenever life happened. It's a rich, herb-infused body balm crafted the way my grandma taught me: pure olive oil, beeswax, and shea butter blended into a dense, silky salve that melts on contact with warm skin.

Calendula — historically used for minor skin irritations and dry, tender skin
-
Comfrey — traditionally known as "knitbone," long used in folk practice for supporting healthy skin after bumps and bruises
-
Plantain — a classic field herb, traditionally applied to bug bites and itchy skin
-
Stinging Nettle — historically used in topical preparations for irritated skin
-
Yarrow — known in traditional herbalism as a "woundwort," long used for minor scrapes and everyday skin complaints
How to Use
Apply a small amount to clean skin as needed. For dry patches or areas needing extra attention, apply generously and cover overnight. Safe for face, body, lips, and hands. A little goes a long way. For external use only.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Best used within 12 months of opening. Use clean, dry hands or a spatula to scoop — keeping water out of the jar preserves shelf life naturally.
