OATMEAL ROSE with Sage: The nurturing, calming and elevating qualities of the Queen of Flowers, the rose, are immediately evident in this salve.

Revitalizes! The rose essence comes not from oil but from a very pure absolute – composed of real roses – and is terrifically dear (takes about 60,000 roses to make one ounce of absolute).

Rose-hip Peppermint
$27.00The PEPPERMINT salve with organic rosehip oil is wonderfully nourishing and cooling on skin. And invigorating! Additionally, this salve is a real BUG REPELLANT (as in viral, microbial or visible bugs) & is outstanding for pain, particularly in an immediate way; it stops inflammation – use for sprains, joints, toothache. It is really antioxidant, a rich source of vitamin C! It is a stimulant, but relaxes sore muscles and that is because it brings the blood to the surface. Rose-hip oil (rich in vitamins A, B, C and E) was used by the Mayans & the Egyptians- even then! as a face moisturizer. So this salve can reduce fine lines and minimize scarring. Plus it is purported to be effective in reducing cellulite.

Chaga – from the Appalachians
$29.00CHAGA: SOLD OUT Includes a tincture of wild-crafted chaga mushrooms with incredible antioxidant reputation. Chaga and calendula are immuno-stimulant. Chaga has reportedly the highest recorded ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbent Capacity) of any natural food. (It scores 6.5 times the Acai berries in antioxidant content.) Also anti-inflammatory. These hard mushrooms that I use grow on Appalachian mountain birch trees and are said to possibly extract their potencies from the trees. Chaga is rich in B vitamins. It is said to be one of the world’s densest sources of pantothenic acid. A little clary sage and organic orange oils make this pleasantly gently fragrant , soothing and anti-microbial.

Rosemary

Ah Rosemary! That’s for remembrance! (Shakespeare). Yes, aroma-therapeutically, the rosemary salve enhances memory & mental stamina.

I prepare the rosemary variety without almond oil for those with allergy. It is made instead with organic flax seed oil. And calendulas, of course. All the salves contain Calendula.

Basket of Medicinals
THIS IS JUST A PICTURE.
The lovely calendula flowers capture healing energy of the sun – only look at the colors! They are grown organically in Southwest Florida. The calendula tinctures ‘cure’ for 2 to 3 years, so there is much potency collected from the flower into the alcohol. The alcohol dissipates upon being blended with the organic oils. I do not filter out all the calendula petals. This is intentional. If you are lucky, you may find one or two inside your salve!
