Ingredients & Craftsmanship At Wisemountain Botanicals, potency is born from patience. We begin with fresh yarrow, lavender, calendula, comfrey, plantain, and chickweed—harvested at peak seasonal potency. Each herb is then gently infused by the sun’s energy in organic olive oil for one complete lunar cycle, a slow process that captures the full medicinal virtues of the fresh plant material. We then hand-press these oils and blend them with: Pure filtered beeswax Organic unrefined shea butter Vitamin E oil This creates a deeply emollient and regenerative base. Finally, we add organic or wildcrafted essential oils of Roman chamomile, rosemary, frankincense, pinon pine, silver fir, lemon, and lemongrass. Benefits & Uses for First Aid The result is a versatile, multi-purpose salve for your mindful medicine cabinet. Its antimicrobial and skin-supporting properties make it ideal for: Minor cuts and scrapes Insect bites Minor burns Soothing rashes and fungal discomfort Nourishing dry, chapped skin This 2 oz. jar, packaged in glass to preserve integrity, is a small-batch testament to respectful craft—replacing a shelf of single-purpose products with one potent, plant-based formula. How to Use & Safety Information To use, apply a thin layer to the affected area one to three times daily. Our salve uses Comfrey (*Symphytum officinale*) for its renowned topical regenerative properties and is considered safe for minor, superficial wounds. As a standard precaution for any first aid, we recommend consulting a physician for deep or serious injuries. For topical use only. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Frequently Asked Questions About Herbal First Aid Salve Is this salve safe to use on children/pets? Our Herbal First Aid Salve is formulated for topical human use only. We recommend consulting a pediatrician for use on children or a veterinarian for pets, especially due to the presence of potent essential oils. Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin first. How long does one 2 oz jar typically last with regular use? A jar's lifespan depends on the frequency and size of the area treated. For a minor cut used twice daily, it can last several months, as the salve is concentrated and a little goes a long way. For larger areas like burns, you will naturally use it more quickly. I have a nut/tree pollen/beeswax/essential oil allergy. Is this salve safe for me? This salve contains potential allergens including beeswax, organic shea butter (a tree nut derivative), and various plant-based essential oils. We strongly advise consulting with your doctor or allergist and always conducting a patch test on a small area of skin before any full application. Can this be used on open wounds, or only on closed/scraped skin? It is designed for minor wounds, cuts, and scrapes. For any deep, large, or heavily bleeding wound, seek professional medical attention first. For minor open wounds, clean the area thoroughly before applying a thin layer of salve. What is the shelf life of the salve, and how should I store it? Due to its all-natural ingredients, the salve has a shelf life of approximately 1-2 years. To preserve its potency, store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and moisture. The glass jar helps with this preservation. Is this product vegan/vegetarian? This salve is not vegan as it contains pure filtered beeswax. It is suitable for vegetarians. Our beeswax is ethically sourced and carefully filtered for purity and quality. How is this different from a standard antibiotic ointment or other first aid creams? Unlike single-agent antibiotic ointments, our salve uses a synergistic blend of fresh, antimicrobial, and regenerative herbs. It's crafted in small batches from organic and wildcrafted ingredients, sun-infused for a full lunar cycle, and contains no petroleum-based ingredients. Can this salve be used for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or severe dry skin? This salve is specifically formulated for minor first aid conditions like cuts and burns. While ingredients like calendula and shea butter are soothing, it is not designed or tested for chronic skin conditions. We recommend consulting a dermatologist and performing a patch test first.
