How it works

• Oil-based moisture: rich oils and waxes form a protective layer that helps reduce moisture loss from very dry or overwashed areas.
• Calendula comfort: calendula-infused oil is traditionally used to bring soothing support to skin that has been stressed by weather or frequent washing.
• Comfrey support: comfrey has long been used in topical products to help the body remember its own patterns of mending.
• Focus on rough spots: works best when massaged into specific areas like knuckles, heels, elbows, and gardened hands.

Botanical rationale

Calendula and comfrey are classic Western herbal allies for skin that has been worked hard or exposed to the elements. This salve concentrates them in a thick, oil-based formula meant for local application rather than all-over daily moisturizing.

Formulation logic

The salve is intentionally firm in the jar and softens with body warmth. This helps it stay where you put it and gives time for massage into dry or rough patches.

Sensory notes

• Thick, ointment-like consistency.
• Melts with warmth and leaves a protective sheen.
• Herbal aroma from infused oils and essential oils.

Evidence class

• Long-standing traditional use of calendula and comfrey in topical salves.
• Sensory feedback from gardeners, homesteaders, and people who wash hands frequently.
• Formulation based on classic herbal salve structures, not pharmaceutical creams.
