im a lifetime customer after using this pine tar salve as well as the black walnut salve and hand healer in lavender. I work manual labor in a refrigerated space and spend my free time hiking and doing a variety of hands on activities. I use to wear gloves at work and would try big brand moisturizers only to have my hands continuously dry out and my skin feel weak. I've been using the products I listed above as needed over the past three years and I no longer need gloves at work 40hrs a week in 34° temps hands on, out on trail for days on end, dry winters hot summers etc my hands stays strong my skin remains moisturized and healthier than I ever thought was possible
very good product. It's having a positive effect on my skin condition.
This has an undeniably woodsy, smoky aroma but I'm all about those kinds of scents so I don't mind. It calms skin irritation and speeds up healing effectively with regular use. This is something I'll be keeping around all the time, especially when winter-inflamed skin sets in.
The smell can be strong. Being used after a tick bite to heal the skin. Being used to remove splinters and it worked . Love to support a local business. Jeanette
I had a deep splinter in the palm of my hand last week and reached for this and put a band aid over it. Next day, the splinter was at the surface and easy to remove. My mom always had drawing salve in the medicine cabinet when we were young. Now it's hard to find. Thank you for carrying this!
