Dandelion Flower Salve

The Dandelion Flower Salve is made from fresh dandelion flowers. Yes, those pesky, yet beautiful weeds you see in the springtime have healing properties and we captured it into this amazing salve. Freshly picked flowers infused in almond oil, then  beeswax, Shea butter and vitamin E are added.  Grapefruit seed extract is used to preserve it. 

We extract the essence of the flowers in slow heat for hours, then filter it for impurities.  We then gently combine this in low heat with Shea butter for hours, creating the perfect skin salve.

This salve is used to help soothe chapped or cracked skin. It also helps with aches and pains, such as sore muscles. It's great to use post workout. It also works for tight muscles and joint pain and works great as a massage oil for pain relief.

Shea butter has the following benefits:

• It hydrates the skin. 
• It has anti-inflammatory properties that help to alleviate skin issues. 
• It has the ability to remedy cuts and scrapes. 
• It helps in the prevention of acne. 
• It contains antioxidants which are thought to have anti-aging abilities
