More about the ingredients:
Calendula (marigold) Oil (certified organic)
Extracted from the organic flowers with CO₂ gas, the botanical extract is pure, gentle and concentrated. It is then mixed with cold pressed organic jojoba oil. Calendula is renowned for its ability to soothe, calm, deeply nourish and restore the skin. The jojoba oil it is mixed with additionally softens the skin.
Comfrey Oil (certified organic)
This oil is made by steeping the organic leaves and roots in organic sunflower oil and shaking vigorously daily for up to 6 weeks. The plant material is then filtered off leaving the sunflower oil containing the therapeutic properties of the comfrey plant material. This is called a macerated oil. Comfrey is well known for its remarkable ability to promote healthy new skin growth. The sunflower oil enables the therapeutic properties to be readily absorbed by the skin and also nourishes the skin. There is much debate but some experts state that comfrey oil should not be used during pregnancy or when breastfeeding. For this reason we advise the ointment is not used by women during these times.
Chamomile botanical extract (certified organic)
Extracted with CO₂ gas this botanical extract is pure, concentrated and powerful. It is mixed with organic jojoba oil and is extremely calming and soothing on irritated skin.
Safflower Oil (certified organic)
This oil has a high content of omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids that are required for healthy skin. It is extremely nourishing and ideal for sensitive and problem skin.
Natural Vitamin E
A strong antioxidant that is well known for restoring and promoting healthy skin. The natural vitamin E used in this oil is derived from soya and sunflower oils (GMO free).
Beeswax (certified organic)
Beeswax gives this ointment its consistency and creates a protective barrier for the skin to reduce drying out. We use natural, unrefined, organic beeswax from a fair-trade project.
