If you spend time in the garden and want a traditional plant ally ready for skin that’s been out among leaves, grasses and mystery plants, reach for jewelweed.
Jewelweed Herbal Salve, formerly known as Ancient Healer Salve (labeled 2007–2018), is a plant-based remedy crafted to soothe itchy skin and a range of outdoor skin irritations. It’s ideal for swimmers’ itch, insect bites, scratches, burns, rashes, allergic reactions, and other itchy skin concerns, delivering comforting relief wherever you are outside.
How it works
- Jewelweed extract: jewelweed is traditionally used as an outdoor companion for skin that has met plants, bugs, heat, or summer environments.
- Oil-based comfort: the salve base helps hold herbal constituents against the skin surface for longer contact than a rinse-off product.
- Localized application: designed to be used on small areas rather than all-over body use.
- Seasonal ally: especially suited to warm-weather and outdoor seasons.
Botanical rationale
Jewelweed has a strong folk reputation among hikers, gardeners, and woods-walkers as a plant ally for ordinary summer skin annoyances. This salve offers jewelweed in a convenient, topical form.
Formulation logic
The salve medium is chosen so that jewelweed and companion herbs remain in contact with the skin long enough to offer comfort, without relying on harsh additives.
Sensory notes
- Soft, balm-like texture.
- Herbal, “green” aroma.
- Best applied in a thin layer as needed.
