Anti-Itch Plantain Salve
Plantain. Not the banana cultivar, but the green superstar anti-itch "weed" that grows in your own backyard!
Here I combine a long-term infusion of Plantago lancelota & Plantago major in organic olive oil and pure beeswax.
That’s it. Nothing but pure plant power. What results is a SUPERIOR naturally anti-itch salve that can be used as first aid on a full range of skin ailments.
This salve comes in a 1 oz reusable tin. Perfect as a gift, as an addition to your growing herbal medicine cabinet, or as a top player in your herbal first aid kit. This is small batch, slow herbalism at its finest.
Benefits:
Soothes itchy skin: Reduces itching, irritation, and inflammation caused by insect bites, minor cuts, scrapes, and skin conditions like eczema and dermatitis.
Anti-inflammatory: Plantain's anti-inflammatory properties help reduce swelling and redness.
Antimicrobial: Prevents infection by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and fungi.
Wound healing: Promotes wound healing by increasing collagen synthesis and tissue repair.
Skin protection: Forms a protective barrier on the skin's surface, shielding it from further irritation.
Applications:
1. Insect bites (mosquitoes, bees, wasps, etc.)
2. Minor cuts and scrapes
3. Eczema and dermatitis
4. Skin irritations (sunburn, windburn, etc.)
5. Poison ivy, oak, or sumac exposure
6. Minor burns
7. Chafing and chapping
8. Skin allergies and reactions
