The anti-aging properties and anti-wrinkle properties of elderflower make the salve beneficial for older skin and mature skin.

Ingredients:
infused elderflower jojoba oil, vitamin e oil, shea butter, beeswax, juniper essential oil, elderberry essential oil
How to use:
Remove a small amount of Creme from the container. A cosmetic spatula or small spoon are my tools of choice to remove herbal salve from the container.
Massage the creme into the skin using gentle, circular motions. Allow the salve a few moments to absorb into the skin.
The creme is very nourishing and a little goes a long way with this homemade skincare product. A small, hazelnut-sized dollop is enough to cover a large area (e.g. both hands or 1 lower leg.)
For the best moisturisation, apply a moisturizer, like our goat milk lotion, or our tallow first. Then follow up with this creme to lock the moisture into the skin.
Since the creme formulation doesn’t contain water, we don’t have to add a preservative. When taking out product, be careful not to introduce water as it could spoil the salve accidentally.
How long does this last and how to store:
For the best shelf life, store the elderflower creme in a cool and dry location. The oils, shea butter, and wax are temperature sensitive. Heat above room temperature will melt the salve and can inhibit the pleasant scent.
The shelf life of the homemade elderflower creme is 2 years if made with fresh materials.
One 3oz container. No returns.
