Portland Bee Balm Simple Salve All Natural Handmade Beeswax Based Hand and Body Moisturizing Balm

I tried this on impulse because of the natural and limited organic ingredients, and I wanted to support beekeepers and local small business. There is no fragrance, too, so it makes perfect gifts for friends who work in medicine and nursing, wash hands all day long and can't use perfumed lotions or balms. The color is natural, too. No dyes, no fillers, just wholesome ingredients that keep your sking moisturized without grease. Love it for cuticle care, too. It's pretty much a perfect item in my books.

Absolutely awesome salve! I’ve been looking for something to moisturize and relieve extreme dryness. I work with cotton fabrics regularly, so combined with the cold weather, my hands look and feel like old cardboard. This product felt amazing when I applied it - immediate relief! The salve is more waxy than creamy, so you have to scrape with your fingernail a wee bit to get the product out, which makes no difference to me. A little goes quite a long way and depending how much you use, you may have to work it into your skin for a couple minutes. I’m so happy I ran across this during my search for a product with beeswax; this is a keeper and I won’t be without it again. Highly recommend!

I use the lip balm in the tubes from this company and have had the tin for a while now. I mostly use it on my lips and face sometimes but I even put it on the ends of my hair. Not oily at all, just pure waxy buttery that really coats.

I needed a really simple, non-stinging, unscented, As Basic As Possible healing salve for my cats' snouts, which were suffering in a dry climate. This balm interested me because of its simple ingredients. As a West Coast girl, the ingredients list was actually what sold me, because there's only TWO THINGS IN THIS SALVE! You really can't beat having just TWO items on the ingredients list: 1. California Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2. Pacific Northwest Beeswax. Simple, effective ingredients with great healing power. If my cats end up licking this Portland Bee Balm off their noses before it can sink in, I'm not worried about them accidentally getting poisoned. Portland Bee Balm is also just a great all-purpose healing salve. Hand salve, cuticle balm, lip balm, it does it all. For those with a sensitivity to fragrances (myself included), Portland Bee Balm is unscented, but it actually does have a scent - just not from "fragrance." Portland Bee Balm has a really lovely and gentle scent that kind of smells like honey and hay, because olive oil and beeswax have mild, natural scents. I love Portland Bee Balm. Highly recommended!

This balm is the most natural and simple and effective I have used. I handle cardboard boxes that are dusty a lot because of my job. Even in the cold this balm keeps the skin on my hands from splitting that causes pain and bleeding. Amazing stuff

Nothing compares to this quality skin salve. I use it every day on my face, hands, and anywhere I have dry skin. Easy to take with me on-the-go. The smell is mild and smells like bees wax.

I like the Portland Bee Balm lip balm with zinc oxide, so I thought that I would try their simple salve. My hands gave been so dry lately, so I put the salve on at night to keep the moisture in. It comes in a tin as a solid, but it melts as I rub it into my hands. Sometimes I use it in between times during the day too. Another good product from Portland Bee Balm!

I faithfully use their lip balm so I thought I’d give this a go. It works very well but I deducted a star because it feels a little greasy
