Tended Skin Herbal Salve

Tended Skin Herbal Salve

A multipurpose herbal salve for skin irritations, bug bites, scrapes, chafing, dry patches, and all the little things that happen to skin.

This is the jar you keep within reach.

Tended Skin is handcrafted with 100% grass-fed tallow and four traditionally used skin herbs — calendula, comfrey, plantain, and yarrow — all grown right here on our property and carefully infused in-house.

From tending the plants to infusing the oil to filling each jar, this salve is truly made from the ground up at Garden & Sword Apothecary.

Reach for it after a long day in the garden, outdoor adventures, bug bites, minor scrapes, chafing, irritated skin, or anytime skin simply needs a little extra tending. Its rich tallow base also creates a protective moisture barrier, making it a beautiful option for baby’s diaper area and other areas prone to moisture and friction.

FOUR HERBS. GROWN HERE. TENDED BY HAND.

Plantain
Traditionally used for bug bites, stings, itching, and minor skin irritations. Plantain has long been one of herbalism’s go-to plants when skin feels irritated after time outdoors.

Comfrey
Traditionally used for minor scrapes, bumps, bruises, tender skin, and supporting the skin’s natural repair process. Historically called knitbone, comfrey has been prized in topical herbal preparations for generations.

Calendula
Traditionally used to soothe irritated, chapped, dry, and delicate skin. Calendula is one of the most treasured herbs in traditional skin care and is especially loved for areas that need gentle tending.

Yarrow
Traditionally used for minor scrapes, bites, irritated skin, and everyday skin discomfort. Yarrow has a long history of topical use and rounds out this four-herb skin infusion.

And these aren’t herbs we simply order and add to a jar.

We grow them.

Our calendula, comfrey, plantain, and yarrow are grown on our own property, harvested and tended by hand, and infused in-house into olive oil before becoming Tended Skin Herbal Salve.
