Medicinal Benefits
Crème de la Crème is an herbal salve for muscle pain, traditionally used to soothe soreness from exercise, sports injuries, and overdoing it physically. The comfrey in this formula has been called “knit-bone” for centuries in folk herbalism because of its traditional association with cell regeneration and tissue repair. That is why it works well for minor scrapes, swellings, and bruises too.
St. John’s Wort has been traditionally used to help soothe nerve discomfort and neuralgia. Together with lavender, this calendula lavender salve may help ease tension and calm the area where it is applied. Calendula is one of the most widely used herbs for skin care worldwide, traditionally relied on for soothing minor wounds and irritations.
Whether you reach for it after a long day, for a minor scrape, or for nerve discomfort, Crème de la Crème gives you the comfrey salve benefits herbalists have relied on for generations. Many customers keep a jar around for the everyday aches and skin problems that come with an active life.
How It Works
The olive oil base moisturizes deeply and carries the botanical ingredients into the skin. Comfrey root contains allantoin, a compound associated with cell turnover and skin repair. Calendula flowers are known for soothing irritated skin, and St. John’s Wort may help with nerve discomfort where it is applied.
Lavender flowers add a calming scent and have been traditionally used to relax tense muscles. Beeswax seals in moisture and forms a protective barrier, while vitamin E provides antioxidant support. Every ingredient is prepared by hand in small batches on the Mendocino Coast.
