COMFREY OINTMENT

Both sizes are exactly the same formula, just the 15ml we call it lip balm for its wnderful as a lip balm for very dry cracked lips

What is it?
Our comfrey ointment is a traditional, slow-absorbing topical remedy. Its "Slow Skin Care" approach keeps active ingredients localized, forming a protective barrier while delivering nourishing benefits to your skin.

We make our ointment using a slow infusion of certified organic comfrey root in certified organic olive oil, complemented by locally sourced, low-heated beeswax. We choose the root over the leaves due to its higher concentration of beneficial compounds and compliance with Australian regulations on comfrey usage.

Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:

• Allantoin: Promotes cell regeneration.
• Rosmarinic Acid: Known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
• Tannins: Astringent qualities that help protect and calm damaged tissues.
• Mucilage: Forms a soothing, protective barrier, aiding in moisture retention.
• Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids (PAs): Present in small amounts, these compounds support healing but are toxic if used internally or on broken skin.
• Saponins: Contribute to gentle cleansing and anti-inflammatory effects.

Why Comfrey Root?

Comfrey root is a great choice for thin, dry, or scarred skin. It hydrates deeply and stimulates skin cell growth, making it ideal for small areas of bruised, battered, or dry skin.

Note: We use only the root in our ointment, as the leaves are more suited for compresses and poultices. Comfrey leaf contains fewer concentrated compounds but offers additional antioxidant benefits. Please avoid internal consumption of comfrey leaf due to safety concerns.

Why Use an Ointment?
Ointments date back to ancient remedies and are known for their thick, absorbent consistency. They are designed to stay topical, allowing the active ingredients to work where they are most needed.
