Boreal (Evergreen) Hand Salve

$40.00

Spruce. Pine. Fir. Beeswax. Olive Oil. Shea Butter. Essential Oils.

The forests on North Haven have a scent all their own, especially in winter. Cold air, spruce, fir, and pine. This salve was inspired by that landscape.

We harvest conifer needles by hand and slowly infuse them into extra virgin olive oil before blending the oil with our own island beeswax, shea butter, and a small amount of essential oils. The result is a rich hand salve made for dry, hardworking skin.

Conifer needles have long been used in traditional herbalism and folk remedies throughout northern forests, where they're valued for their aromatic oils and their place in salves made for hardworking hands and weathered skin. We like carrying on that tradition with ingredients gathered close to home.

The green color comes naturally from the infused needles. No dyes or artificial colorants.

Whether you've been tending hives, splitting firewood, hauling traps, gardening, or just spending time outside, this salve is made to help protect and soften weathered hands. It goes on smoothly, absorbs well, and leaves behind the clean scent of the Maine woods without feeling overpowering.

Like everything we make, it's handcrafted on North Haven Island using simple, thoughtfully chosen ingredients and contains no petroleum, synthetic preservatives, or artificial fragrances.

Handmade on North Haven Island, 12 miles off the coast of Maine.
