What I Like
I really like how minimal and transparent this formula is. With just a handful of ingredients, it’s easy to understand exactly what you’re putting on your skin.
Calendula and comfrey are traditionally used to help soothe dryness and irritation, which makes this a nice option for rough patches, hands, elbows, or anywhere that needs extra support.
The beeswax creates a breathable barrier that helps seal in moisture without relying on petroleum-based ingredients.
It’s naturally scented only by the herbs and oils used, with no added fragrance.
EWG rating (EWG analyzer): 2.
Things to Keep in Mind
Because this is a solid lotion bar, it applies more like a balm than a lotion. If you prefer something that spreads quickly over large areas, this may feel too rich for full-body use.
It contains beeswax, so it’s not vegan.
Comfrey is included for its soothing properties. While it’s commonly used topically in small amounts, some people prefer to reserve comfrey-containing products for spot use rather than full-body application, especially for infants under one year.
Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy Considerations
This is generally well-suited for sensitive skin due to the ultra-minimal ingredient list, but patch testing is still a good idea, especially if you’re new to herbal products.
Because this is a topical, leave-on product with concentrated herbs, many people choose to use it as a targeted moisturizer rather than all-over body care during pregnancy.
