Herbal Salves
A salve is a thick, spreadable balm made by infusing herbs into oil and setting it with wax. Each handmade salve is built around one main herb or blend, made in small batches and poured by hand.

Choosing a salve
How our salves differ
All our salves share the same simple base. What changes is the herb, the scent and the size.
- The main herb: Each salve is named after its key plant. The full list is on every product page.
- Texture: Our salves are firm in the tin and soften with the warmth of your hand.
- Size: Smaller tins travel well; larger jars suit regular use at home.
Ingredients and process
Herbal salve ingredients: what goes into the jar
We slowly infuse herbs into oil, strain it, then add wax to set it. Several of our salves start with plants that grow here, which makes each one a true Alaska herbal salve. Every product page shows exactly what’s inside.
Use and care
Using and storing your salve
Follow the directions on your product’s label. Keep the lid tight and store it somewhere cool and out of direct sun. Salves can soften in heat; that’s normal.
Allergy note: Our products are made in a home with cats. If you have a cat allergy, please keep this in mind before you order.
Salve questions
Why did my salve go soft?
Heat softens wax-based products. Put it somewhere cooler and it will firm up again.
How long does a salve keep?
Check the label on your jar for its best-by date, and store it cool and dry.
Are the herbs from Alaska?
Some are. Each product page tells you where its main herb comes from.
