Plantain Salve

My hands do a lot of manual work and I am constantly washing them, as a result. I often get ripped cuticles and (especially) in the wintertime, split fingertips along the nails. This salve is a lifesaver! I keep a tin in my desk drawer and one in a drawer by the couch. I buff a tiny bit into my cuticles, nail beds and around the edges of my nails. Any tiny rips or traumas heal up super quick, and if I am diligent about using, those frayed edges seldom even happen!

I started using this salve for my fingers which develop cracks because of the dry weather even though I have used commercial Hand Creams on a regular basis. I asked Theresa if she could recommend something for my hands and she said to try the Plantain Salve she makes. This has been truly wonderful for not only helping a finger split heal but also has helped to prevent them happening so often. I have sent some Plaintain Salve to my 91 year old mother who gets splits in the pads of her fingers and has told me that this has helped her as well. Thank you Theresa!!
