Splinter Be Gone
Splinter Be Gone
This herbal drawing salve is great to use when you need to pull a foreign object or toxins out of a wound. This salve is great for use on splinters, stickers, boils, or other unwanted debris. This must-have first aid salve is made with organic plantain, organic calendula, and organic comfrey infused olive oil, beeswax, vitamin E oil, tea tree essential oil, raw honey, activated charcoal, and bentonite clay. It's great for splinter removal on kids who put up a fuss when you try picking their splinters out as was the inspiration for our family when making this salve.
To use, simply apply the salve to the affected area. Place a bandage over the top of the salve and wound (this is important as the charcoal in the salve will stain clothing). Reapply salve every 2-3 hours or as needed. The deeper the splinter or object, the more applications that may be needed to pull to the surface. May stain clothes, be sure to cover!
