Breathe salve (30ml)
Ingredients:
šæ Jojoba oil, White Sage herbal oil, Shea butter & Beeswax.
šæ Essential oils: Eucalyptus dives, Lavender, Rosemary ct cineole.Jojoba oil is a gentle, skin-compatible carrier oil that closely mimics the skin's natural sebum. It offers antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound-healing benefits, helping to soothe irritation, maintain moisture balance, and support skin healing.ā
White Sage herbal oil contains high levels of 1,8 cineole (eucalyptol). Using this herbal oil makes the aroma of the salve more grounded, camphourous and powerful.
Shea butter is a rich emollient from the nut of the African shea tree, prized for its deep moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and skin barrier repair properties that soothe irritation and support healing.
Beeswax provides a protective barrier on the skin that helps seal in moisture while allowing the skin to breathe. It also contributes to the salve's smooth texture and slow absorption for lasting effects.
Eucalyptus dives has a strong herbaceous, woody, minty scent that is stimulating and uplifting. Eucalyptus dives is a beautiful essential oil that can help clear up congestion and help stop sniffles.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) helps ease respiratory tightness and help promote a sense of open airways when combined with camphor or eucalyptus in a chest rub. Salves base-infused with lavender provide gentle, soothing moisture to dry or irritated skin around the nose from frequent wiping.
Rosemary ct cineole essential oil, rich in 1,8-cineole, acts as an expectorant and anti-inflammatory agent, aiding mucus clearance and soothing respiratory discomfort. It also supports mental focus and reduces fatigue with its stimulating aroma.ā
Together, these ingredients create a therapeutic salve that helps open and soothe the respiratory pathways, reduce inflammation, ease congestion, and provide antimicrobial protection, all while nourishing and protecting the skin with jojoba oil and beeswax.
DILUTION: 3%
This recipe is good for ages 6 years and up.

To use the breathe salve, scoop a small amount and gently massage it onto the chest, neck, and upper back areas. These areas allow the vapors from the essential oils to be inhaled easily, supporting clearer breathing and relaxation. Application can be repeated every few hours as needed, especially during cold or allergy seasons.
It is important to avoid applying the salve on broken skin or near the eyes, and to perform a patch test first to check for skin sensitivity. This method of use combines topical benefits of the carrier oils with aromatherapeutic effects of the essential oils for holistic respiratory relief and comfort.

Origin
Essential oils come from plant parts like flowers, leaves, or bark via steam distillation or cold pressing, capturing the plant's natural essence. Fragrance oils, however, are lab-created using synthetic chemicals, to replicate scents.āUses and Benefits
Essential oils suit aromatherapy due to therapeutic properties, like easing headaches with peppermint. Fragrance oils excel in candles, and soaps for their strong, consistent throw and longevity under heat. Although fragrance oils should not be used in skin care, a lot of (online) vendors do.Eco-Wise Packaging, Every Time!
