Pain balms infused with yucca root are primarily used for their potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain-relieving) properties. Derived from Yucca schidigera and related species, the root contains a unique blend of phytochemicals that target the biological drivers of joint and muscle discomfort. Traditionally used by Native Americans, yucca root is frequently included in modern topical balms to alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis . It is often

2025 was the hardest year of my life. In February we lost my sister-in-law then in May my mother-in-law passed away. Six weeks apart. We were shattered. For months Tim and I had to navigate life in the deepest grief, trying to figure out how to just function each day. The heartache and grief were hard enough. But the legal stuff you have to deal with after a loss is beyond exhausting. And doing it for two people made it twice as hard. Every tragedy in my life, (and there's be

In the world of personal care, achieving the perfect balm—one that is both deeply moisturizing and maintains its shape in a warm pocket or purse—is a delicate art. The secret weapon for many modern, clean beauty brands is Candelilla wax ( Euphorbia cerifera ), a phenomenal, plant-based wax from the leaves of a desert shrub. It's more than just a vegan substitute for beeswax; it brings unique, high-performance benefits to both lip and body balms. It's harder than beeswax and h

Why do we spend so much time and energy stressing over eating foods we enjoy? Especially during the holidays. We put so much pressure on ourselves, usually because of fear of gaining weight. But I believe we should stop putting so much pressure on ourselves. There are many ways we can both enjoy the foods we love, and have self control. If you are the baker, this can be a bit harder but it's not impossible. My number one tip is, plan ahead. Look at your week ahead and figure

Raw mango butter is a natural, creamy, semi-solid fat mechanically extracted from the de-shelled seed kernel of the mango fruit ( Mangifera indica ). It is "raw" or "unrefined" because it has not undergone bleaching, deodorizing, or other chemical processes, thus retaining its natural properties, vitamins, and a faint, sometimes nutty or earthy, scent (it does not smell like the fruit itself). There are significant benefits for body and skin care due to its rich content of fa

Arnica-infused oil is a natural topical product made by steeping the flowers of the Arnica montana plant in a carrier oil (we use grapeseed oil) over a period of several weeks, allowing the plant's therapeutic compounds to infuse into the base oil. The resulting golden-hued oil is a popular herbal remedy for external use. It's a staple in pain balms due to its potent anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, which help to reduce swelling, ease muscle soreness, and acc

Our Magnesium Spray is made with magnesium from the Dead Sea. It offers various benefits, primarily due to its high concentration of pure, natural magnesium chloride and other vital minerals like potassium and calcium. These benefits are delivered through topical (transdermal) absorption, which is especially useful for targeting specific areas and bypassing the digestive system.  (please note, our newest batches have been slightly reformulated from the first batch which was a

That's because people see the words "pain relief" and they are instantly interested! So many people are in pain on a regular basis. Including me! I've had a lot of people asking for magnesium spray lately. So I formulated and made that.( Magnesium Spray ) When talking with people about it, many said they wanted something to help w

Menthol relieves pain through a combination of topical mechanisms, primarily by interacting with temperature-sensitive nerve receptors in the skin. This interaction creates a cooling or warming sensation that overrides and distracts the brain from deeper pain signals. Menthol directly binds to and activates a protein called Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 (TRPM8) in the sensory nerves of your skin. This tricks your brain into perceiving a cooling sensation, even tho

Evening primrose oil (EPO) offers several potential benefits for facial skincare, primarily due to its high concentration of omega-6 essential fatty acids, especially gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). These fatty acids possess anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties that can be particularly helpful for dry, sensitive, and aging skin. . EPO's potent anti-inflammatory effects can help calm irritated or reactive skin, making it useful for conditions like rosacea, eczema, and pos
