At one time or another we all suffer from chafing and blisters. Whether you are a veteran marathoner, triathlete, walker, cyclist, other professional, or a kid in a bathing suit, there is nothing that spoils that "feel good" state of mind than a nasty patch of raw skin or a blister. HEALing Fields has been working with members of the local running community and other professionals to develop an all-natural skin lubricant, SALVE-ATION™. Our product both protects and nourishes the skin. SALVE-ATION™ can be used anywhere and in any activity where skin and fabrics, or synthetics meet repetitively. Whether your thighs rub together, or you're a professional who engages in repetitive motions, SALVE-ATION™will mitigate the "burn."
HEALing Fields truly believes that what you put on and in your body matters and in treating every individual as a whole. Promoting a whole body lifestyle and our 100% natural pro-active approach to well-being, we chose the highest quality botanicals and ingredients to address all of the layers of the skin. These include:
Coconut and palm kernel oil both contain lauric acid, which is a medium chain fatty acid that has many anti-bacterial and anti-viral uses.
Candelilla Wax, a plant derived wax, increases the time of natural emollients on the skin providing a protective, moisture resistent environment for the skin.
Grapeseed oil contains potent antioxidants diminishing the damaging effects of the sun and free radicals. It is infused with organic comfrey leaves and calendula petals. Comfrey's main constituents (allantoin and rosemarinic acid) are reported to have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and astringent effects. They also facilitate the healing of contusions and stimulate regeneration of connective tissue.
Mango butter contains retinol (Vitamin A). A number of studies have shown that retinol stimulates the production of elastin and collagen resulting in smoother and more elastic skin.
Cocoa butter contans a rich source of antioxidants such as Vitamin E, which helps soothe and moisturize the skin and stimulates collagen production.
