Product Specifications

What This Salve Does

A salve is the heaviest tool in the moisturizing kit: oil and butter held in beeswax, so it stays where you put it and keeps working instead of soaking straight in.

Taconic states it treats dry cuticles and cracked skin, prevents chafing, intensely moisturizes the hands, will not clog pores because there is no petroleum in it, and doubles as tattoo aftercare that enhances vibrancy. Those are Taconic’s descriptions of its own salve.

Who This Is Best For

How To Use It

Taconic’s directions: rub it anywhere you need relief from dry or chapped skin. A little goes a long way, so use it sparingly.

Taconic notes the unrefined mango butter may feel slightly grainy at first and melts on contact with the skin.

Care and Storage

Keep the lid seated and the salve out of heat and direct sun, since the base is beeswax. Nothing in it needs refrigerating.
