Product Information

Full details

This C.O. Bigelow Herbal Mint Salve is designed for adults seeking a versatile balm to soothe and protect dry skin and lips. Its key benefit is the deep moisturization provided by a blend of natural emollients, effectively preventing chapped and irritated areas. A minor consideration is that while versatile, it is primarily formulated as a lip salve, and its scent may be strong for some users.

FAQs

What are the main ingredients?

The main emollients include Cotton Seed Oil, Jojoba Oil, Lanolin, and Squalane, combined with a Herbal Mint blend. The specific formula is developed by C.O. Bigelow Chemists.

Can this be used on children?

The product is marketed for adult use. While the ingredients are generally gentle, it's recommended to consult with a pediatrician before using on children, especially given the mint content.

How often should I reapply?

Apply liberally to the desired area and reapply as needed, especially after eating, drinking, or exposure to harsh conditions.

Is this product vegan?

The product contains Lanolin, which is derived from sheep's wool, so it is not vegan.

What is the scent profile?

The salve features a refreshing scent of cooling peppermint.

Where is this product made?

This product is made in the USA.

Does this product contain SPF?

This product description does not mention SPF protection. It is designed for moisturizing and protecting dry skin, not for sun protection.

Troubleshooting

Product feels too thick or waxy

Warm a small amount between your fingertips before applying. Natural emollients can firm up in cooler temperatures.

Slight irritation after application

Discontinue use if irritation persists. While formulated with gentle ingredients, individual sensitivities can occur. Perform a patch test on a small area of skin first.

Container is difficult to open

Ensure you are twisting the correct parts of the container. If the lid is stuck, try running the lid under warm water for a few seconds, then try again.
