An ointment is often fattier than a cream and is used on specific skin areas that require extra care. It can be dry areas on the face, hands and feet or dry elbows. It may also be that an ointment is required for delicate and irritated skin in both adults and children or for skin problems such as eczema and acne. A natural organic salve contains fattier vegetable oils that form a thin protective film and can thus retain moisture in the skin. The properties of the organic ointments you find with us can be many. Emollient, moisturizing, protective, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial are just some of the amazing properties an ointment can have.
