Nettle leaf extract benefits for skin and hair

From the creator: “I use this salve explicitly on cracked dry fingers, and sunburned skin. Our family wouldn’t have made it another day without an emergency batch of this salve gifted to me by one of our honoured matriarchs and healers. We went on our first vacation and my poor fair kids had burns that looked like chemical burns. One application and they were on their way to healing. I’ve blended mine with vitamin e , and a small amount of pure “wild chamomile” essential oil from a secret source so it’s safe for our little ones, and has that extra boost.”
