You’ve got to love a company with the name Motherlove. Really. We all need motherlove– as children, as mothers, as women. Beyond that, you’ll find more to love. Motherlove is dedicated to consistent quality to craft the finest, purest products, and using certified organic ingredients designed to nurture, soothe and heal women on their all-important journey of nurturing life.
Add to that: All their office supplies and packaging are made from recycled materials (as is all company literature), they manufacture using wind credits, none of their products are ever tested on animals and are completely cruelty free.
Motherlove also believes in supporting the social environment with their Nurturing Life Foundation, which promotes breastfeeding and supports mothers-in-need nationwide. Over 10% of all Motherlove Herbal Company’s profits are donated to organizations that truly help nurture life, like The Maternal Wellness Center, Realities for Children and The Mountain Park Environmental Center.
Love it. And I had the pleasure of sampling their Green Salve. It came to me at the waning days of summer, when my youngest was covered in bug bites– from head to toe. Seems that bugs like her more than the rest of us. We won’t even notice any bugs, and she is full of bites. It is so sad!
This little girl has lots of experience with creams. She has awful eczema that crops up often, and we are always searching for ways to tame her painful, dry and cracked patches. So she was a bit skeptical about this salve. My girl will scream enough to rattle your eardrums if any cream or salve stings.
Thankfully, Motherlove’s Green Salve did not sting my sweet girl. In fact, I gave it to her to self apply, because it contains no offensive ingredients– only olive oil, beeswax, comfrey, plantain, marshmallow root, and calendula to be exact. It calmed her bites, and she didn’t’ howl, which is always good!
The Green Salve also quickly and effectively takes the pain and itch out of bee stings and poison ivy. It soothes and softens rashes, alleviates chapped, irritated skin, and even eases the discomforts of eczema. It heals wounds with minimal or no scarring.
I’ll put it to the test with her awful eczema as soon as I see a flare up. I know at least that it won’t sting.
Motherlove has MUCH more to offer– such as pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and baby products to help women in every stage. I wish I would have known about Motherlove when I was pregnant, birthing and taking care of a newborn. They have much to offer, and I think it speaks bounds that they offer so many safe and healthy products for expecting and new mamas, who need all the support they can get!
Thanks to Motherlove for providing safe products for mothers and babies everywhere, and for the chance to review the Green Salve.
*FCC guidelines: I did receive a sample of Green Salve to review. I was NOT paid for this review. It is a reflection of my independent experience.
