I have been using this cream for several years when I first found it in Orcas Is.. For me works to soothe and treat my skin and treat small ra
shes when I need it ftom time to time.
Just like the title says! Soothing !
This is my favorite. The scent is amazing and not too strong, Being Seventy six years old I feel pampered when I use it
This is my second time buying this salve. Island Thyme has the best lavender. The smell is otherwordly. My skin loves beeswax and shea butter. A little goes a long way. This is a perfect product.
Love the feeling on my legs when I use the salve.
This smells so delicious and feels even better. It moisturizes so well leaving your skin feeling wonderful! I love it!
I recently had a knee replacement surgery and I used this salve to heal the incision. My surgeon stated the incision looked fantastic at my 6 wk visit. I think it helped tremendously with healing
Winter is tough on my skin and this salve is the only product that helps with the itch. Absolutely fantastic!
I use this product on my hands, forearms, feet and legs. After testing it on my face, NowI ALWAYS use it as a night face treatment for my chronic dry skin on my face. Doing this has made a huge difference in moisturizing my face. Never want to be without it.
I have some skin issues from using my cpap mask and this is definitely calming the irritation!
I have very dry skin and am prone to eczema. The day after this arrived, I had a patch on my calf and an outbreak threatening on my palms. It did not take much of this salve to keep it all at bay. Using it prophylactically for a few days now. There's very little, short of a prescription, that can do what it's doing. So glad to have it.
I keep all 2oz size products in my carry on suitcase. This way I don't have to repack and always have a product that works well on my skin and hair while travelling.
I love the Island Thyme salve. It helped clear up the eczema on my chest and neck. I use it every day!
I’m finding this salve helpful with the skin on my thumbs that tends to get dry and cracked, more so in the fall and winter months. I love the gentle lavender scent.
This salve is my 'go to' for dry overworked skin. The fragrance is perfect!
I’ve tried many salves. Lots of lavender ones, too. Lavender is my favorite and I’ve been looking for the perfect one. And so many fall short: smell too light or fake, not hydrating, greasy….etc. This one is the ABSOLUTE BEST I’ve ever used. Creamy & hydrating. And it smells magical. My new go~to. FOREVER.
This has been my favorite facial cream for over 30!years!!!!!
Love this salve and everything I've ever tried from Island Thyme. Super hydrating and healing. Smells great too.
We already use your healing salve but it's always nice to change them up even though they're working. Works well in our dry So Cal climate.
It works! Not too oily.
This is the best salve. Az gets so dry as it cools down. I use it for my cuticles and any dry spots. Thumbs up on this one. The scent is soft and very pleasant.
This is an amazing salve. I've been using it for my dry cuticles and rough spots on my heels. A wonder!
Washing my hands constantly make them dry and the salve softens my hands and elbows.
I love this salve. I get rashes from most hand creams but not Island Thyme’s. I bought an extra pot of it for my office. I highly recommend this for dry winter hands and feet!
About 20 years ago, while vacationing on Orcas Island,I bought some of your Soothing Skin Salve. When I got home, I put it away in a drawer and forgot about it. A few years later, I had a serious diabetic foot ulcer caused by a callus separating from the foot. I almost lost my leg, After two years of intensive treatments, it finally healed. The podiatrist said if I got any more cracks or calluses, he didn't think it would heal next time. He said I have to keep the skin on my feet soft and smooth. I remembered the Island Thyme salve I had bought, and I began to use it. It worked great! It has been 7 years now, and I have used Island Thyme salve on my feet daily. I have not had another callus, crack, or rough skin like I used to. I am walking up to a mile at a time. My podiatrist says the skin on my feet is perfect (or as perfect as an elderly diabetic could get). I showed him the jar, and he approved my use of it, saying there is nothing in there that could harm my foot, and it is really keeping it soft and smooth like we want. Also, the doctor's assistant, who removes my shoes and socks before my exam, said "I see a lot of feet, and yours are the first feet that I can say actually smell good." Thanks, Island Thyme!
This is always on my desk! It's perfect for after I wash my hands, and it's not greasy! Love the smell also.
Aw yay! Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review Peggy!
The smell does almost as much for my soul as the salve does for my skin.
Hey Sharon, we're so glad to hear this! Thanks for sharing :)
I have dry skin and eczema. Is used this on a dry patch and it immediately started healing my skin. Not greasy at all. Would highly recommend.
Thanks so much for your kind review Jeanne!
My son has a fruit allergy and dry skin. This is the only fruit free salve I've been able to find and it's also nice smelling, and works really well on his dry skin.
Hey Paul, thanks for letting us know how well our Soothing Skin Salve works for your son!
I bought this for my feet as I walk everywhere and my feet take a beating. It has softened the skin and returned my feet to normal. Love this product.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us Ann! We're happy to hear that your feet feel rejuvenated :)
I love it so much that I've given it to most of my friends! This is my go to balm for nighttime for my feet or my hands after cleaning or working in the yard. And the smell is heavenly. Nice job!
I love everything I ordered. Salve is awesome on dry winter skin, very soothing.,
Our Process
Nature's best
We start with the highest quality flowers, herbs, and medicinals. Some, like calendula, lavender, and cucumber, come from the Island Thyme farm. Others, like St. John's Wort, are wildcrafted in Montana's Bitterroot Mountains. Others are sourced from around the world.
Time-tested recipes
All of our recipes have been developed in-house over the past 25+ years. Starting from skin-nourishing base ingredients like sweet almond oil and beeswax, we fine-tune the scent and texture.
Small batches
No industrial manufacturing here! In our commercial kitchen in the village of Eastsound on Orcas Island, our crew meticulously crafts each product in small batches for freshness and quality control.
Delivered to you
After labeling, products are ready for you, our amazingly loyal customers. Our shipping team boxes up online orders, stocks our two storefronts in Eastsound and Friday Harbor, and prepares shipments to our wholesale outlets, which include natural food stores and gift shops throughout the Pacific Northwest
