It’s the perfect for wind protection. I run it on the kids cheeks and lips before going out to play in the winter. I’d like to make it in a big chapstick size!

You could try it for that purpose. It is not a lotion consistency, though. It is very protective and would be good for someone who goes outside in cold, dry weather.

Absolutely, herbal infused oils make the best salves!

Elder flower is nice, rose petals or plantain leaf

I enjoy wildcrafting. I have made cottennwood salve, mixed herb healing salve, devils club salve and calendula salve. My infused evergreen oil is waiting for me. I have recently harvested some devils club root to infuse. I really enjoy learning about herb and their uses.
