Drawing salves have been a staple of traditional folk medicine cabinets for centuries, valued for their ability to gently support the skin's natural ability to push out splinters, stings, and other foreign objects while soothing and protecting the surrounding tissue. Our Black Drawing Salve brings together nine carefully chosen natural and organic ingredients — each with its own traditional wellness heritage — into a single, richly textured formula that honors this long-standing tradition. From the natural drawing power of activated charcoal and bentonite clay to the soothing properties of calendula-infused apricot oil and locally sourced honey, every ingredient earns its place in this formula.

Ingredients

• Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera)
  A deeply moisturizing botanical traditionally valued for its skin-protective and emollient properties. Rich in naturally occurring lauric acid, Coconut Oil forms a nourishing protective base, supporting moisture retention and the skin's natural barrier function.
• Organic Calendula-Infused Apricot Oil (Calendula officinalis)
  Calendula — the beloved golden Pot Marigold — has been used in traditional European skin wellness for centuries, valued for its gentle soothing and skin-supportive properties. Rich in naturally occurring carotenoids, flavonoids, and fatty acids, it is slowly infused into lightweight Apricot Oil to deliver the full benefits of the flower directly to the skin with a calming, nourishing touch.
• Organic Shea Nut Butter (Vitellaria paradoxa)
  Cold-pressed from the nuts of the sacred African Shea tree, Shea Butter is rich in vitamins A and E and essential fatty acids, adding deep, lasting nourishment and a soothing protective layer to the formula.
• Organic Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao)
  A rich, naturally aromatic botanical fat traditionally prized for its deeply moisturizing properties and its ability to support soft, supple skin. Cocoa Butter adds luxurious texture and a naturally protective layer to this formula, helping seal in moisture and the active botanicals.
• Organic Beeswax (Cera alba)
  Used in skin preparations for thousands of years, Organic Beeswax gives this salve its firm, protective structure. It creates a natural, breathable barrier that holds the formula's nourishing botanicals against the skin for lasting support.
• Activated Charcoal
  The defining drawing ingredient of this formula. Activated charcoal's remarkable surface area gives it a powerful natural ability to attract and bind to substances on the skin's surface, drawing them outward. Traditionally used in natural skin care for its deeply cleansing and purifying properties, it is the ingredient most directly responsible for this salve's characteristic black color and classic drawing action.
• Bentonite Clay
  A natural volcanic mineral clay with a long history of traditional skin care use. Naturally rich in minerals including calcium, magnesium, and iron, Bentonite Clay gently absorbs moisture and impurities from the skin's surface while supporting a soothing, balanced skin environment — working in synergy with activated charcoal to enhance this formula's drawing and cleansing action.
• Organic Locally Sourced Honey
  One of nature's most ancient skin care ingredients, honey has been used topically in traditional wellness practice across cultures for thousands of years. Naturally rich in antioxidants and with well-documented humectant properties, it helps draw and retain moisture in the skin, soothing and protecting the tissue surrounding the area of application while the charcoal and clay do their work.
• Wild Oil of Oregano (Origanum vulgare)
  Wild-harvested and non-GMO, Oil of Oregano adds its naturally occurring carvacrol and thymol to this formula — plant compounds with a long traditional history of skin-supportive properties. As documented by Dr. Cass Ingram in The Cure is in the Cupboard, Oil of Oregano has one of the richest traditional profiles of any botanical in the natural wellness world.

How to Use

Directions: Apply a generous layer to the desired area of skin. Cover with a clean cloth or bandage, as this salve will stain fabrics. Leave in place and allow the formula to work. Reapply as needed. As a 100% natural product, consistency and aroma may naturally vary slightly between batches. Keep away from eyes and out of the reach of children.
