What’s in it

  • Cottonwood bud infusion (Populus deltoides) Pojoaque River, NM
  • Sweet almond oil
  • Jojoba oil
  • Trace vitamin E

Why this one

Cottonwood (Populus deltoides) buds release a sticky golden resin in early spring, what people sometimes call 'balm of Gilead.' I collect from trees along the Pojoaque River and infuse them into sweet almond oil for six weeks. The result is a green-gold body oil that's good for tight muscles and dry skin.
