The lemon-scented herb Melissa, Lemon Balm, has traditionally been used for a variety of purposes. As a tea it is a nourishing tasty tonic to relieve stress and ease anxiety. Topically, Lemon Balm is known to kill viruses, and is useful against cold sores.
Vineyard Herbs makes a luscious and convenient ointment with fresh lemon balm extract that is moisturizing and wonderful as a lip balm. It soothes sunburn and deserves a place in the medicine cabinet. Vineyard Herbs salves won Third Place at the 2009 International Herb Symposium in Wheaton College.
This smooth, citrusy salve contains: hand-harvested Lemon Balm extracted in olive oil, canola oil, and unbleached beeswax, with lemon essential oil. None of our salves contain any fillers, preservatives, petroleum or artificial fragrances. Pure, simple, natural. Makes a wonderful gift.
