Ingredients: organic sweet almond (Prunus amygdalus var. dulcis) and/or grapeseed oils (Vitis vinifera), organic coconut oil (cocos nucifera), organic beeswax (cera flava from the honeybee apis mellifera), non-gmo vitamin e (tocopherol from vegetable fats), organic essential oils of bergamot, lime and tea tree.
What it does not contain: Anything artificial, ever.
Directions for use: to heal & protect minor scrapes and cuts on your knuckles and hands, gently massage salve into skin as often as needed until area is healed. Cover with a bandaid for extra oomph.
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE SUMMER: During warmer months, your Dings & Dents Mechanics Salve may melt and separate a little. This is totally okay, and the salve is still in perfect working shape, it’s just that the touch of beeswax that gives it it’s consistency does sometimes give in to heat. In addition, it is highly likely that, after sitting in a hot delivery truck all day, it will reach you in this melty state. If you want to reset and firm it, just give it a good stir and leave it (closed tightly) in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours. That should bring it back to its solid state.
Anticipated shelf life: up to 1 year from date of purchase.
For best results, store in a cool, dry location out of direct sunlight.

My husband loves this product. He has been an athlete most of his life and been in the sun almost daily playing tennis or working outside in our yard. He said this is the best hand salve he has ever used.

My hands are beat up! I use my hands for serious dirty wet work every day, and then I garden for fun. I have often suffered from cracked fingertips that are sooo painful. I now keep this by the bed and use it every night. I cannot live without it. Thank you! Highly recommend.

Used on a long-simmering wound/scar for the tail-end of healing process, but still use it esp during winter to get my hands to bounce back from working on my property during winter (ie: dry, chapped, beat-up hands) in the unforgiving TX hill country – amazing how much 1-3 applications will get you there!

I live near Chicago and every winter my skin gets dry. I use this on my hands and elbows and it makes all the difference in the world.

My sweetheart got this for me a while back . . . something I’d not likely buy, and ignored for a while. But tried it last week after working on my car, banging my hands up a bit replacing starter. Well, pretty good stuff. One of those things you don’t appreciate until you got it.
