Organic Perineal Balm
Organic Perineal Balm is a soothing balm made to support postpartum recovery, particularly in the days after birth when comfort matters most. It features an herbal blend of organic witch hazel and other organic botanicals, and it is formulated for pregnancy and postpartum perineal care while being suitable for general use by others as well.
The balm is made with certified organic herbs, including olive fruit oil, shea butter, beeswax, jojoba seed oil, lavender, peppermint, witch hazel, St. John's Wort, calendula, and yarrow extracts. It is free from petroleum, artificial fragrance, and artificial preservatives, and it has been dermatologist tested for irritation. It carries organic certification from Oregon Tilth, is Leaping Bunny certified, and is Plastic Neutral certified.
The maker recommends applying it two to three times a day, and storing it in the fridge for extra cooling. It can be used on its own or alongside a peri bottle or sitz bath as part of a postpartum care routine.
