Named after the Icelandic moors by the wise old woman whose herbal expertise brings us this amazing 100% natural and organic balm, Moa is considered by some to be a miracle in a jar. It’s healing properties are highly thought of by many, including mountaineer and adventurer Jake Meyer who keeps it in his first aid kit.

Here are some of the uses of the green balm:

• prevents and treats frostbite
• helpful with skin conditions such as dry patches, rashes and burns
• helpful with the after-care of burns and scarring to promote healing, reduce itching, nourish and soften
• may help to soothe eczema and mild cases of psoriasis
• protects chapped and cracked skin on elbows, knees hands and feet
• use as a facial cleanser to remove make-up, whilst conditioning the eyelashes and balancing the skin
• softens cuticles
• revives dull looking hair; comb through to condition and restore lustre and vitality to tired looking locks
• helps to prevent nappy rash and soothe cradle-cap
• warm between the fingertips to use as a massage oil
• mix a teaspoon of móa with hot water and a little honey and gargle to ease a sore throat

The key ingredient in the balm is organic yarrow, which is combined with tea tree oil, Icelandic water, beeswax, coconut, sweet almond and soya bean oils to make up Moa - the green balm.
