I made this product to help my mother recover and heal her scars from lap band surgery as well as for my sister who was pregnant at the time, this healing cream is also perfect for healing tattoos and dry, cracked skin associated with climbing(this is how i originally used it). Cocoa, shea, and aloe butter are blended with seven essential oils (peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, frankincense, lavender, sweet lemon, sweet orange) make this both moisturizing and antimicrobial. Rose hydrosol is the base which helps reduce free radicals as well is a natural antioxidant.
