infused oil balm concentrate
In a nod to our ancestors, this oil balm is a tribute to the way balms used to be made - and should still be made. We start with dynamic dried herbs, flowers and mushrooms, and steep them in our blend of warm organic oils for several days. This allows the plant properties to deeply infuse into the oils. Next, we melt down the wax of mimosa and jasmine flowers and infuse them into our luxurious oil. The result is an incredibly potent and soothing oil balm that smells absolutely divine.
The infused oil balm concentrate has been crafted to:
• intensely hydrate dry and dehydrated skin
• diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• heal and relieve irritation or redness
• support overall skin health promote a radiant glow

FAQs
There are a few differences! The bottles in the main collection are created using recycled glass in a machine, while the handblown bottles are created individually by one of our local artists. Additionally, the collection bottles are approximately half the size of the handblown bottles (with the exception of the Frogs Asking For a King balm), making them easier for everyday use and tighter spaces.
No, all of the products use the same size refill! If you have a handblown bottle, you can empty the entire contents of the refill into your vessel right away. If you have a collection bottle, empty about half of the refill into your vessel and then save the other half in a cool dark place until you are ready to use it.
When we say all of our products are double sized, we mean that we took the market average size for each type of product and simply doubled it. The average size for a face balm was 1.6oz, so we made ours 3.3oz. This means you can use the products for twice as long and repurchase half as often!
If your balm gets too warm and melts, simply place it in your refrigerator or a cool place until it resolidifies.
Despite being free from essential oils, this oil balm is infused with jasmine and mimosa floral wax which gives it a heavenly light floral scent.
No! The infused oil balm concentrate is highly moisturizing and should be used as the last step in your skincare routine.
We are proud that we do not use synthetic or unnecessary dyes at Scorpion and Toad. This balm is green due to the inclusion of hempseed oil, plantains, and mimosa floral wax.
Yes! Because oil breaks up oil on the skin, this is a suitable moisturizer for those with oily or acne prone skin.
