Description

Willow – Arnica 50ml

Willow – Arnica 50 ml is a topical herbal product made with arnica extract, traditionally used to soothe tired muscles and support relief from minor bumps, stiffness, or muscle tension. Applied directly to the skin, it provides a comforting effect after physical activity or strain. It is intended for external use only and should not be used on broken skin.

Ingredients:

• Arnica montana flower extract/oil — the main herbal active ingredient known for its traditional soothing properties.

• Carrier oils (e.g., sweet almond oil, olive oil, or jojoba oil) — used to dilute the arnica extract and help it spread smoothly on skin.

• Beeswax or plant waxes — to give the product its texture and help it stay on the skin.

• Essential oils (e.g., lavender oil, eucalyptus oil) — for natural fragrance and additional soothing benefits (varies by product).

• Vitamin E or other natural antioxidants — sometimes added to support skin nourishment and preserve the formulation.

Benefits:
