What better way to get a massage than handing your pal a tin of Sore Muscle Salve accompanied by a pained and strained expression?

Fat and the Moon’s Sore Muscle Salve employs the medicinal properties of tobacco which, when used topically, help relax muscles and nerves. Tobacco infused oil is great for relieving muscle cramps and spasms. Cayenne brings the heat, making muscles more pliable and easing aches.

The earthy smell of tobacco is nicely complemented with the grassy aroma of vetiver essential oil. Clove essential oil adds even more warmth to the salve..

Ingredients: tobacco*, st john's wort*, cayenne infused sunflower oil*, beeswax, clove & vetiver essential oil*

2 fl oz

And if you were wondering why 'Fat and the Moon'....
Fat as the first word in the name of my business has gotten me in some interesting discussions. People ask me about the name all the time because they can hardly believe I would use a word that has such negative connotations,­ especially when it is used within ‘beauty care’.

In part, I use the word ‘fat’ to be provocative; I don’t believe fat is a dirty word. But most of the fat in Fat and the Moon comes from my love of the material- oil is the medium of external herbal medicine. Fat in the form of oil, is the gift of the seed. Fat, both in plants and animals, is where energy is stored. The richness we taste in food, and the suppleness we feel on our skin after a good slather of bath oil, is our bodies recognition of and pleasure in that vital energy. Oil from plants, in and of itself, is medicinal. I feel honored as a medicine maker to indulge in the play of fat and herbs, especially under the influence of the moon.
