The Balm of Gilead is made by infusing olive oil with the resin of the cottonwood buds which contain salacin(natural aspirin). It soothes skin irritations such as eczema, cuts, rashes, burns, psoriasis, insect bites and stings, sunburn, athlete's foot, dry and scaly skin, chapped hands or cheeks, and prevents or heals diaper rash.

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-rheumatic nature, poplar salve helps to relieve the aches and pains of sore muscles, bruises, and arthritis.

It can be massaged into your chest or rubbed under your nose if suffering from a cold.
