Boosting this post because it's still amazing and y'all should know about it
The Pain,Pain Go Away Salve from The Spork Witch just arrived!
I will absolutely be replenishing this when I run out. This stuff has really impressed me, and let me tell you why so you can head over there.
When you first open the tin, there's a light scent. No dramatic wofting of perfume that you would swear needs a cartoon pink cloud as backup. No no. It's like if you wandered into the grove of Chiron himself in Ancient Greece. A comforting yet mild blend of medical herbs, light citrus, and a hint of woods. The smell quickly dissipated after being rubbed in, which is perfect for those sensitive to scents.
But of course that's not all.
I've used the butter version before and it was lovely, but I can say that the salve works faster. It's not overly waxy (which is a textural concern of mine) so there's no sticky residue at all. Very slight sensation of warmth, but not like a tiger balm tingly warmth. This is a very natural warmth. I used it on a knee that had been recently dislocated and had stayed very upset. While the wise thing to do is still wear my knee brace, the pain salve significantly reduced the pain to where I'm comfortable and able to focus on work.

Just to note, this is in no way a sponsored post. Just an honest review on a product that works for me. 🦓🖤
