Can I use this on my face or on sensitive, broken skin?

This cosmetic birch balm is intended for use on the body, not the face. The skin on the face is generally more sensitive, and the strong, active nature of birch tar is not suitable for that area. You should also avoid applying it to broken, wounded, or damaged skin unless the product's specific instructions indicate it is safe to do so. The product notes it may suit adults looking for a traditional skin helper for specific body areas, but it requires extra caution if your skin is very sensitive or reactive. The most important step before any wider use is to perform a patch test: apply a tiny amount to a small, discreet area of skin (like the inner forearm) and wait 24-48 hours to check for any adverse reaction, such as redness, burning, or increased irritation.
