What is this ointment used for and how should it be applied?

This is a warming ointment based on goose fat and beeswax – without essential oils or synthetic additives. It is chosen for rubbing the chest and feet in the cold and flu season, and also as a protective product for skin exposed to cold, wind or frost.

According to the label, the ointment is applied to the chest and feet 3 times a day with light massaging movements; it can also be applied to protect the skin from the cold, for example after a walk in the frost.

The beeswax in the composition creates a protective film on the surface of the skin, so the ointment also suits as a barrier product before going outside in damp or frosty weather – especially for areas that are hard to protect with clothing.

Before the first use, apply a small amount of ointment to a limited area of skin and wait a few hours to make sure there is no unwanted reaction. The ointment should not be applied to damaged, irritated or inflamed skin.
