Our Story

"Necessity is the mother of invention" - Plato.

Skin Salvy owner
Lisa, owner
Skin Salvy® ("savvy") Emollient was developed out of desperation and for personal use in 2007. Lisa's husband developed deep, dry, painful cracks in the palms of his hands due to dermatitis in addition to dry patches behind other parts of his body. The dermatologist had recommended a well known cream that was reapplied hourly. At night he slathered the cream on his hands and wore gloves in an attempt to close the cracks. The cream eventually failed completely. One of the key ingredients was petrolatum - commonly used in many skin care products because it is plentiful and cheap. 

Lisa was a massage therapist at the time and knew of the many benefits organic jojoba provided when massaged on the skin. After experimenting with jojoba and beeswax we handcrafted an emollient that eliminated the cracks on her husbands palms. Although it is not a cure the dry patches on his hands are manageable. Another positive benefit: once he quit using the popular cream the dry patches behind his ears, elbows, and eyelids disappeared indicating a potential allergic reaction to the creams ingredients.
