The Super Salve Company was created by Denise Tracy Cowan in 1990 after her late husband, Randy Fabres
(a Grand Canyon river guide), asked her to formulate a salve that would
prevent and heal foot fungus, which debilitated a large portion of the
crew and passengers on extended Grand Canyon river trips. The results were amazing and
the acceptance was universal. Denise could not keep this incredible salve in
stock.
Hence, The Super Salve Company was born!
Over the
years, Denise has received thousands of letters from fans, praising the
properties and purity of her products. She only uses responsible sources of
organically farmed herbs, oils, essential oils, butters and waxes. The
Super Salve Company’s goal is to produce the highest quality products
with the finest ingredients at a reasonable price, using only
recyclable, earth-friendly packaging.
The
Super Salve Company products are manufactured, packaged, and shipped
directly from her factory (located near the ghost town of Mogollon, New
Mexico) enabling the highest degree of quality control and quick
response to orders from her customers.
When my package arrived from the Super Salve Co., I was so excited, I tore right into it! I was sore and had a headache from cleaning and yard work the previous days, and was interested to see how well they worked when I needed it most. I was sent The Super Pack. It contains one of each of their salves in a large, fancy tin!
Salves include: Calendula Salve, Sun Salve, Arnica Salve, and the infamous Super Salve. All of which I was delighted to try!
Arnica cordifolia ~
common name “Leopard’s Bane." This salve works fast and effectively on
muscle aches, joints and tension. It also helps heal sprains, bruising
and swelling. Rubbed on temples and back of neck for headaches, this
salve will stimulate circulation and healing.
• excellent for body builders
• not recommended for use during pregnancy or on open wounds
• external use only
• keep away from children
CONTAINS: Olive
oil; organic arnica flowers; sweet almond oil; beeswax, cocoa butter;
African shea butter; vitamin E oil; and pure essential oils of
wintergreen, camphor, ginger, clove, cayenne, and a variety of mints and
sages.
My Experience: This was the first of the salves I tried. I rubbed it on my shoulders, wrists, temples, and the nape of my neck. I love the way it creates a pleasant, warming sensation followed by a gentle cooling tingle. It helped me finish my daily tasks without being bothered by those annoying aches and pains I was feeling prior to the salve. I applied it once again before bed, and was able to rest comfortably. It is now something I put on my temples before yoga and meditation to help soothe my mind and get rid of those annoying headaches.
(Calendula officinale, common name “Marigold”) In
ancient times, Calendula was used for beautifying purposes and
especially for toning the skin. Today, cosmetic experts praise calendula
for its rejuvenating and healing effects on injured and damaged skin.

My Experience: This salve was perfect for my dry, painful sunburn. I do love aloe for sunburns, but this salve has spoiled me. It contains so many awesome ingredients that soften the skin while soothing burns or itchy skin. I have sensitive skin and always worry about what I put on it, especially my face. This salve leaves me worry free! I now put it on before going outside as well as after showering to prevent my skin from drying out and getting flaky.
