DESCRIPTION
CB Cream with Calendula is a gentle topical botanical formulation containing Calendula, Acorus calamus (Calamus), Viscum album (Mistletoe), Apis mellifica (Bee venom) and Swedish Bitters. These ingredients have a long history of traditional use in botanical and complementary health practices for supporting skin comfort, circulation and wellbeing in cold, damp conditions.

• Supports local circulation:
The carefully selected botanical ingredients are traditionally associated with supporting local circulation and providing warmth to areas exposed to cold or damp conditions.

• Soothes irritated & sensitive skin:
Formulated to soothe irritated and sensitive skin, offering comfort during periods when minor skin discomfort occurs.

• Ideal for seasonal winter comfort:
CB Cream provides a convenient topical method of incorporating traditional botanical ingredients into a daily skin-care routine, especially during winter or following temperature changes.

Applied directly to affected areas, CB Cream provides targeted topical support for cold-weather skin sensitivity.

WHAT ARE CHILBLAINS?
Chilblains, also known as pernio, are a common skin response that can occur when small blood vessels in the skin overreact to cold, damp conditions. They most commonly affect the fingers, toes, ears, nose and cheeks.

Chilblains may be associated with:

Keeping affected areas comfortably warm and avoiding sudden temperature changes can form part of a general self-care routine.
