Wild Indigo Balm DIY
Wild Indigo Balm
For dry, flaky, inflamed, irritated skin issues.
Stress is a funny thing, often times we don't realize how stressed we are until we break down maybe with an illness, anxiety or insomnia etc...
Mine is in three patches, my right elbow, mid left back and right three last meta tarsals.
They start as an itch, move into what looks like a bruise and if I don't take care of my stress I get a raised itchy, red, dry, flaky area.
This balm fixes it Externally as I work internally to self care.
