Tar Balm. Traditional Finnish Pine Tar Cream, 100% natural, vegan

Saaren Taika Tar Balm – Traditional Finnish Pine Tar Cream

Saaren Taika Tar Balm contains authentic Finnish pine tar, traditionally crafted in underground kilns. This versatile balm can be applied to the face, lips, body, hands, and feet.

For over 2,000 years, tar has been used in medicine for various skin concerns due to its soothing and antiseptic properties. Studies have shown that pine tar has anti-itch (antipruritic), anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Because of these benefits, pine tar is particularly well-suited for eczema, psoriasis, seborrheic skin, and other dry, itchy, or flaky skin conditions.

Authentic Finnish Pine Tar

The tar used in this balm is genuine Finnish pine tar, crafted using traditional underground kilns. Historically, pine tar has played a significant role in Finnish folk medicine and was once used for almost all wound care—even in amputations.

Saaren Taika Tar Balm has a natural tar scent, with no added fragrances.

Easily Absorbed & Nourishing Formula

This tar ointment is soft, spreads easily, and absorbs quickly into the skin.

Organic Ingredients for Skin Well-being

In addition to pine tar, Saaren Taika Tar Balm contains almond oil and shea butter, both known for their exceptional skin-nourishing properties.

• Almond Oil – Regular use helps the skin feel more youthful. Rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, almond oil supports skin elasticity and helps combat signs of aging.
• Shea Butter – An excellent ingredient for dry and irritated skin, shea butter maintains the skin’s natural moisture balance and helps restore its protective barrier. This makes it particularly beneficial during cold, dry winter months.
  • Anti-aging benefits: Shea butter contains triterpenes, which prevent collagen breakdown and help maintain skin elasticity. This can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving the skin smoother and more youthful.
  • Soothing properties: Rich in plant esters, shea butter has natural anti-inflammatory effects that can help calm sensitive and irritated skin.
