Dandy Dandelion Salve
$8.99
Our Dandy dandelion salve is a mix of old and new, pairing the tried-and-true natural healing power of tea dandelions, tea tree oil, rosemary, and lavender with deep moisturizing butters and oils.
Dandy absorbs quickly and leaves behind no greasy film or residue — perfect for hard working hands or dry, cracked hands during the winter.
We use just the right amount of beeswax to lock in the healing, moisturizing relief Dandy provides and to provide a protective barrier against the elements.
We don’t use any artificial ingredients, parabens, or petrolatums in Dandy. Since we make it in small batches, we don’t have to load Dandy up with artificial preservatives.
Dandy is effective for use on hands, feet, and everywhere else. A little bit also goes a long way; a single jar of Dandy lasts some customers for three months or longer!
Dandy dandelion salve ingredients: Shea butter, coconut oil, rice bran oil, beeswax, cocoa butter, jojoba oil, tea tree oil, peppermint oil, lavender oil, rosemary oil, and Taraxacum officinale (dandelions).
Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) is a perennial herb that grows throughout the world and has a very long history of medicinal usage, with its anti-inflammatory nature making it a great choice for topical creams and salves.
Dandelion leaves and roots are used in teas and herbal coffees while leaves and flowers are often included in salves and other topical treatments.
Dandelions contain several different pharmacologically active compounds, including high levels of flavonoids, glycosides, and inulin.
How We Make Our Dandelion Salve
We wild harvest dandelions that grow on the farm and solar infuse them in rice bran oil. This draws out the various herbal components without using alcohol or harsh chemical extraction processes.
We blend that infused oil with shea butter, coconut oil, cocoa butter, and beeswax to create the base for our dandelion salve and then add jojoba oil — a skin-friendly oil used in many high end cosmetics.
We then add essential oils such as tea tree oil, peppermint oil, lavender oil, and rosemary oil that all have a very long history of use for skin care.
We hand-whip each batch of Dandy before adding it to jars to give it a lighter consistency than many other salves and creams, making it smooth and easy to apply.
We don’t dilute Dandy down by adding water or aloe vera gel or other “fillers” and preservatives that creates more volume of product to sell but reduces the potency of the natural ingredients.
How To Use Dandy Hand Salve
We originally made our Dandy dandelion salve as a natural remedy for dry, cracked hands but customers use it in a variety of ways.
Dandy can be used on hands and feet as a night time moisturizer as well as a hand salve after gardening work.
We don’t market it as a treatment or cure for eczema or psoriasis but some customers have had great success, especially in spot treatment of eczema flare ups throughout the body.

Jill Thomas –
I use this every night on my hands and feet and can really tell a difference. It is a little slick when you first put it on but it absorbs very quickly and doesn’t smell as strong or as mediciney as other products I’ve tried.
Chris (verified owner) –
I have had psoriasis all my life. I have done all the doctors treatments over the years and not one gave me results.
My massage lady gave a small tin of Dandelion salve and it worked well. I bought some from two different companies and began experimenting. I used one on the right half and the other on the left side of my body. Neither one absorbed wel though they were working. I decided to heat some of each up and apply as a warm oil and that’s when I got the best results from the Shaffer Springs Dandelion product. The other one worked but not as well and the Shaffer Springs product smells better, which matters when using a fair amount.
If you have psoriasis buy a few 2 oz Containers of Dandelion salve and enjoy the results.
Thank you to the Safer Farms people I am living more comfortably because of you and your products.
