B & W Burn and Wound Ointment - Amish-Made Salve (4, 8, or 16 Ounce)
- In stock, ready to ship
For over 25 years, B&W Ointment has built a reputation as the go-to Amish-made burn and wound salve found in farmhouses, kitchens, and first-aid drawers.
B&W Ointment is hand-mixed in small batches from a list of ingredients you can read out loud — and that quiet, plant-based simplicity is the whole point. Anyone who spends time in front of the stove has a story about the oven rack, the cast iron handle, or oil splatter that burned them, which is exactly why so many home cooks keep a tub of B&W in their first-aid drawer next to the bandages.
All-Natural, Plant-Based Formula
B&W gets its signature thick, buttery body from a base of honey and beeswax, which means the salve actually stays where you put it instead of sliding off the moment you move around.
Ingredients include: honey, lanolin, olive oil, wheat germ oil, beeswax, aloe vera gel, marshmallow root, comfrey root, white oak bark, lobelia, wormwood, myrrh, and a touch of vegetable glycerin.
What's even better??? No petroleum, no parabens, no synthetic fragrance, no dyes.
A Recipe with a Real Maker Behind It
The formula was developed in the 1990s by John Keim, an Amish herbalist in rural Ohio who set out to create a gentler way to care for burns at home. Decades later, the same recipe is still mixed by hand and passed quietly between Plain communities, midwives, and farm families across the country. It earned its reputation the slow way — by working effectively.
How to Use It
- Apply liberally to clean skin
- Cover with a non-stick dressing if needed
- If your tub firms up in a cool pantry, give it a quick stir with a clean spoon to bring it back to a creamy consistency
- For external use only — avoid eyes and mucous membranes, and see a doctor for serious burns or wounds
Good Company for Everyday Kitchen and Garden Mishaps
B&W is the tub people reach for when the kitchen bites back, when the garden leaves a mark, or when the sun got there first. Use it on minor burns, sunburns, scrapes, scuffs, bruises, dry hands, chapped lips, and the small day-to-day skin grievances that pile up. Your skin will thank you.
