From the Naturalis Herbal journal archive. Updated for this site in November 2026. Current ingredients, prices, stock, and ordering options are listed in the Naturalis Herbal shop.
Back Yard BooBoo is part of the Naturalis Herbal salve collection. Like any skin product, the most useful starting point is the actual ingredient label and directions on the jar you have.
What to look for
Oil and beeswax blends can help soften dry skin and reduce moisture loss. Infused botanicals contribute to a formulation’s character, but their presence does not prove that the finished salve prevents infection or heals wounds.
Recipes and availability can change. Check the current shop listing for the full ingredient list, sizes, and directions.
A note about comfrey
If your product contains comfrey, do not take it by mouth or apply it to broken skin. Ask a qualified healthcare professional about its suitability and duration of use. The old idea that a comfrey salve belongs on every scrape should not guide its use.
Patch test on intact skin and stop if irritation occurs. A salve is not a replacement for proper first aid or medical care for burns, deep cuts, infection, or a persistent rash.
I want these products to come with understandable information and realistic expectations.
