Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


In the winter the skin at the corners of my nails begin to split. It is a very painful condition. The other night I had one that hurt so bad I could not touch anything with my finger without wincing. It hurt even if I didn't touch anything.

I remembered my Rose Ointment and put some on the split. Within 60 seconds the nagging pain was gone. I kept applying it to the split every hour and just before bed rubbed all of my fingertips. The next morning the pain was greatly reduced and by the next day, I forgot about it.

I took my ointment to work to use during the day and of course people would ask about the scent so I used that opening to tell them about the pain relief. One of my co-workers has dry, painful, itchy areas. She was scratching a spot and I asked her if she would like to use the Rose Ointment on it. She did and the itching and pain went away immediately.

My granddaughter had some dry, itchy, patches of skin on her neck. She rubbed Rose Ointment on the spot and soon it was feeling better. The next morning she said that the spot was relieved and felt softer than the area she did not apply the ointment to.

I am so grateful for these products!
