The 'life-changing' salve transforming vulvovaginal care

Everything you need to know about Momotaro Apotheca’s Multi-Use Salve

By Lindsay Wynn - Momotaro Apotheca Founder

Let’s be real, our bodies are complex, sensitive, and often in need of a little extra care. Whether it’s a frustrating yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis or irritated intimate skin that just won’t calm down, the search for something that actually works can feel never-ending. 

One Salve. Endless Relief. 

Designed for vulvovaginal inflammation and irritation, this salve doesn’t just stop there. Thanks to its nutrient-rich, plant-based formulation, it’s become a go-to skin savior everywhere. And when we say everywhere, we mean it: bikini line, elbows, sunburnt shoulders, eczema-prone patches, post-shave bumps, and more.

Why It Works: Thoughtfully Formulated To Address The Root Cause

Salve was created by founder Lindsay Wynn who suffered for years from chronic vulvovaginal infections and sensitivities. Made with your most delicate tissue in mind, this salve is incredibly gentle, but don’t let that fool you. It’s packed with powerhouse botanicals that nourish, repair, and protect. 

Here’s what’s inside:

• Calendula: Known for its anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, Calendula enhances circulation and supports connective tissue repair. It may also help with wound healing by stimulating collagen production and skin renewal.

• Jojoba Oil: A rich source of Vitamin E, Jojoba helps calm inflammation and accelerates skin cell turnover. It’s deeply hydrating without clogging pores—perfect for compromised skin.

• Echinacea: This isn’t just for colds. Echinacea protects collagen and supports long-term skin health, especially helpful for scarring, burns, or chronic irritation.

• Oregon Grape: A quiet hero with antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps soothe infections and promote healthy skin barrier function.

• Tea Tree Oil: A classic for a reason, tea tree offers itch relief and helps calm inflammation. If you’re battling that can’t-stop-won’t-stop scratchy feeling, this is your herbal BFF.
  

One Product, Countless Uses

Think of the salve as your skin’s multitasking first responder . Use it for:

• Yeast infections
• Bacterial vaginosis
• Chronic vulvovaginal irritation
• Burning or stinging sensations
• Post-shave irritation & ingrown hairs
• Eczema, dermatitis, or itchy patches
• After antibiotics or hormonal shifts

When customers describe it as “life-changing,” we don’t take that lightly. It’s a balm that feels immediately cooling and comfortable upon application while delivering clinically studied ingredients known for their ability to address the root cause.

When Should You Should Use Salve

• After a long day in the sun
• When your skin flares up post-shave
• Following a course of antibiotics
• During hormonal shifts (PMS, postpartum, birth control changes)
• When your skin just feels off and needs a reset
