Itch Mud - Poison Oak Potion
Regular price $14.00Californians know and respect the heinous potential of poison oak. What a powerful and tricky plant!
Chemical compounds called urushiols bring the burn in both poison oak and in poison ivy, which after contact, sink into your skin. Washing with soap and water (just water won’t do as the urushiols repel water) as soon as you come in contact with poison oak or ivy is key.
Be sure to take a jar with you on your adventures through the woods!
2 fl oz
Please use within 6 months of purchase. Store in a cool and dry place. FATM products are organic and freshly made skin food. They do not use toxins that make things last forever.
How to Use:
Itch Mud should be applied to the affected area right after it is washed. Leave on until it is dried and then rinse off. The Bentonite clay draws out impurities and oils from the skin and the baking soda and salt have a neutralizing effect which helps with the itch. The astringent properties of Witch Hazel extract tighten the skin and reduce swelling and itch. The essential oil of Peppermint cools the skin down and delivers that nice minty tingle to skin that feels like it’s on fire.

Additionally as the name states, it is especially chock-full of powerful anti-inflammatory herbs; some famous as the Turmeric/Black pepper combination, as well as less well known power-house herbs like the adaptogenic Wild Yam root (Dioscorea villosa), whose combination with Licorice is touted by master herbalist David Hoffman as some of the strongest anti-inflammatory herbs out there. That same combination of Wild Yam and Licorice are also noted for their anti-spasmodic properties, aiding women's menstrual cramps and menopausal symptoms.
The anti-inflammatory benefits are further enhanced by adding milk, cream, coconut oil, ghee or another favorite fat, which also tastes delicious in chai.
The stress hormone regulatory effects of the adaptogenic herbs (Eleuthero, Licorice, Wild Yam) have been clinically proven to help maintain relaxed vitality in the midst of stressful conditions, as well as normal conditions.
*a note on the trace caffeine content: this comes from the roasted oolong twigs in the formula. Grown at an elevation of 500 meters in the Nantou area mountains of Taiwan, this is some of the finest twig tea to be found in the world. Whereas leaf teas have about 60% of the caffeine content as coffee, twig teas have no more than 5 or 10%.

Cold Sore Killa
Regular price $15.00Viruses are hella tricky. Science considers viri as just kinda alive, like half made robot creatures that need our cells to exist. Viruses are truly unique beings, their own branch on the tree of life. As an herbalist, my relationship to plant medicine is like a marriage. Like any marriage, it comes with in-laws: pathogens and pain. Bru-tal.
Yet working to understand the in-laws, no matter how unsavory, is a path to understanding your life love.
Infections, like your mother in-law, have a lot to say. Listening gives insight into treatment, like choosing appropriate herbs or never, ever bringing up taking the plastic off the living room furniture.
Here is where I fall in love with plant medicine all over again.
Phytochemistry aka plant chemistry got its own ancient wisdom. Licorice and lemon balm put the smack down on viri getting a foothold in our precious cells. They’re like professional finger prayers when viri got a grip. Myrrh stimulates immune cell activity, empowering our own bod to kick out unwelcome guests.
Entering Cold Sore Killa, a tincture combining powers of all three plants. Drop a few drops on your ‘sore throughout the day.
Safe to ingest.

Bite & Burn Spray
Regular price $15.00If you’re looking to add an herbal dimension to your basic first aid kit, let me introduce the Bite & Burn Spray! Mild burns and insect bites can be given a quick spritz to aid in pain and faster recovery of your ow-ified skin. Witch hazel contains tannins which help the skin to tighten and therefore reduce swelling and pain and promote faster healing of broken skin. Witch hazel also acts as an antimicrobial, sending opportunistic bacteria on their way.
Fat and the Moon's yarrow hydrosol bring the first aid properties of the plant. Along with being astringent and antimicrobial, yarrow aids the skin in minimizing scarring and inflammation. Lavender and tea tree essential oil also act as antimicrobials as well as anti-inflammatories and antiseptics.
But let’s not focus on their ‘anti’ side too much, because all of the ingredients in the Bite & Burn Spray are way pro-healing.
Side note: for all burns, don’t apply any kind of ointment when you are first burned as it will trap in the ‘heat’ and your burn can get more serious. Give a good Bite & Burn spritz to the area and let dry, after a day you can apply ointment to mend your skin.
1 fl oz
- distilled water
- F&M's yarrow hydrosol
- witch hazel extract*
