Snowfire Ointment Stick, 9 Nov. 2011

I was first given Snowfire by my mother about sixty years ago for chilblains on my hands and it was the only thing that worked. Today I suffer with recurring painful cracks to the side of my thumb nails and Snowfire is just the right consistency for for soothing and healing these. It also has a faint, old fashioned odour that somehow reassures and I carry a stick of it with me whenever I go out. It's made of rigid plastic, measures 7cm by 3cm with a screw-on cap and fits handily in the pocket or bag. It lasts me for ages (though the label wears off after a while) and I'm always glad that it's still around when I need another.

Snowfire Healing Tablet, 13 Nov. 2009

Since year dot my grandmother applied this solid healing ointment, which works miracles on chapped, broken or rough skin. My medicine cabinet has never been without it and it is invaluable after gardening, DIY jobs etc, when fingers crack or refuse to heal. A friend with acute cracked elbows for years has successfully healed up after using this every night for 6 weeks. It also works wonders on cracked skin around heels in the summer.Smelling old-fashioned and herby; green in colour, works best if you can warm it a little before application and best applied at bedtime. Invaluable!
