Our Goal & Promise

Our goal is to give you a product that has retained all the nutrients and vitamins of natures organic herbs and oils.  Our Salves and Ageless Skin oil is made with an unsurpassed care and respect for you and for nature.  

Our promise to you is that MelRu products are handmade with organic herbs and oils; free of damaging chemicals and mechanical processing.  We would like to share with you a quality and beneficial product that you can wear proudly.

MelRu Skin Salves were tested by:

ANRESCO  - analysis research consulting in San Francisco, CA on August 14, 1998 and was found to be a well emulsified and stable product.

Throughout time essential and pure oils have been treasured and revered for their abilities to soothe, heal, anoint and bless.  In our modern world we have forgotten the healing power of pure oils and herbs.

Our Salves and Ageless Skin Oil reminds us that nature cannot be mimicked by chemicals and high-tech machinery, only by the precision blending of pure oils and herbs can we once again rejuvenate, balance, soothe and nourish skin in a natural, wholesome way.

Our skin products are handmade with care, they are not mass produced nor processed through mechanical methods that destroy the very properties needed to nourish the skin.  Instead our Lavender Salve, Gotu Kola Salve and Ageless Skin Oil is created in the gentle, caring manner that truly makes a product excellent.

The tiny MelRu that you will find on our products, stand for Melody and Ruth.

Our skin products were created in 1992 by Melody and lovingly encouraged, inspired and supported by Melody’s mother, Ruth.  Melody is the maker of these nourishing skin products and Ruth is the wind beneath Melody’s wings and so the product should read RuMel however, MelRu flowed a little better and as fate sometimes has it Melody soars and Ruth is her wind.
