And there’s a story behind this cream and the name Malta. Malta belonged to the four-legged group of earth beings, more specifically of the bovine group. She was a well-loved school cow. Malta lived permanently on a school farm in Santa Rosa California where a multitude of children, a dedicated farmer and an entire community of people cared for her. One day she got caught on a barbed wire fence and tore her flesh. The wound wouldn’t heal. The worried farmer called the vet who cleaned the wound and administered ointments but it just did not get better.

As members of the community and dedicated fans of Malta, we volunteered to create an ointment in the hopes of speeding her recovery and relieving her suffering. We created a cream made from clay to draw out the problem; aloe to sooth the area and herbal oils to stimulate tissue improvement. The wound got better and the area was left as good as new. Malta has since made the journey to the greenest pasture in the sky after a long life with exceptionally good skin but her legacy remains in this cream named after her.

Since its creation and success, many people, and animals, have enjoyed Malta’s cream and its soothing effects. Add a little Malta’s Cream where ever relief is needed on heat burns, sunburn, skin rashes and irritations, blemishes, insect bites, animal scratches, poison ivy and poison oak, sore muscles, overworked hands and dry skin.

Keep a Jar of Malta’s cream in the first aid box, the glove box and the kitchen drawer for all life’s traumas, at least the ones that are only skin deep.

Malta's Cream comes in three sizes; 1 oz, 2 oz and 4 oz.
