About Us

Who are Ihan Pihkassa?

Behind this firm there is two women, a mother and a daughter, Hanna and Jenni. Through Hanna's studies in the field of natural products, we got acquainted and fell in love with Resin Balms. Inspired by this we decided to start our own company - we need to tell others about this amazing product! Now for a little more than a year we have introduced resin salves to many, many people and to our joy, many have found a help from our Resin Balm to even some very persistent problems, for example to cracked heels, eczema or something else. Receiving feedback from customers who found help from our resin salve warms our heart very much.

During our journey, we have develop new products from which we might mention our popular lip balms: Stunning Sea buckthorn and Happy Honey lips. We came up with these names on a road trip when we were wondering how to name such lovely lip balms. That was mother-daughter quality time at it's finest!

Pihka on puun oma haavaside

Tahmeaa ja tarttuu sitkeästi. Tällä tavoin varmasti moni kuvailee pihkaa. Ja onhan sitä vaikea saada pois sormista tai vaatteista. Sen tietää jokainen, joka on joskus nojannut kuuseen (tai mäntyyn) tai kantanut halkoja. Harvemmin tulee kuitenkin ajatelleeksi, miksi pihkaa ylipäätään on olemassa. Kuusi ei tee pihkaa huvin vuoksi tai meitä ihmisiä varten, vaan itseänsä varten. Kun…

Essential oils in natural cosmetics

Scents can, in a single whiff, transport you to a specific memory or evoke something entirely new. Creating a vivid image, a scent blurs the boundaries of time and place, and suddenly, you find yourself in a different setting. Imagine the warm and soothing scent of lavender – you can envision yourself strolling through the lavender fields of Provence, feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin, and the air filled with the intoxicating aroma of lavender...
