-Can I use Perrin's Blend on large areas?
Perrin's Blend is a honey based ointment, making it a sticky paste so it is not easily spread over large areas, but a person can do so if he/she is determined to do so.  It is also burgundy in color due to the grape seed extract which means can permanently stain clothes, bed linens, etc. so we recommend covering the area with a bandage if staining a fabric is a concern to you. .
 
-Do I have to keep it covered?
As mentioned above, Perrin's Blend is a sticky honey based ointment and burgundy in color due to the grape seed extract which means it will stain clothes.  Even though we have seen positive results with sporadic application, the best results come when the lesion is in constant contact the Perrin's Blend.  That also means leaving the bandage on during a bath, then not washing it off before reapplying.  Most of the time the lesion needs to be covered to prevent the Perrin's Blend from being rubbed off.  If the place is on your face (where there is less of a chance of the ointment being rubbed off) and you doesn't mind the appearance of the ointment then there may not be as much of a reason to keep the area covered, and a person can keep reapplying during the day.
 
-Why is Perrin's Blend so thick?
Perrin's Blend is a high concentration of antioxidants in a base of raw honey, and honey thickens naturally.  We could add more honey which would help with the thickness but that would weaken the formula, so we have chosen not to do this.  The ointment seems to work better when it is so thick it actually has to be pressed onto the area being treated.  Once it makes contact on the skin your body will start to slightly melt the honey, making it softer.  A thicker product runs less, which helps it to stay in place until a bandage can be placed over the area.  If the thickness poses a real problem to you then you can thin the product with pure honey.  Some people choose to do this.
 
-What should I use to apply Perrin’s Blend?
First, never use a cotton-tipped applicator.  Cotton fibers will stick to the ointment.  If you prefer not to use your finger, choose a firm applicator -- a wooden paddle or spoon handle is fine).  If Perrin’s Blend tends to stick to the applicator you may want to slightly oil the applicator before applying.
 
-Can I get my money back if Perrin's Blend doesn't work?
We don't make claims that Perrin's Blend works for everyone, even though we have see more positive results than we ever imagined.  We relay the testimonies given to us by those who have had success with our products to our customers and those interested in using our products.  Occasionally we do have a person return the product, but this is very rare.  If you are highly dissatisfied with the product return the product to us and we will give you a refund.  We have so few complaints and returns that we haven't developed a definitive policy.  
 
-Is Perrin's Blend like Black Salve?
No it isn't.  Black Salve can be extremely invasive and painful, and can leave scars.  There is no ingredient in Perrin's Blend that is similar to black salve.  Perrin's Blend is non-invasive and for the most part, painless, and most of the time leave no scars.  There have been some reports of itching and/or tingling associated with using Perrin's Blend but nothing extreme.  
 
-How long does one container last?
How many applications in one container depend on the size on your lesion.  We have recently had a health food store owner comment that "this stuff [Perrin's Blend] lasts forever".  If you are treating something the size of a pencil eraser then you will probably get at least 75 applications out of one 1 oz. container.

-What is the shelf life of Perrin’s Blend?
