I've made a version of this recently myself and love it. I have worked with herbs for years and have always been happy with the results. My salve has a few more ingredients- I used both grape seed and apricot kernel oil to infuse my calendula, which worked nicely. I then mixed the oil with beeswax, as you did, but only a little as beeswax is so very hard. I also melted in some cocoa-butter and organic grass fed beef tallow (really). The beef tallow has a tiny odor so I used ylang ylang essential oil which made it smell heavenly. The tallow is worth the little bit of aroma because it is very rich and moisturizing. The result is the richest, most wonderfully hydrating salve you can imagine, and a little goes a very long way.

Hi Laura x Loved your video. I grow Calendula officinalis and harvest the flowers as they grow. I dry them on top of my Aga hotplate cover and store the petals in small glass jars. I add a teaspoon of dried petals to a cup of boiling water to make an infusion or ‘tea’. When it has cooled, I pour the liquid through a strainer. I soak small cotton wool balls in the liquid and apply to ‘hay-fever’ eyes. An ancient medieval recipe that really works. Xx

A lot of home remedies are benign (or do nothing at all to remedy a problem). It's just...there are *some* people out there (not all, just some) who are sort of...retreatist. They're "retreating" from modern life and find something charming or quaint with "days gone by." I find it neither quaint nor charming but actually alarming and sort of anti-progress.

I like the idea of grape-seed oil infusing the calendula flower in it by simply setting it on a sunny windowsill. I had no idea there was a difference between say Marigold and the officialnalus (sp?) type for medicinal purposes. Thank you so much for the information. But if one needs it quickly, coconut oil is wonderful at tolerating high temperatures and solidifies under say 80 degrees. I often use coconut oil alone on my face and rashes and sores. It is like a natural antibiotic on sores instead of a triple antibiotic if used regularly and is especially effective with inflammation if used on top of colloidal silver, and it’s great for combatting surface wrinkles when applying at night before bed. It does wonders. It also is great for ingesting in order to stave off and/or heal colon cancer (if one is not at risk for heart disease) and forgetfulness (some term as type 3 diabetes/Alzheimer’s) and Parkinson’s. And it aids in loosening stools for some. Anyway, if it needs to be more solid at higher temperatures since it does loosen up at around 75 degrees, the beeswax idea is a great one. Thank you so much for that, too. I just love your mom.

Hi! And don’t you look so beautiful! I’ve been making sales and homemade soaps for my family and friends (and retail) for 20 years. I started because my hubs had eczema, which have since disappeared for good. My son developed it too and his disappeared after I began using our homemade goods. I would encourage you to add Shea butter and cocoa butter. These are the miracle additions that made all the difference. You must melt them low and slow to prevent graininess (from the Shea butter). As a fellow life long gardener and busy mom, maker, cook, and avid hand washer, You’ll be glad you made these wonder how you ever lived without them!, I promise. Ps. I encourage you to use only therapeutic grade essential oil to steer away form the chemically derived ones. Do-Terra is my fav. Take care.

My cousin has a calendula farm here just outside of Seattle and her whole business is skin care products made from calendula

I make Cold Processed soap, lotion and candles. I think it is wonderful to have talents like this for everyone to be blessed with.

Love this!!! It's so nice to have something that has 4 ingredients and you can pronounce all of them - and I'm a chemist!! I am going to grow some Calendula this year and try making this.

Loved this! I usually buy items like this at our local farmers market.
