Uses for Calendula Salve
Calendula salve works its magic by promoting cell repair and growth, coupled with its natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Apply calendula salve to irritated or dry skin, including on rashes, bites, wounds, stings, acne, scrapes, bruises or swelling, burns (including sunburn), cold sores, chapped lips, cracked cuticles, rough elbows and feet, or dry hands for general moisture. Calendula is known to help ease eczema and psoriasis, and also safely soothe cradle cap and diaper rash. I find it very soothing after shaving, to prevent or treat razor burn. Last but not least, calendula salve can also lessen the appearance of varicose veins and soften scars.

Our Calendula
The calendula used in this recipe is organically homegrown. We harvest whole flower heads daily at their peak freshness (and highest medicinal content) and dry them “low and slow” – on a living foods setting and never exceeding 105’F. Whole dry flower heads are then steeped in high-quality certified organic oils (described below) over several weeks using the solar infusion method. The highest concentration of medicinal resins are found in the green bud of the flower, not only the petals – whole flower is best!
Oils
This salve is created with calendula-infused organic sweet almond and organic sunflower oil. Sweet Almond Oil is a powerful moisturizer for dry and sensitive skin, including baby skin. It works to reduce excess sebum, inflammation, scars, dryness, eczema, and acne. Sweet almond oil can also lighten skin tone, dark circles, and support an even complexion. Sunflower oil is great for both dry, irritated skin or oily, acne-prone skin alike. It is gentle, lightweight, and will not clog pores. It is also highly moisturizing and healing, high in Vitamin E and oleic acid (omega 9 fatty acid) that provide natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It easily absorbs into the skin to lock in moisture, soothe and soften skin.

Wow!!!! Is the first thing I have to say about Deanna’s homemade calendula salve. I placed a bulk order as a gift to the oncology nurses I work with, for nurses week, and EVERYONE loves this product. It smells good, feels good and is so healing and rejuvenating! This is a wonderful “everything” salve and I can’t wait to share it with more of my friends & family
Aaron (Mr. DeannaCat) (store manager) –

I use my calendula salve daily (chapped lips, hands, kids, scratches, elect) since I bought it and LOVE it. ☺️ Can’t wait to buy more but also make my own. How can you not support someone who is also so darn supportive of all the diy’ers ☺️❤️
Helen (verified owner) –
This stuff is awesome!! It’s incredibly moisturizing and soothing. I get horrible little cuts that take forever to heal from washing my hands so much in the winter. I’ve started using this salve at night on my hands and in the morning the cuts are almost healed! I’ll never go without this salve – it’s a must- have all around healing powerhouse in a tin.

This is the best thing for eczema! It has help me so much with my mild to moderate eczema, when nothing else worked. It’s gentle, smells great, absorbs wonderfully and one little tin lasts a really long time. Also great for chapped lips, dry/cracked hands and minor burns and scrapes. Love this stuff!

I’ve always loved using calendula. I got hooked on it when I lived in Colorado and someone introduced me to it. I wanted to support a small business because their products are made with much more care and love than the big companies. I bought one tin for my mom and each time we use it,we compare notes and tell each other how this amazing healing salve has helped us both. Thank you for such a wonderful product ❤️

This salve is the only thing that has worked on my daughters severe dry skin. Her hands get raw in the winter and this is the first time they have been soothed. I also use this on scrapes and it heals them quickly! Couldn’t be happier!
Mary (verified owner) –
My dog had a nickle sized spot on his arm he had been licking raw. I put the calendula salve on it a few times and it cleared right up. My dog did not react to it being applied or having it on at all. He did not lick it off, because I think it soothed the pain/irritation. I was happy that I did not have to worry if he did lick it off, and the spot healed up so quickly!

I developed a skin condition on my legs this past year. I tried all kinds of lotions and potions to heal it, but nothing really helped. Eventually I saw my doctor who prescribed antibiotic and steroid cream, which did help a bit… but I still wanted to try and heal it without steroids. This Calendula salve was fantastic! My legs have healed with using this. I am now using it to help keep my kids hands healthy, with all of the hand washing they are doing this winter at school. I just bought more, as we were running low, and I can’t imagine being without this in our house now.

I purchased this salve for myself and my sister in law a while back and we both love it. If you have a bug bite, this will take away the itch quickly! Now I have used it on my extra dry hands from winter skin and all the hand washing and it feels so good and helps! I also got some for my mom as a gift and I know she will like it too. The texture is perfect, it absorbs well, and the scent is lovely.
