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.

O my goodness the instant relief on my eyelid eczema flare up!! The itching stopped immediately! I’ve even used it all over my face as face moisturizer while I was traveling and its light and smells bright. It has a thinner texture, not too much beeswax so it glides over the skin easily. I only wish it came in a lipgloss type form thats easier to put it on my eyes multiple times a day without having to keep washing my hands. Excellent salve, feels amazing, highly recommend!

This product is wonderful! It have been a life saver for my husband and I’s frequent run ins with poison oak on our homestead! It has minimal scent, and absorbs nicely. I use it as an evening hand salve, nothing but good things to say!

It is a lovely salve. I bought for my husband. He has rosacea. He uses the salve after shaving and it is very calming and soothing on his skin. It is a wonderful soothing balm and I would purchase it again.
