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.

I purchased this salve for my 8 month old son. He has been getting some redness on his face and arms that we believe could be eczema. We have been using the salve on him before bed and it works wonderfully. We also used it on his face after he got some sun and it provided relief of the dryness and redness within 12 hours. I love the smell and the texture is very smooth. It goes on easily and isn’t greasy. I have also used it on my own face and absolutely love it. I will absolutely be purchasing more when we run out.

This salve is a miracle salve. Not only does it nourish my skin, it immediately relieves bug bite itches. I have purchased many for family and friends and they will request more when they run out! This is also perfect for new babies!! I have borrowed this out to my mother who used it for her scars on her legs after a year post op, and her scars are barely noticeable now!! I could rave all day about this salve but you really can’t go wrong with any of Deanna and Aarons products!!

We keep this on hand at all times. The grandkids cuts, scrapes and bites are so quick to heal. I use it for everything! And this helps with scars. Bonus! ..I knew this was awesome … I even have ordered and had to delivered to family. But listen, I need you to hear our most recent experience. We were camping and I was cooking on the blackstone. My almost 2 year old granddaughter came out of nowhere and grabbed the edge of the blackstone. I pushed her away quickly but her little hand was branded. 😥. I immediately put cold water and then ice. Then I used the salve the rest of the day. We had to put it on her baby doll too tho . Lol.. her blisters were absorbing by evening and by time we came home a few days later you had to search for where it was. Wonderful product. Thanks so much!
