Calendula Salve – all natural balm, soothes rashes, itching, dry skin

Ah Calendula! Is there anything you can’t do?

This salve can be used for most skin irritations including dermatitis, mild burns, rashes and bites.

Calendula also brightens the complexion and I even dab this salve on a daily face moisturiser.

Benefits of Calendula:

• Antimicrobial – destroys & prevents the growth of micro-organisms including bacteria, viruses and fungi.
• Anti-inflammatory – helps reduce inflammation and swelling.

• Helps relieve the effects of burns including sunburn.
• Acts as an antiseptic for abrasions and scrapes (do not apply to bleeding or open wounds). Can be used for fungal infections.
