To make calendula salve you will want a small saucepan. Fill it halfway (amount depending on your pot/jar size) with water. Place a glass measuring cup, jar or a glass or metal bowl into the pan, you can also use a double boiler if you have one, add all of your ingredients-
100 grams Calendula infused oil
15 grams Beeswax
15 drops of Essential oils (see below for oil suggestions)
Bring to a boil stirring constantly. Once everything has melted and combined pour it into jars or tins. Do NOT use plastic containers. This recipe makes two 4oz jars for us.
Oil Suggestions-
All of these essentials have different properties that are beneficial to the skin. A quick google for your skin type or condition should give you a better idea of what to use specifically for what you are looking to heal or as always use what you have!
