I started making this salve
I started making this salve three years ago when my daughter had a horrible itchy scalp and I couldn't find anything "clean" on the market that didn't cost an arm and a leg! This recipe is one that I've tweaked over time--I started using coconut oil, but switched to this recipe because the coconut oil would clump up over time in the tin and be grainy feeling when applied. This recipe stays nice and smooth and can be used for many different uses!
Some of the things we use this herbal garden salve for include a lip balm, for cracked/dry cuticles, cracking hands and feet (apply and then put on socks overnight), as a diaper or nipple balm (omit the essential oil), and as a general lotion. We start by infusing sweet almond oil with the dried petals of the calendula and lavender before adding shea butter and beeswax (and optional essential oil). If you want to check out our medicinal cutting garden plan, head back to our channel and check it out!
INGREDIENTS:
-2 cups sweet almond oil infused with 2 TBSP each dried lavender and calendula petals
-4 TBSP shea butter (unrefined)
-46.5 g grated beeswax or beeswax pastilles from a good source
-4.5 to 6 g essential oils (optional and flexible depending on how strongly you want the scent)
dried petals for sprinkling (optional)
You will also need enough tins to hold the recipe--you can always reduce the recipe as needed! As written, this makes about 12 of the 2 oz containers.
NOTE: I'm not a physician and this is not to be taken as medical advice! Always check with your doctor.
