Shelf Life Suggestions:  
  • Refrigeration will extend shelf life.
  • Oxygen is a big enemy to shelf life. Keep caps snug.
  • Write the date of purchase on the label in permanent marker. 
  • Avoid contaminating the oil with fingers or pipettes inserted into the bottle. Unsterilized items such as fingers, cotton balls and pipettes that come into contact with the oils will potentially contaminate them. Pour off the quantity you will need into a smaller container or bottle and work from that.
"Applied externally, Calendula is a powerful wound healer: soothing traumatized, inflamed tissue and stimulating rapid growth of healthy skin cells. Calendula not only helps wounds heal quicker, it reduces their risk of becoming infected and scarred. The astringent, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties of the herb grant its ability to not only treat, but prevent, sunburns – while its moistening nature hydrates dry, itchy skin." – Sade Musa @rootsofresistance

Wounds
Keloid scars are elevated, hard scars, usually with irregular edges. The scar is benign, non-contagious and sometimes accompanied by severe itchiness and pain. They can be especially painful when they occur as a result of breast surgery. Keloid scars are caused by an overgrowth of scar tissue at the site of an injury or incision and are more frequent in dark-skinned women than light-skinned women.

Adhesions are thought of as internal scar tissue. They are bands of scar tissue that bind together internal body surfaces that ought to be free to slide by each other. Adhesions are common after abdominal surgery but can form after breast surgery.

A therapeutic salve can be made by mixing 1 part melted beeswax to 3 parts infused oil. Infused oils should be stored in a cool dry place or in the refrigerator and preferably used within one year. If stored in the fridge, the oil may solidify. Bring to room temperature before using.

Testimony
1. The Calendula salve is amazing. My husband had a rash, we put some Calendula Salve on it before he went to bed, and it was gone when he woke up. My husband is a natural skeptic, and he was pleasantly shocked. It also soothed one of my kids' hives. It didn't take it away, but the salve really helped decrease the itching. - Mella
