Guest guest Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Calendula Skin Oil Calendula, Calendula officinalis and C. Arvense,are cheerful, orange gold pot marigolds" noted for their antiseptic and healing properties, especially for the skin. These flowers are bright garden favourites and wild roadside escapees long sought for their therapeutic qualities. Use this calendula skin oil to gently rub on irritated skin, minor burns, acne, or fungal conditions. In a medium heat-proof glass bowl, pour the oil over the herbs. Stir well. Place in a 150-degree oven for about 4 hours. Check and Stir the mixture once an hour. Remove from the oven and pour through a gauze or muslin strainer. Allow the oil to drip clear and squeeze the remaining oil from the herbs. Measure, bottle, and label half of this oil. With the remaining half of the oil, you can make calendula salve, a topical skin dressing for sensitive areas, especially chapped lips. Suzi What is a weed?
