Calendula Officianalis (also known as pot marigold). It is from the asteraceae family. The yellow and orange colour alone of these amazing flowers are sufficient to brighten up anyone’s day but calendula is one of nature’s finest for helping with the following:
 
Healing burns
Minor scrapes
Nappy rash
Sunburn and bruises
It also also aids with inflammatory skin conditions (e.g. acne)
It is excellent for use on the most sensitive skin but can also be used on eczema, especially in young children.
 
Earth Magic’s calendula salve does not contain any essential oils and is grown, collected, dried and extracted in County Wicklow.
 
Using Extra Virgin Olive Oil and sweet almond oil this salve is definitely one to have in the medicinal toolbox.
