Calendula Infused Oil or Cream can be used for skin irritation due to chafing, wind, cold or dry air exposure, to help heal dry, cracked or itchy skin, cuts, infected and inflamed wounds, hard-to-heal sores. It may applied to sore nipples during lactation and worn to prevent stretch marks. Calendula Infused Oil or Cream has been known to decrease the inflammation of sprains, stings, and other swellings, soothes skin irritations, stimulates wound healing, and soothes pain. Calendula oil is often used to aid in lessening scarring after wounds heal and after stitches are removed.
Footnote: I used this blend during my first (and last!) pregnancy. And after the ravages of pregnancy and breastfeeding for nine months I did not have one stretch mark! And for a 41-42-year-old I thought this was pretty remarkable and can only attribute it to my strict regime of nourishing my skin with the balm daily. |
