Description
Natural calendula salve for everyday skin conditioning
A rich and golden salve that conditions, improves, and protects the skin. To make this natural calendula salve, I seep the entire dried flower heads in a light carrier oil then blend it with protective and conditioning beeswax and shea butter. Beeswax helps lock moisture and the other ingredients in while forming a light protective barrier on the skin. Shea butter is a rich plant-based oil that restores elasticity. Natural Calendula Salve also contains sweet almond oil, a light-feeling oil excellent for all skin types. The infused calendula petals also give this balm a lovely golden colour.
Many people know that calendula flowers contain bioactive constituents that could help speed up the healing of minor wounds and burns. However, Natural Calendula Salve is not a medicinal product, and I cannot provide medical advice. However, you can read other purchaser’s experiences with using the product in the reviews tabĀ and the testimonials below.
A recipe sharing how to make calendula salve is in the maker’s book, A Woman’s Garden, and also in Calendula: A Guide to Growing and Using it in Skincare.
The Calendula Salve is the best thing I have bought in a long time. Although not suffering from eczema, I have scaly skin on my face which is always more of a problem in the winter. I have tried many products over the years, including pure oils, but nothing matches the efficiency of this natural salve. Itās easy to use, as well as economical as you need very little and it keeps the skin hydrated for a long time. I have now recommended it to several people.
The calendula salve is a lovely product for dry skin. Having suffered with itchy eczema for decades you will not be surprised to hear I have tried every cream and potion under the sun and I am very pleased to say that i just love this salve. It is very soft and creamy to apply and gives relief. I love the fact that there are few ingredients in it so nothing to confuse what I might or might not be allergic to. Just the calming calendula. Thank you.

Iāve been using this Calendula salve for a couple of weeks now; I can only tell you that itās incredible. I had a troublesome patch of skin that wasnāt healing with anything else. Within 12 hours of using this salve the healing process was visibly underway. Two weeks later, and itās done! Iāve been using it daily in different places, to give it a thorough test, and I can see the difference in my skin already. It smells divine – light but soothing. The waxy base means that you need very little – I can see this lasting for months, even with daily use. I canāt recommend this salve highly enough, and to top it off, Tanya gets to work on orders straight away so thereās a super efficient service to match the excellence of Tanyaās products.

I have just received my first order this week. I am absolutely over the moon, the soaps are so beautiful you really feel as though you are spoiling and treating yourself. The natural calendula salve is amazing, I have tried many creams on my very very dry feet and nothing has worked, last night I tried the salve and cannot find the words to describe how it worked, Iām totally converted. The service is second to non and came within 2 days of ordering, if you havenāt tried anything from lovely greens please do, you will not be disappointed. Sign up to Tanyaās newsletter too they are very informative. Iām so glad I watched gardeners world on catch up and saw Tanya, no going back now. Sorry for the length of this Iām just so happy with my purchases.

I just wanted to give a huge thank you for your wonderful calendula balm. Six weeks ago I had knee replacement surgery resulting in a scar, about 10 inches long. Every morning, as soon as it was safe to do so, I rubbed the balm all over it and gently massaged. The results have been brilliant. I’ve never had scarring heal up so quickly and efficiently, and the balm has a gently warming and soothing quality that is making it a pleasure to use.

I cannot say enough good things about the Natural Calendula Salve that I used in my pregnancy from Lovely Greens. I love natural ingredient products and this felt lovely on my skin. It smells divine and a little goes a long way too.

I love this stuff! I add a bit of Helichrysum Essential Oil into the middle of the balm and mix it in. That way I have the option of my Helichrysum enhanced balm or the regular balm. I feel the Helichrysum helps my skin problems, along with the Calendula. I add 5-6 drops.

Amazing to apply. So silky soft and feels great on my skin, both face and hands which have long been sensitive and dry. Beautiful mild scent. A real luxury for me even though the price is absolutely reasonable. Apply just a smidgen and it’ll last most of the day. Real stuff.
