Rescue Me - A soothing Blend for Minor Skin Irritations, cuts, and burns
Rescue Me! A soothing infusion of medicinal herbs and flowers to ease the irritation of minor skin problems, burns, even diaper rash!
Marigold (calendula officinalis) is admired for many various reasons. Some of them being well known in the kitchen and medicine cabinet, but just as much for it's beauty and aroma!
There are several ways you can utilize the dried or fresh flowers and here are few that may help you understand the importance of this small flower.
The dried flowers can be used to garnish your salad, flavor broth, stew, soups or other
simmering dishes. You can also pick them fresh and sprinkle them in your salad, mix them together in fruit dishes, jellies, or even use them as decorative garnish over iced muffins, cakes and cookies.
Many gardeners also know that the marigold will keep those pesky little leaf gnawers away from your favorite garden plant and use them to chase away these pesky critters.
Personally, I enjoy making a tea out of this beautiful little flower - just seep a few flowerets in a cup of hot water and it will help in the digestive area as well as give an added dose of what is needed for the liver and kidneys.
Need a natural beautiful yellow color to enhance your butter or cheeses, or to please a little child? Boil the flowers until you get the desired color - absolutely beautiful!
There are many ways to extract the benefits of the beautiful little calendula flower. You can make infusions or tinctures with either the standard alcohol base, or a vinegar or even water base. One of my favorite infusions is an olive oil and calendula that is simmered on a sunny windowsill for several weeks and then made into healing balms and salves.
In our RESCUE ME! healing salve, we've used our famous Calendula Olive Oil Infusion, Lavender Olive Oil Infusion and Patchouli Olive Oil Infusion to which pure essential oils of Tea Tree and Lavender have been added and then a bit of natural unrefined beeswax to allow the balm to glide on extra smooth.
This ingredients in this blend are anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiseptic and often used for skin infections and irritations. RESCUE ME! also helps to heal dry or cracked skin and has had reports of excellent treatment for severe sunburn, eczema, acne, and other skin disorders too numerous to name. The calendula infusion along with the lavender and patchouli infusions is one of the best winter healing creams that will penetrate through the skin and carry the herbal healing powers into the body stimulating the self healing process.
This wonderful blend was designed to offer a healing mix of organic Olive Oil infused with the healing properties of natural, wild crafted Lavender leaves, Patchouli leaves and Calendula Petals with natural unrefined beeswax to bring it together in a smooth, creamy salve. This soothing salve literally melts on contact and is immediately absorbed into the skin and feels like silk.
The healing qualities of each ingredient adds to the benefits of this salve and helps to rejuvenate the skin and begin the healing process more quickly. Keep one in the kitchen, one in the bath and one in your purse for quick access!
