2 ounces of freshly picked Calendula
* 7 ounces of Vaseline
When Vaseline is melted over low heat, add the Canlendula and bring mixture to a boil, simmer for about 12 minutes, stirring well. Strain through fine gauze or cotton squeezing out all of the liquid (a press works well for this). Pour contents into a container (reuse the Vaseline container).
Note: It is best to do this in a steel pot. Take precautions to avoid burns.
To use: Rub on minor localized skin irritations. Calendula has anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties.
