Calendula is magic!
This new experiment is knocking my socks off!
This seems to be the year I find out just how powerful calendula is. I wrote about how it helped a wound heal in an earlier post.
Why revisit? I was moved to try a drop of my calendula oil on a couple of weird AF spots on my legs. Results are amazing. So I made a video.
In it, I share my journey with making and using calendula oil, a game-changer for my skincare routine. And I’ve got quite the skin care routine!
I infused calendula flowers in a mixture of extra-virgin olive oil, extra-virgin coconut oil, and MCT oil and let it sit in the dark for a long, long time. This gorgeous oil sits on the shelf in my bathroom, and apparently, it's been whispering healing suggestions to me since I decanted it.
I'm so stoked that my aging skin likes this kind of nurturing and responds like this!
Of course, I'm not a doctor, and your mileage may vary. Start slow and observe. Or... You do you!
