Calendula Lavender Healing Organic Cream

Organic healing for scars, rashes, eczema, irritations & burns - perfect for healing skin or maintaining skin that is prone to eczema.

Calendula flowers are plucked first thing in the morning - before the heat of the day compromises their rich healing resins-  then the long process of making oils & tinctures begins, and, in time, we make this cream.

We created this cream for a friend who had developed a rash when working in her garden.  It wasn't poison ivy, and everything she did to heal it failed: cortisone creams, prescription creams, petrolatum-based ointments.  After two days of applying our Calendula Lavender Healing Organic Cream, the rash that had plagued her for weeks was on its way to healing - finally.  In a week, her skin had completely cleared up.

Another friend uses this to keep his mysterious eczema at bay.  He unconsciously scratches at the patches on his arms, and Herb Garden Natural's Calendula Lavender Cream relieves the itching, heals his skin and breaks the habit of tearing at himself.

Calendula and lavender have been used by herbalists for centuries to heal burns, nicks, eczema, rashes. and scars (even old ones). Calendula and lavender in creams, ointments and plasters compliment each other for very effective healing. Calendula staunches bleeding and lavender is a respected antimicrobial.  Both were used during wars that predate modern medicines.

Often the source of a skin irritation comes from commercial soap.  If you haven't switched to natural soaps yet, here are a couple of nice ones to try with Calendula Lavender Cream.
